Mmm, burger king.

I think it looks like a sack of **** tbh, but, what do I know? It also looks a bit like Magneto.

edit- what's the point of a boost king without any boost? If the power was too much they should have gone smaller and supercharged, that'd be a bit more interesting.

Looks very wide to me dude...whats screen resolution you using??

Dan...The top image is a studio pic and probably photo shopped to look better than good, marketing innit?
The bottom one just looks like a crap photo! Dull & lifeless!

I admit the B-king does look like something out of a manga cartoon!
..but I do like these street, muscle, aggressive, burn rubber type machines of late! Makes a refreshing change to move on from the jelly mould era!

175 at back wheel and no fairing?? Do you have to shackle your wrists to the bars or summat??
