2008 Suzuki Boulevard C50T
Summary:
One great, fun ride - reasonably priced
Faults:
None.
General Comments:
This is my first bike in 20 years (I'm 61 years old), and also my first cruiser, having spent my youth on sport bikes.
My apprehension with floor boards, a windshield, saddlebags - anathema to the sport bike - evaporated within 5 miles from the dealership. This is without a doubt a fun, comfortable and darn good looking motorcycle.
While I only have 350 miles on it so far (just picked it up last weekend), as I'm writing this at work, I can't wait to go riding tonight, tomorrow, etc.
Plenty of power, great handling, and that distinctive v-twin rumble make for one great ride. In the new red & white paint scheme, it draws a crowd where ever I stop.
In a nutshell - I love this motorcycle!
Would you buy another motorcycle from this manufacturer? Yes

Your situation/age/reactions to the Suzuki are exactly as mine... now 61, it has been about 20 years since..., but I just bought the C90T... and like you not many miles yet, but first impressions are strong and totally positive. Was considering a Super Glide... but this C90T offers so much for the money... tons of quality, engineering, design, foot-boards, a front light-bar, bags, windshield... and it's simply thrilling! I say congrats to you, and to all who are going with the big Suzuki's... myself included!
