If you want the Hayabusa-powered B-King, vote now!

Suzuki is listening intently to reaction to its 250bhp supercharged B-King prototype and if what it hears is positive the brutal but stylish streetfighter could be going into production.

You can make a posting in our TALK NEWS bulletin board in TALK BIKES (see link right) or you e-mail mcn.letters@emap.com with B-King in the subject line. We’ll forward all your thoughts to Suzuki.

Suzuki is so serious about sounding out British riders’ opinions on this bike that it is shipping it all the way from Japan to show it at the MCN-backed Ally Pally show.

The show runs from January 26 to February 3, 2002. The advance ticket hotline is on 01440-704774. Call it for discounted tickets.

The Hayabusa-powered B-King won’t arrive until January 29, but it will stay at the London show until February 3. Suzuki will have people there to hear your comments, too.

If you are planning to ride down to the show you can claim a £20 voucher from Carole Nash. The insurance broker has set up a free secure bike park and everyone who uses it will be given a ticket with a reference number.

This entitles you to a £20 discount when you get an alarm fitted by Nash during 2002.

WE’RE GIVING AWAY TICKETS ALL THIS WEEK TO THE ALLY PALLY SHOW. KEEP CHECKING THE SITE FOR DAILY COMPETITIONS.
