worth it

I had looked at several different models to include the honda sabre and vtx. I had driven the sabre 1100 and once I sat on the boulevard i was sold. standard floor boards, heel toe shifter and the bike just feels like an extension. the great thing is the fuel injection, my friend has a v-star and ...i am always sitting down the road waiting on him to get his warmed up. would recommend it to anyone.

No test ride needed

I have owned a 1997 Yamaha 750 Virago and a 2003 HD 883 Sportster - both pre-owned. Prior to purchasing my first new motorcycle I researched various models and types over a period of several months - while deployed to Iraq. I was shopping for a new V-Star 650, when I was introduced to the Boulevard... C50 Special Edition. The salesman did a great job of explaining the pros and cons of the cruisers and traditional bikes I was interesting in purschasing. The C50 with its 805cc and "special edition" extras was enhanced by the awesome sale price ($2500 off the list price!). I spent an afternoon in the showroom finalizing paperwork and rode home 77 miles that same evening without even having taking it for a spin around the block - I am very pleased with my purchase.

Love It!

I am a new rider, took the MSF course and started riding the next week when I bought this bike. I was nervous, because this bike is bigger than the little 250 I trained on. Man, I am so pleased with this bike. Great power, great feel, shifts good, love the friction zone sensitivity, the balance, the... price and of course the miles per gallon (my ultimate motivation). I would highly recommend this as a first bike for the new riders. However, I believe this would be a good ride for anyone. Read Full Review

Wonderful bike

Just bought a 2009 with 500 Km's on it. Have put 300 Km's on it over the past 2 weekends. Very happy with the overall performance and comfort. While accelerating to over 80 kms per hour I noticed a roughness/vibration in the engine that settled down once i arrived at cruising speed and kept it the...re. I assume that this will diminish as the bike breaks in. Could use a bit more top end at 110 km and over. Otherwise, this is a solid bike that fits my needs perfectly at a great price. Read Full Review
