2009 Suzuki Boulevard C50 Special Edition Motorcycle reviews

I have been to a few motorcycle rallies and have always received compliments on how the bike looks. My wife and I have ridden almost all over Arkansas on my 2009 Suzuki C50 S.E. I almost bought a smaller bike for my first bike but am so glad I didn't. This bike handles my wife and I with ease. It's fun to ride and gets over 50 miles to the gallon. I agree with other riders of this bike - it needs a sixth gear although it cruises at 70 mph. with no problem. My wife and I have ridden about 300 miles in one day and the bike was very comfortable. Lastly, I might add, it has a very affordable price. Show less

The 2009 C50 SE is a great bike regardless of the rider's size. I'm tall and fit on this bike better than an HD Road King, which has me sitting on top of the tank even with seat modifications. It is only 805cc but keeps up with larger bikes. The gears could be spread out a bit more or a sixth gear would be nice, but the bike still has good power. The benefit of the smaller engine, of course, is the bike is lighter and more maneuverable. It is a great purchase for new or long time riders. My brother-in-law has one of these bikes but an earlier model. He is heavier than I am and his bike moves him just as well. Show less

After my Yamaha 650 Vstar was stolen, I was looking around and really liked the Boulevard but was concerned that it was too heavy. I bought it anyway and need not have been concerned as the extra pounds actually make the bike easier to handle. The transmission is much smoother shifting and the fuel injected engine is also much smoother and more powerful. I am sure glad my Yamaha was stolen. Show less

I am 45 and have ridden as a pasenger for years but have never been the driver until today. I bought the bike with 445 miles on it. The previous owner rode it four times and gave it back to the bank. It is in lovely condition. I have taken a 40-mile trip today...a total beginner. I practiced starting and stopping and doing turns and shifting yesterday. I took the big trip (40 miles) this morning. This bike is so easy to handle, even for someone as short as I am. Show less
