2008 Suzuki B-King 1340 onboard Snake Pass!

[pomplumber]

looks like you had a good day out,always prefer going up from glossop easier to wind on and stop quick

[MOTACJ]

You are awesome, friend. I truely loved this video. Also, Mario guitar at the end really shows how badass your are.

[jessop121]

SSSSNAKE PASSSS EXCELLENT

[cerr820710]

I can almost feel the wind ... and bugs: P

[TheDemonGimp]

you bikers are fucking crazy.

[deadmanprodinc]

Wow, you got there 1st......you missed the journey!

[darthells]

Nice video. The Snake pass used to be a brilliant road but too many vans and trucks on it that should just use the woodhead instead - leave it to us! Know this road really well and can getup to silly speeds even in my VW T5 130! Best bit is about 5 min 15, new stretch retarmacced well. Watch out for the filth just before the Snake Pass Inn...

[darthells]

Nice video. The Snake pass used to be a brilliant road but too many vans and trucks on it that should just use the woodhead instead - leave it to us! Know this road really well, Its pretty good in my van too, a VW T5 130, dont really have to slow down for the corners as much as the bikers, which is nice!

[kilobitti]

Being the speed junkie I am, I probably wouldn't survive a day on a bike like that.

[Podobnoniewidze]

@kilobitti I wouldn't survive an hour, oh maybe if this bike stays in the garage for the first 55 minutes as i bought it.

[ghfisanotti]

I never ran that fast, but most of all, I never did it driving on the wrong side of the road! ;-)

Now seriously, great vid, thanks!

[iSeiren]

Looks like a nice run, i can see part of the road from my house :P.

[EinkOLED]

I've been through the snakes road on my 125cc moped and could achieve 40mph through the corners due to confidence, although it could easily managed probably 66 mph through the corners.

I don't think I could managed anything above 300cc due to the risks of falling into fast oncoming traffic, particularly HGV's.

I've also driven geared 125's but are paricularly slow and lacking in torque.

[daystate12345678]

raptorama - great road, you should try it on a quicker bike, you'd love it.

[Buggusmac]

@daystate12345678

Quicker bike, lighter maybe you mean?? My Bking will exceed all posted hwy speed limits in 1st gear. Quick enough for ya??

[daystate12345678]

@Buggusmac - no, most can do that. my gsxr went from 25 to top speed without changing out of top gear.

[crashball30]

Shit road, to much holiday traffic, fuck that

[TheRebekaa]

I'm more Pop''100''More Than Walking this garbage! /watch?v=P5AbthEm89c

I Portugues- Sou mais minha ''Pop 100'' Andar Mais Do Que esse lixo !!

/watch?v=P5AbthEm89c

[blipco5]

Here I am watching this video again. About a year ago I almost bought a brand new left over B King (at an unbelievable price) because of this video. Ride safe.

[goforkranthi79]

@4:39 the tape he used for fixin the cam gave way!! but yeah amazing feeling ending the day with your bike, cruising in to the horizon... nothing beats that!!

[jdbeyers]

@TimClynes Why was the light blue ford in the way of the biker?

[sakuran30]

(´･ω･`) ﾎｽｲ...

[alsa1980]

Great video and nice bike, although I am worried at how aggressive you are towards some of the cars you wish to overtake! Still, great viewing, you take care of yourself out there!

[esnik135]

ME FA SI NA ANDAR EN MOTO SOY FANSA NUMERO 1 EN MOTOS

AMO ALAS MOTOS

[robertzombie666]

Its like my dreams, i hope to ride a suzuki b king or boulevard M109 soon! great video!

[62imperial62]

that was totaly wicked!!!!

[smokeyvv]

I usually ride a Z1000 but i think im getting one of these next summer. I dont like lean over sport bikes, theres too many of them around and they fuckin suck.... well u know what i mean.

[GIGABACHI]

LOL, Is that the EMPTY LOGO blinking inside the tach's ride side ? LMAO. Is she a thirsty one or what?

[NBrendo]

contra mao naum maluko e q nesse pais a mao e ao contrario

[123serioussam]

nice roads i live near whitby if you ever been bikers come from all over to here.

[sammistad]

Need the speed of travel. What was the average speed of travel on that trip?

[RRRRRR11111111111111]

cada curva tem uma curva OO

[RRRRRR11111111111111]

comtra-mão?

[02wheels]

very nice run.. i like that b-king its one sexy beast.

[leoTARDmrHecka]

dude you're driving on the wrong side of the road!!!! lucky you everyone else there is also... bunch of wackys.

[pbrucpaul]

180 horses. Wher are the wings!?

[PsionBiker]

Scheiß Werbung, muss das sein?

[FrontSideBus]

Lol @ speedo covered with Gaffer tape :)

[xXMC023Xx]

I think a law should be enforced all on the same side of the road, same language etc.

would help you enjoy the little things in life, like not driving on the incorrect / "right" side of the road

[argueallthetime]

just bought one of these...power is amazing and the head up posistion is much better 4 road riding than a full on sports bike.....

[Entropy03021990]

How possible it is a 2008 suzuki b-king if the video is from 2007?

[FreshNoobDancer]

@Entropy03021990 lol...where have u been when it comes to cars, motorcycles, ect they always release something as the next years model.

[Entropy03021990]

@FreshNoobDancer ah ok 

[Olliedfox]

lol loving the acoustic 'back in black'

[KeukaRyder]

Pretty cool. Lots of peg scraping.

[Gottesritter]

at 7:47 is it the third or second gear? :D

[lbennyn]

I love snake pass. I only have a moped (Piaggio nrg 50cc) But it is still fun! :)

[beuchars]

Do you think you could slow down next time so I could enjoy the senery? Awesome show and thanks for sharing.

[gixxerboy555]

Hi,...what "tyres" on the bike please?

[marcelomorf]

[acsuperman3]

[kernowrock555]

[JugglerPompeyPirates]

Hey man great video... anyone that asks why I like bikes I send here to watch this vid... bijes are about bends, speed and the ability to pass things in a jiffy. Thanks for the vid man.

[Afonso2001br]

Doesn't it have a speedometer?

[1200sbeemer]

Plenty of stoping power, handles great in the turns, very smooth,ample amounts of power,wind is bad at high speeds though but what a bike. Got mine Sat, silver and black. Love it! Only made 1500 of them get one before they are gone. That is what the dealer told me, i may be wrong, Greg.

[Runjari]

Yeeessssssssssssss....!!!!!!!!­! Tear along the Dotted line or just about anything else ye can find.. Just Love these B-Kings.. Next on the shoppin list.. PC3, Quickshifter,Pipes.. bla bla

Big Retro with Busa motor === Fun Fun Fun

Quelle putain de bécane !!!!

[rozza38]

Why don't motorbikes have to stay inside double white lines?

[Gboy722]

amazing

[jamescgale]

Snake pass is the shit.

[Jordan70626]

Que merda... geral na contramão! hahahahah

[thiagoteles0]

@Jordan70626 Essa porra é na Inglaterra seu maluco!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Procure se informar antes de falar besteira.

[Jordan70626]

@thiagoteles0 Maluco és tú. Desprovido de capacidade intelectual ao extremo de não perceber quando alguém faz uma piada.

[Jordan70626]

Aos idiotas que me negativaram, tente perceber a ironia nas minhas palavras. EU FIZ UMA PIADA...

[shlaw0410]

The power of this bike is TOO MUCH, if you pay close attention you will notice with EVERY shift the front wheel lifts a little... . I would strongly suggest that ANYONE who drives this bike NOT bring a passenger, this could be dealdly!!! I have had the experience!!! TRUST ME!!!

[xerameosovo]

how fast this shit can go ? some bikes just scares me...

[MeeGra123]

7:15 / 9:51

you got really fast. i think im going to look for the light speed button on my bike...

really nice video a wish we had so beautiful roads :(

[BeeeAitchPeee]

...ahhhhhh Roll on warmer days when the snows gone and the Snake Pass becomes a bikers playground once more! Smooth riding btw

[tougeRSTi]

2:57-3:21 - LOL, that's by far the LONGEST trail braking I have ever seen. But then again, that's your average driver.

[rickmiles85]

@tougeRSTi I couldnt agree more! Makes you wonder what the hell they are breaking for, yes its a tight bend but if you know the road you can plan for it and lets be honest, you can spot pricks like that from a mile off on a bike 1. sat behined a van, any self respecting driver would have passed it by that point (there are plenty of opportunites leaving glossop) and 2. he's driving what looks like a laguna estate which says he has no interest in cars thus be shit at driving!

[48755003]

This is a amazing bike!!

[kingkongpoontang]

Great stuff reminds me of being out on my k7 lc bandit.. and big respect for having the bo-locks to buy a b-king i would if i had the cash.... and i know you can get a good deal theese days!

[terainfo]

Lol, everybody on wrong way kkkkkk

[trancedesigner]

everybody on wrong way..... :)

[v4loos]

very nice movie

[jairrules]

lovely bike, u can go faster than that, dont you?

[STINAC46]

great riding mate :)

~ Cheers ~

[Jessie6350]

Totally awesome! I've done it back to back on a Bandit, but would love to do it all day...

[kirmizibeyazim]

it scaring me that traffic comes from right

[renegado3804]

why hide the speedometer ?

[andrew761219]

nice vedio !!!!!

[kola1234554321]

beautifull ride and moto

small windshield could be good...

[letvm]

the end is hypnotic

[pterrific]

lol lololollol iron 883 usay lol bigboneu are

[trialsmaster]

Such a good road, first section climb from Glossop is awesome

[mrpatton01]

looks fun ut fairly dangerous..,

knowing that evry biker does a litlle slide once in a while.. im very happy with my IRON 883 cruising along.

id like to ride the next day aswell.

[chrisrig74]

awesome video, been along there on my vfr, havent quite got the experience or bottle to ride like that, keep it up

[fragil172]

Perrroooo doonnnde vas con la cortacesped.. ! Yo tengo una variant y corro mas que tu pedazo de gay con la mierda de carretera de violadores ......chupame la polla ingles de mierda

[laceandwhisky]

nice ride superb bike i have one excellent handlin never never go back to any other bike this is the B King and it is called the king for a reason...love the tape on the speedo but watch it distance and time can be mathmatically put into speed that can hold up in court.... been told this by an ex traffic officer...

[thejohnfitton]

I did the same run on an advanced bike course years ago...nice ride, you have good style and I bet you got the same buzz too.Nice one. :) made me smile....

[vaagen58]

nice roads

[theceilingbouncesonx]

at first i thought the same thing to i seen im go thru the corner in the left lane and was like NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

[steylerarmy]

Very nice ride ;) and nice place to drive

[fiftygram]

Guess it's in England, and they do drive on the left side there.

[bajabilly2004]

hayabusa motor :)

[OldWriter205]

No one, but no one on here has mentioned fuel mileage. Surprise surprise. I am getting almost 50 MPG! That is US gallons, not Imperial, which is a little larger. The secret to good mileage with a bike? SHIFT UP. There is no need to be constantly riding around in a lower gear than you need. Motorcycle Consumer News when they tested this bike got much less than I do, but they said they spent most of their time in third gear so used lots of gas. Yes, I do wind it up, when needed.

[NtheNow]

I would kill myself driving on this pass with the traffice reversed. As an American it would be hard to get use to riding on the opposite side of the road. I would be cruising along and forget which lane is the proper lane and become "Bug Juice" on someones windshield, LOL!

[Fitzsi]

Im from the uk and i would feel the same on the other side of the road lol.

[itsmister2u]

@NtheNow same here. but i would i'd like to drive a car with steering wheel on the passanger side just once to see how it feels. Weird!

[bigups43]

@NtheNow You get used to it really quickly haha. Or.... you dont :P

[NtheNow]

@bigups43 I feel ya, LOL!

[Jaiv74]

@NtheNow I'm Spanish, but I live in London. I can easily drive cars in both countries, but I had to leave my bike because I almost got kill twice... You’re completely right in your comment

[JooHaxDemoTaken]

@NtheNow That is EXACTLY what happens when some european riders go over to the isle of man to see the TT..They go out for a run around the island on their bikes and get into a close shave situation, temporarily forget the side of the road they should be on and pull into the wrong side of the road..splat !

[LupulMoralist]

@NtheNow bug juice hahahahahahahahahahahaha that just made my day!

[OldWriter205]

Yes, the bike is fast, very. But I want to comment on the DRIVEABILITY. The engine and throttle response are perfect. No hiccups, no bucking, no lag. I mean smooth as in the best automobile. Also, the handling at low speeds is really great. The top layer of blacktop had been removed. I turned a corner. There was a manhole sticking way up. Oh oh! I had a choice, go outside into opposing traffic, or quickly turn inside. I chose inside and it was so easy. I;m short, I'm old, but I feel safe.

[OldWriter205]

Followup of my recent (31 July 09) purchase of the B-King. I now have over 2,000 miles on it. About half and half city and country riding. Too much traffic most of the time, but I did find a stretch of road where no cops could hide and CRANKED IT ON in third, went to redline, shifted to fourth. All I can say is, it was all I could do to HANG ON. The acceleration is FEROCIOUS. I went up to about 128 and had to back off because in the distance a car was coming towards me at that point. More....

[ELuna3693]

i wish someone be like holy shit he is in the wrong lane he is forcing cars outta the way or something i would lol at them

[6SNAK39]

um........... well i guess i'm not going to post my original comment.....

[dudman66]

stop hatin this was a good vid of a smart rider

[TheReapersSon]

This is a very unique-looking motorcycle! But wow, does it have a lot of power!

[PoxUserName]

why cover your spedo with gaffer tape?

would the video be crap if everybody else knew that he only got into 3rd gear and was just reving the snot out of 1st or 2nd half the time?

[GH0STR1D3R199]

or because the police in England are using these videos on youtube and convicting the riders, taking their licenses and even throwing some in jail... they ruin all the fun blame them :P

[saomaino]

wow, what has England become? police convicting people with youtube video? that's so fucking fascism. I hope the U.S doesn't get to that point, although all the leftist socialist fascist shit going on here worries me. Give us back our freedom and fuck the big brother watching us over our shoulder.

[peburcanudas]

hua hua hua hua 4:33 wind power!!!!!!!!

[gotallboy]

nice valley.. and road!

[GH0STR1D3R199]

in england mate, the side the road should be :P

[eoghanhennessy15]

In the past, almost everybody travelled on the left side of the road because that was the most sensible option for feudal, violent societies. Since most people are right-handed, swordsmen preferred to keep to the left in order to have their right arm nearer to an opponent and their scabbard further from him. Moreover, it reduced the chance of the scabbard (worn on the left) hitting other people.

[saomaino]

is it true man? 'cause the explanation makes sense. If it is, i learnt something new on youtube today.

[eoghanhennessy15]

yes thats true! yeah drive on left to stab with right handed sword! remember countries like america are modern built countries so they wouldn't have come across this!

[Drumbassboy]

its in england or japan or werever it is you twat..

[Svittidiu]

You're driving on the wrong side >:(

[eoghanhennessy15]

no you are!

[ktmboy1989]

those stock pipes are funky lookin

[OldWriter205]

Yay! I finally purchased my NEW B-King tonight. Rode it for the first time. What a sweet ride. My son just came home from Ft. Jackson at the same time, so I let him take it for a short ride. He owns a '05 Bandit. Tomorrow we plan to take 3 bikes out, the B-King, The Bandit, and my 99 Honda 800 VFR. These, all three, are sweet rides. We will rotate, take turns, and ultimately decide what we like best. Date is31 July '09.

[connorclarkeconnorcl]

My dad told me a story about this road. It used to be his favourite road to drive down in his truck when he was driving from London to Manchester Via Leeds

[abendroth85]

oh god, how i want...

[ZildjianGuy90]

that looks like an amazing road for a bike. Thanks for the vid.

[impostor1981]

I WANT THIS BIKE!!!!!!

[0114owl1867]

i do this trip a few times a week in my car, its 15 miles from glossop to the city limits of sheffield it usually takes me between 20 and 30 mins

[dogo650]

Nice !!

[60thstrat]

What's with the black tape on the right? Hiding the speed maybe? If so, why?

[TrevorP1969]

black tape over the spedo is normal in the UK its govened as court evidence hence we tape over it if you wanna speed and record it

[billpichette]

don't let off the juice!!!!!!!

[roycehellion]

wow, hate to hit a slow moving vehicle around some of those blind curve :S

[kulas10101]

if busa it will easily pass you

[ftpaddict]

And a Ferrari is faster than a Mustang. Go figure!

[JayzBeerz]

shut up dick

[ChasnOOb]

you're a very impressive, controlled rider. I loved watching this vid!!

[viggengo]

Love my Bking. It does it all

[klined]

inspiring video. im almost about to pull the trigger on an 08 b king.

i ride an 00 busa now. I wonder how much i'll like the B

[zbuga]

just get rid of the stock exausts put some yoshis and believe me you wil soon forget al about your busa same power lots more fun

[iVanHalen666]

Be careful with her =)

[iVanHalen666]

Is it my imagination or the guy who rides never shifts up in the whole video? xDDDD Which gear he's going on? 2nd? I'd say so.

omg, what a powerful bike, dude.

[PabloSVK01]

Well, acctually there are few shifts.....still very interesting for a 10 minute ride! Seems like the red line in 2nd gear is just enough on a public road... *thubs up*"

[iVanHalen666]

Seriously, what the hell this motorbike has been designed for? )))For killing yourself?)) I live in the Canary Islands. Here, you just wouldn't put the 4th gear with that bike in your whole life. Too much bike for our roads. A waste of money buying it here. )))))

[DeScRuN]

Es que es una moto de 15000€ y 200 CV xD.

[DeScRuN]

200 HP

[alsa1980]

was up there today in heavy rain / thunderstorms. on my 2009 1250 bandit. i don't ride anywhere near as fast as you but had a great time. did the pass 4 times in all. funnily enough the road wasn't as slippery as i had been told. in fact the only time it got hairy was in sheffield :/ torrential rain and flash floods meant a lot of time slipping on bitumen and hidden manhole covers. great vid!

[jet79637]

I could watch that tach all night, looks great.

[gasnapiro]

hell yeah!!!!! listen to that beast roar!!!!

[lbennyn]

Lovely road, lovely bike, lovely music, lovely video!

[gisyxafd]

hello my freind please if you can let me know what is your opinen about this bike becouse i am planing to by this one very soon but i looking for your advise

[East1999ManNigNog]

how fast have u had out of it?

[ark50ak]

loved every minute.......cheers !

[trayvontravisdorian2]

mattian874 he gave it more than a lil twist. the 09 busa al u got to do is tap it.

[nitropsp]

it should be the same as the busa as its the same engine

[mattian874]

wow. that bike has so much power. a little twist of the wrist and you can overtake cars with ease.  He was overtaking those cars like they were standing still.

[banjeaa]

i want that bike!! but i cant affort it :S

[roxthefury]

bella bestia!!!!

[pxp56phone]

this guy been riding for the hall day

[theeroom]

i like woodhead better

[sparklysparks77]

3:00 YF54PXW seems pretty scared... XD

[seanexup1000]

I loved the ACDC Back in Black intro... And at least you tackled the road unlike alot of wanna be's FAREPLAY 2U

[donsak11]

suzuki super fast ferries...nice ride

[bambam4LSU]

your roads are narrow BUT in very good condition,, compared here in the states wide and crappy.. pot holes.. nice vid.

[ConfusedSponge]

monster or bking? which is better?

[BlooDish14]

bking monster is ugly shit :p

[Nomoredie]

u compare 181 hp vs 81 hp ? o.o

[bigcreator]

Good riding overall, but overtaking on solid whites is impatient and stupid.

[carl2017]

Those pipes don't MAKE the bike. They are without doubt the most ugly pipes to appear on any bike I've seen in the last 25 years. But it sure as hell is a nice bike. I've got a Gixxer 7/11 at the mo and it's a toss up between the B-King and the Speed Tripple for my next bike.

[OldWriter205]

Well, Suzuki designed them and placed them on the bike, and I am going with Suzuki. Drill them out inside...(heard a set) and they sound good. Leave the looks. Have you seen the new Transformers movie? B-Kings in it, with those pipes.

[CrazyNuts980]

Are you guys in UK?

[ridedirtba]

Nice Vid.

[Xerxes371]

damn i thought thoose bikes were old grandpa bikes. Theyre hella fast (:0

[rabehimself]

They oughta be with hayabusa engine :)
