2005 Suzuki Boulevard M50 review from South Africa
What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?
No faults.
General comments?
The only thing wrong with this bike is that it is too quiet. I drilled out the baffles, drilled 6 10mm holes in the end plate, and added a Power Commander. It now scares all the wild animals - four and two legged alike - off the road ahead of me.
The only pains I have after a long ride are my sore cheek muscles from grinning like an idiot for so long.
The handling is great for what it is, and scraping the pedals is not what this bike is about.
