    Not a GS but couldn't pass it up aka B King

    Was down in San Antonio for a few days and came across an 08 B King. Loaded it up in the back of my truck and took her to her new home.

    Roll on power is just amazing, almost triple speed in first gear ! Can't wait until I take her to the track along with the GS once I get use to riding her.

        Thanks ! I was doing 140 mph in 3rd gear this morning and thought it was more of a down force wing thingy ?

        Hey Chef1366 all I've seen for prices is $6500 to $10,000. I paid $6900 plus all the tax stuff. It was owned by a retired San Antonio Police guy who took really good care of it. He wanted to buy it back but hard cash wins every time.

            such a trippy looking bike. I suppose if we dont get the bandit 1400s this is a pretty ok substitute.

              I've been thinking of sitting for the CA bar when I get back. I'll read up on CA bond rules and traffic misdemeanors.

                Are you suggesting that once you get your shingle that Jake will be in need of your services?
