Primary drive ratio is listed as 1.596 (83/52) Final ratio is 2.388 (43/18)on both models.
They would have only limited the motor though the computer etc.
They wouldnt have gone through the trouble of tooling up new gearing etc to slow it down it would be to expensive imo.
Busa's yeah i guess i like them I've owned a few

I also read in a mag the BKing was geared different and tuned diff as well - plus there is a video review on the web somewhere that has a good talk about it too - same tuning/gearing info
Both awesome bikes I must say, really warming to th BKing now I have seen a few with decent exhausts on - dont like the headlight though thats the 2nd thing I wouild change immedialty, thoer than that styling is quite nice
Egos; everyone got one

Just don't buy one if you want a decent tank range
or anything half as good as a Busa for the pillion.
Its funny that they get compaired to a Busa, different markets.
But as a Naked bike they are a Monster..!
