Default Suzuki B-King 600 - Mmmmm

Front page on MCN today. This looks awesome. Borrows the engine from the GSXR6, 100bhp.

May have to abandon the SV for this beaut when its out later this year! £5,500 (est).


What'ya think?

Is that definately going to production then? No more Bandit 6s once it does, I reckon. I want one, with a different tail section losing the grabs, a black swingarm, differet exhaust, and different headlights. Anyone know how different hte present 600 and 750 engines are physically?

Only thing is, if it does go ahead will it be an honest to god GSXR600 motor or a detuned version, or even an old one? Iut looks like a recent model but remember, the Bandit 6 we have today can be said to be GSXR engined

Very little.

Also, I really fancy calling into my local Suzuki dealership... "I want one of those... But will you discount me if I don't take the engine?"
