2007 Suzuki Boulevard S50 review from United States of America
"Perfect bike"
What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?
Front brakes squeak a little bit when you start riding.
General comments?
I got a Suzuki S50 few months ago, and after 800 miles I am ready for my first service.
I gained lot of knowledge from the research I did online, so I thought of leaving a message to potential buyers.
The bikes gives me about 55 miles per gallon of regular gas on local roads, and I never experienced any back firing.
Front brakes squeak a little bit sometimes, which I will try to get it fixed in my first service next week.
The gears shift smoothly, and the bike has great acceleration. Weight is perfectly balanced. I am 5'.5" and have no problem reaching the ground. It would be a perfect first bike for anyone.
I did not deal with service dealers yet, so I cannot comment in that area. My first service is scheduled next week and seems to cost me $130 (valve adjustment) + oil + filter + applicable taxes.
In conclusion, I absolutely love this bike for its weight, balance, acceleration, performance and beauty. It's a great bike, and will make any first time buyer enjoy his experience.
