£1,000 off B-King, more luxury for Burgman
New deals from Suzuki include a massive reduction on the wild B-King, while the Burgman scooter goes further upmarket.
The flamboyantly-styled B-King, one of the most powerful naked bikes available thanks to its detuned Hayabusa motor, has had a £1,000 price cut to £8,116 on the road.
The B-King started life as a wild concept show bike, but it generated so much interest that Suzuki decided to put it into full production, creating a big, head-turning bike with massive performance. There are many distinctive styling cues, including the huge, high-rise twin silencers, the Thirties streamliner-style headlamp and indicators set into the broad fuel tank.
Yet, like the Hayabusa, the B-King is an easy-going bike to ride when you want it to be, and surprisingly manoeuvrable for a machine of this size. That big price cut makes it look a lot better.
Suzuki has launched a new, high-spec version of the Burgman scooter, one of only a handful of scooters on the market that has enough space beneath the seat for a briefcase – there’s a relatively cavernous 62 litres of usefully shaped space under there.
The Burgman 400ZA has the same 400cc, fuel-injected, single-cylinder engine as the standard version, but also features ABS brakes, heated grips, hand guards, passenger backrest, titanium-coloured wheels, a brown seat and a wood-finish dash. The price is £5,400 compared with £4,710 for the stock Burgman 400.
