Easy to Ride, Easy to Personalize

Bought new in August of '07, zero miles on her. Nearing a year and a half and over 8,000 miles, I am now certain I made the right choice for a first bike.

I've been on a number of 2,3, and 4 hundred mile treks, never a problem. Great mileage, but, I had to make a few alterations to make the bi...ke comfortable for me. Mustang seat, a must for long rides. Kick-back risers (4") for the handlebars, better posture and a more laid back ride. Bags for essentials and a back rest for the wife or daughter and both love the back of the Boully. All simple additions.
I'm 6' tall and 275lbs. The wife's not small either. This Bike has no problem hauling both of us, or, keeping me up with the big boys on the long rides. Handles like a dream. I'll take this opportunity to recommend the MSF course for all, helped me a great deal.
Above the reliability, and at under 600 lbs., great handling, it's a looker. Many compliments. Lots of chrome and beautiful styling, Highly recommended to friends looking for a bike.
Looking at going Cross Country this year. Read Full Review

best mid-size cruiser

If you are out for a cruiser you owe it to yourself to stop and check out the C50s. If you get a chance to ride one do so. To a blind person you put the C50 and a harley Fatboy side to side and start them it would be hard to pick out the Harley. At $10,000 different in price it is a no brainer. The ...C50 runs cooler and handles much better. So why not buy it. But if you still need to buy in to the name it will cost you a extra $10,000.00.
I was about to do just that untill I road both. Granded the harley had more power, but ran super hot. If you want more power set up to the C90, But I found for half city and half highway the C50 does the job. Don't get me wrong the harley is a great looker, but I wanted to ride not look at it.

Great all-around bike

I love this bike. But, I'm not a squid.



The C50 is the newer brother to the Volusia. As such, there is a good selection of 3rd party add-ons. Not 2" thick catalogs like for HD - but still very customizable.



This bike is very nimble - very well mannered. It is easy to control for low-s...peed, tight maneuvers - such as in the parking lots - easy to do u-turns on narrow streets without duck-walking it around.

I'm not a tall guy (5'-7", 32" inseam) but this bike is very comfortable. I added some pull-back risers and a Mustang seat and I'm in heaven.

It's not the fastest bike on the road. But, it still has plenty of power for 2-up riding around town, and single riding on the highway. It can't keep up with the 1500cc+ monsters (acceleration is a crawl above about 70 mph), but it's still more than sufficient for a single non-squid rider. It's fine for inter-state travel on the highways.

For the price, comfort, handling, and customizability, this is a great bike. Read Full Review

2006 Susuki Boulevard C50

I love this bike. The center of gravity is near perfect. Smooth riding bike for its size although I now I wish it was a little faster or had another gear. One day I may move up to the C90. I also wanted to say I cut out the baffels in the stock exhaust. It sounds really great, but with a down side. ...I went from around 43 mph to 36 mph. Turned out to be a big sacrafice. I do tend to get on it harder though, which could be a little of the loss in mileage because it sounds so damn good. Read Full Review
