Every year, always appear new motorcycle models, in this 2009 Japanese issue two motorcycle cool. Two large-moto chunkies from Japan - the Suzuki B-King and the Yamaha V-Max akan each other's throats. We will, of course, have to wait for some time to fully shootout between the two bikes, but let's see how fast they compare in the specs sheet department.
In the Suzuki B-King, who weighs 262 kg, which is installed with the Hayabusa's 1340cc, DOHC, 16-valve inline-four that pumps out 160 horsepower. With the bike in the quarter mile 10.23 seconds and a maximum speed of around 250km / h. 'Twist the throttle and feel your work as an F-18 medium once at the end of an aircraft carrier - wide-open acceleration from the dead is a strong,' says Motorcycle-USA.
B-King's twin-spar cast aluminum chassis and three-piece aluminum swingarm enough to handle the task of its 160-horse, and the suspension - 43mm USD fork at the front and the rear monoshock - fully adjustable. 'While cornering, suspension was the two companies and responsive, a lot of land with permission, but the power down a pothole-laden roads LA stated far plusher ride than with the GSX-R sportbike,' says Motorcycle-USA.
The 2009 Yamaha V-Max, which unveiled a new, not yet tested, but at least on paper, the bike seems to have all the things the right to take the B-King. Compared with the B-King, Mr Max packs a larger, more powerful engine - a 1679cc, DOHC, 16-valve v4 which produces a surprising 197bhp. But the V-Max also weighs 307 kg - 47kg more than B-King - which is rather negates its almost 40bh
p power advantage over Suzuki.V-Max chassis is also a twin-spar aluminum unit, with CF die-cast extruded aluminum subframe. There's a 52mm telescopic cartridge fork in the front and monoshock at the back - well that ends fully adjustable. And as the B-King, the new V-Max is available with anti-lock brakes.
Suzuki has the edge in price - B-King cost U.S. $ 13,000 while the Yamaha V-Max, at U.S. $ 18,000 more expensive. Do you want to have one?
