I liked the B-King when it was a supercharged Concept. I am a a Busa Owner and Fan so its size doesn't intimidate me. It is however mud ugly in my eyes. To make matters worse the Gen 2 busa and B-Kings require significant changes the valve train in order to sustain any worthwhile amount of boost so force feeding them has gotten a good deal more pricey. (so much for the original Boost King title)
There are 2 in dealerships local to me that have birthdays and they are anxious to DEAL on.
If you don't mind the look (one sales guy called "The Transformer Bike") They ride very nicely and have a generally U-Jap meets Cruiser riding position with great brake and good handling for a machine of its size. (Well that was my impression after an hour on one)
