I went to my local Suzuki/Kawasaki dealership today after work. I wanted to check out the new Hayabusa and B-King in person (why does the 'Zuki/Kawi dealer ALWAYS get the new '08 models before the Honda dealer does???). Anyways, they had a B-King in stock, and man was it UGLY. I thought from all the mag articles I'd read on it that I would like it... wrong... looks like a fat piece of sh!t with 181HP. It looks WAY better in a magazine than it does in person.
The salesman invited me to swing a leg over, so I did. The seat is so wide that I could barely get both feet flat on the floor. The handlebars weren't that comfy either. I've been thinking about getting a naked bike to go along with my CBR, and I have decided that the B-King ain't it!

Don't go to Honda 'cause they don't have the '08 1krr's yet. Although the '08 600rr grafitti is worth takin'a gander at.
