Crescent Suzuki's neat mods on the B-King cost £2,500 if they do it for you or they'll flog you a a new one for a fiver under 10 grand.
Superbike.co.uk – those nice chaps who have already supercharged their own GSX1300 - reports today: "Suzuki's B-King is a bit of a Marmite bike. Folk love them or hate them, mostly due to the 'radical' design of the back end and exhaust system.
"The stock cans, heatshield and plastic shrouds make for a challenging look, and for many potential riders, it's a deal breaker.
"Which is a real shame, because as a bike to ride, the B-King is an absolute stormer, with oodles of bhp and very capable handling. So Suzuki specialists Crescent Suzuki has put together this extremely pretty special edition B-King.
"On paper, it's a pretty simple package of changes: a side-mounted Akrapovic silencer, Power Commander, Crescent's own carbon undertray and tail tidy, Renthal Fat Bars, chrome-effect powder-coat wheels and some matt-black paint detailing. But the effect is much more than you'd expect: the bike looks radically different from stock, with a much smaller, harder look to it. On the road, the Akrapovic can adds some noise and a bit of pep, as well as losing a heap of weight.
"Having said that, the performance isn't so far off stock, with a few more BHP available through the rev range."
