Battle of the Kings 2020: Harley-Davidson crowns … a B-King !
The Queretaro (Mexico) dealership has just won the annual Harley-Davidson international competition. The "Apex Predator" preparation is intended to be an ultimate version of the XR1200 … but Site sees it above all as an unintentional homage to Suzuki’s B-King ! Presentation.
Each year, Harley-Davidson invites its dealers around the world to participate in the "Battle of the Kings". The 2020 final pitted 18 dealers from twelve countries all of whom had to contend with the Sportster, with no budget limit.
Crowned "King of the Kings" this year, preparing for the concession Quartararo Queretaro (Mexico) is based on the XR1200. Called "Apex Predator" (a subtle play on words between "superpredateur" and "predateur du point de son"), this machine had the motto: "born to attack without fear, born to live without a rival".
To be or not to B-King
Naturally impressed and proud of the result, the spokespersons of the American manufacturer underline the strengths of this Mexican custom: stubborn air intakes, Breakout Daymaker headlight, Showa big fork, petal discs and radial calipers, 2-1-2 exhaust house, specific rear buckle and saddle, color TFT screen, etc..
Site, which fully appreciates the talent of Oscar Peralta and his men, notes that this one-of-a-kind motorcycle is reminiscent of a Japanese production motorcycle … But yes! Muscular line, patibular front but almost, disproportionate exhaust … "Aye caramba", there is like a family resemblance, no ?
