My name is Azwan...I own a 2010 VMax. The bike is so power but the sound is so screwed up...any recomendation on what type of exhaust system which has some solid sound without any effect on the performance and create long term damage to the engine

The B-King is the KING is much better

Tommy D - 1BAD B KING September 19, 2009 12:35 PM
Had my B KING for 6 months and 2500 miles. When I bought it i wondered why anyone would want to add extras on a bike so powerful. Now after an air box modification, two brothers cans, power commander, dropping a tooth on the front sprocket and adding a meter screen, I ponder...... why ask why? We do it because we can.GREAT BIKE!

MDFD - B-King is the best kept secret! September 11, 2009 04:07 PM
I too was considering a VMax. I bought the B-King. Bang for the buck was undeniable. I owned an '05 Busa and even like the BK more! Love the upright position, love the handling and love the power! VMax? Maybe someday when the $$'s make more sense....

John - V-MAX August 26, 2009 07:02 PM
I am getting ready to buy a VMAX unless someone else can steer me toward another cruiser with as much torque and horsepower. I used to have a V65 Magna 1100. How would the V65 do against the VMAX of today? I would hope the VMAX would blow it away.

B King in black looks tough. Awesome bike.

b-king is the king!!!

I own a B-King and what announcers had to say about it was all true and i just love the bike and at first I wanted the V-Max but could not afford it so I settled but in a good way. I'm not a big twisty type of person but I feel very comfortable in them and on long rides it's nice (my but get chapped after a while) hopefully on next run. Thanks for the comparisons of the bikes you kept it real. I like that. Rich
