Hi all, looking to purchase a B-King, got a line on a California model. My question is, is there any difference in power between this and the 49 state model? Any differences besides emissions?
Thanks,

Chris

Re: New Member

All U.S. B-King's are 50-state.
Good luck with your purchase...you won't regret it!

Re: New Member

Not really. We all have the same emissions. If you are concern about the power then the question here really is if the king you looking at is the faster more powerfull "custom" paint cool looking one of a kind silver model or is it just the black one.

Re: New Member

Thanks guys, I just noticed the added weight (2 lbs) and the .5 liter less fuel capacity on the specs for the Cali model. Yes its a black one but only has 600 miles on it. Looking at some silvers units as well, haven't seen them in person yet, but all are 49 stater's. I have seen a black one and it looked good.

Hm i thought there wasnt any difference in the models. Anyway do yourself a favor and look at the silver one as well. The one who sold it to the dealer or is selling in private probably is selling it or sold it to get the silver one.

Thats a charcoal canister. Its role is to catch fuel vapors from the emissions system.

Once you getyour bike, tell everyone that it is a grenade launcher. laugh
