busa doesnt look too different but im not sure about the masive lump on the seat! i guess the new engine package will be the big part thou!

i really liked the old busa hope this one is alright

I do like both

The Busa looks same old, and whats with the exhausts on the B King, I didn't look like that Seven years ago.






Yes, the B King's exhaust being sooo big has something to do with exhaust emissions. Pity it's not a Yamaha.

when are Suzuki going to make a pretty bike?
the new GSXR 600 and 750 look quite nice but the 1000 and Hayabusa look quite ugly to me, the double exhaust really lets them down.

im really tempted to go for an older Busa tbh

esp seeing the new one

ive got a busa, theres a big debate over the new one on the busa forum i frequent...with the general feeling that its not been that well liked.A lot of it looks the same,overall style and frame particulary, the brakes will be a welcome improvement but the back end is hideous...truly awful..a real baboons ass of a job

The weight has gone up(blame the euro 3 emissions regulations for that one) but its more of a evolution than a revolution the first one was..the good news is most of want to keep our old bikes so that'll save me some £££

I'm glad to see they aint messed up the Busa, i'm sure that will be a proper classic one day. the B king is rank though

I would love to but don;t think I would get much change from 1K for insurace. saying that I phoned aQuote for a quote and as they change some of the NCB from my car ( no only ride a bike) I could get 4 NBC after just 1 year of riding.

Im still a ZX12R person , the eyeabuser looks no different , and the B king looks stupid with those cans ,

I'm quite glad the busa is so similar to the old one (which looks better now than it did at launch). In fact I think the new one looks worse. Which is good for me, I just bought a ZZR1400 and thought about waiting for the new 'busa. Glad I didn't now.
