2008 Suzuki B-King Pictures Suzuki's Hayabusa is an unabashed beast, but despite the fully-faired bike's staggering performance it can sometimes visually blend into the sportbike landscape.

Ditching the 'Busa's swollen superbike looks, Suzuki went for something totally different when they built a naked bike around the 'Busa's 1,340cc powerplant. Though the B-King's inline-4 engine is slightly detuned, it still packs a remarkable punch... but more on that later, for now let's take a look at a photo gallery of the 2008 Suzuki B-King, which includes shots of its faceted bodywork, flat seat, and massive, plastic shrouded exhaust.

Yuk ! It’s almost as big a styling nightmare as the Hibachi!

Bought the King 12/26 – rode it home 39 miles in the dark, in the rain, mid 30’s, brand new slick as ice tires… scared the crap out of me. Outrageous!!! I love it!

I have owned a B King for six months and almost 4,000 miles. Love it. I am 72 in a few days and feel perfectly safe on this bike. Now tell me, why did you photograph the King you had against that cluttered up, psychedelic wall? Very distracting. I was looking for some stock photos of a King to send someone, found your site, and I still have to keep looking to find a good side profile.
