New look for 2010 Suzuki B-King

Flashy paintjob for Suzuki's naked 1300cc brute

Posted: 23 February 2010
by Visordown News


IN WHAT looks like an attempt to shift one of Suzuki's worst-selling motorcycles of the past few years, the company have given the ill-fated B-King a cosmetic makeover for 2010.

Reports in this morning's Spanish press show the 1300cc naked will now be available in an iconic Suzuki blue/white, complete with 70s style gold rims.

Like the new look? We do, but Suzuki could have got ride of those hideous exhausts while they were at it

UK pricing and availability is TBA.

It was hideous as a concept and is still hideous now. What were Suzuki thinking!!!!!!!!!!!

...disagree, the concept looked great - they then thought "we came up with this concept 5 years ago so we had better change the way it looks slightly" - and now it is fugly!!

What gets me more riled, is I would have bought this bike if:

1. it had stayed to the original look

and 

2. it wasn't designed for a frikken midget.......i mean come on, its a big powerful naked bike......why can only midgets sit on it comfortably?

ice.
