2008 Suzuki Boulevard M50 review from Canada
"Excellent bike, easy to ride, the fun doesn't wear off"
What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?
No problems at all... better not be, it is only 2 weeks old!
General comments?
Having always had Kawasaki or Honda bikes, Suzuki was new to me. The second I saw the M50, I fell in love with it. Loved the look, all black, kinda big and mean looking.
Then I researched it online, and have never seen so much good stuff said about a bike. Everyone that has one, seems to love it.
Armed with the initial admiration and lots of reasons to back it up, I purchased one a couple weeks ago. I love it.
At 6' tall and 245lbs, I wasn't so sure it would like hauling me around. To my delight, it hardly feels like there is anything on it. Even when I take my wife, it has lots of power to do what I want it to do. It handles really well, and has all the rumble I need to make me feel good. My other bikes were always sport cruisers, and were pretty quick, with all kinds of top end. I don't miss that at all. The M50 is fun to drive.
My only beef is the seat... I tend to sit back a bit, and it does press into the tailbone. Not a big deal, I will replace that when it becomes an issue.
I can't wait to put a million miles on it!
