    I have owned my C50T for over two years and rode over 20K miles in Arizona, Utah, and Colorado. It is a solid machine with low maintenance, and "friendly" for new riders. No regrets in this purchase.

    Greatest trouble free, beautiful, best fuel consumption, best road presence, best pickup, best road grip, my experience since a year still ride it every day, I have two best cars but I prefer riding my lovely Suzuki, it looks far bigger than being an 805cc, no problems change engine oil gear oil frequently, warm before starting, when shutting off let it run a while then shut engine off you won’t have any problems no problem with drive shaft, no valve adjustment required, just change engine oils early don’t wait for thousand miles to change engine oil, if you want to run this Suzuki for more than 100 or 150 thousand miles, just secret is changing engine oils pretime and gear oils too, you won’t go to any shop for repairs this is my personal experience for years being a motorbike rider.

    The Suzuki C50 Boulevards manufactured 2009 and later have a fuel gauge and gear indicator.

    I have an '06 model (the same bike, just missing the fuel gauge) in a user- upgraded trim (added bags and windshield). It's a great bike. I've owned it now for 3 years and I'm planning on taking my first road trip on it next year. So far, it's be absolutely stellar. No maintenance fusses, no electrical gremlins so far (knock on wood). It's been a dream to own. I get lots of looks and questions about it, since it looks very similar to the HD Road King, but sounds nothing like the HD. If one has the chance to check one of these out, definitely try it.

    Been riding a 2003 Volusia (pre fuel injection C50) since 2011. My first bike in fact. Had a 2011 Nomad for a while and the weight (850 lbs) really put me off. Sold it and kept the Volusia. My only wish for the Vol would be a little more compliant rear suspension. Otherwise, I think it's a perfect bike, especially for a beginner.
    I enjoy your videos, keep them up!

    Had the 04 version, back then it was called the Volusia. 900cc. GREAT bike! I purchased mine for $500 but running like shit. PO put Cobra drag pipes on it and didn't understand that you have to jet bigger to do that. Pulled the carb, rejetted it and it ran perfect. I have owned a LOT of different motorcycles....and the Volusia/C50 Suzuki is probably the best handling bike I have ever ridden, smooth, and great in the curves. Feels solid, even scraping the pegs. Sorry, I sold it.

    Whats the background music? Its really nice. Vstrom 650 owner thinking of getting a mid sized cruiser. Nice vid.

    @TheSlab24 3 місяці тому +2

    Very interesting, seems like a great machine for that size. I've done a Honda Shadow VT750 - the C2 after the redesign, the Spirit model - about 30,000km and I loved the directness of that bike, but these days I like a little more.. of more. If I jumped back in time, the C50T looks the trick and it's beautiful. Great review as always mate, cheers.

    Последние несколько лет путешествую только на BMW F800GSA и всё-таки решил вернуться к круизерам. Купил ещё такой же C50, но 2005 года выпуска. Для мотоцикла, которому почти 20 лет, он выглядит не плохо! Теперь езжу на нем каждый день на работу))) 👍

    I owned many different bikes my first one, a Honda 150 when I was 14 years old in 1962. The C50 was By Far the best one of all for all the reasons mentioned in this video.. Especially the part about the comfort factor.

    Bought a 2005 C50T in January 2020. It is a superior motorcycle. Been riding on again off again since I was 14. Fixing to turn 71 years young and still loving it. Lightweight for it's size. Construction is bulletproof. Plenty of power.

  • @w4twa

    Hey TG, I Do Agree that the Suzuki Boulevard C-50T is an excellent machine! No doubt about it!!!!
    The Color Paint Scheme is Just Beautiful on your Motorcycle. 🏍️
    Over the years, Suzuki Boulevard has been Down sized! The New 2024 they removed the Passenger Back Rest. And they still have the Old Paint Scheme of peal White! The New Suzuki Boulevard C-50T 2025 not only they removed the Passenger back Rest, they Removed the leather Saddle Bags 😢 like Come on Suzuki! That's ridiculous for anybody that's looking for a brand new one. However, It's best to Purchase Pre-owned Suzuki Boulevard C-50T in excellent condition and low miles!!!! If you ask me, I Think that Suzuki is phasing out the Boulevard's Line!

    I’m looking at 07 C50t but keep getting told that is not big boy friendly (5’11 / 280 Pounds). So my search continues for now. Beautiful cruiser though…

      My brother in law was 5’11”, 325lbs. He bought a c50t as is first bike about 10 years ago. He still has it and loves it. Never complained about anything. I’ve rode it, great bike. He rode with me and another guy 1000 miles from Indiana to Florida doing 70-75 mph and bike stayed right with our Goldwings. You should try one.

      I'm short, but heavy at 5'6" and just shy of 300 lbs. My '06 Bully has been great to me. Very comfortable and reliable. Try one out, you might be surprised.
