Suzuki C50T

An easy riding bike fitted with a SOHC V-twin, liquid cooled engine, and a cradle-type tubular-steel frame holding onto the 805cc (49 cub inch) mid-sized beauty. The smaller engine is set into a slightly over-sized frame that gives off the impression of something over the 1000cc mark. A design feature well known in the cruiser category. In 2004 Suzuki put all of its cruiser style bikes under the Boulevard umbrella and gave a number of them a well-deseerved makeover. The C50T got a few upgrades in the process as well. The first of its kind in this category was brought to life in 2001 under the model name Volusia, named after the coastal area of Volusia County Florida. In good marketing fashion, Suzuki brought the bike to the masses in Florida at Daytona Bike Week in that same year.

The C50T model is the upgraded touring addition designed for the avid rider who is more likely to take the bike on highway blazon road trips, rather than just tour it around town. Once re-branded under the Boulevard line, it was upgraded to fuel injection from the original antiquated carburetor. Each series was also given its own tweaks to adhere to a certain rider’s style and preferences. This being the C50T, it comes kitted-out with the more leather-wearing biker look and all things studded. Boasting studded saddlebags, a studded seat, studded passenger backrest, classic white wall tires, and to help ease the fatigue of long-haul trips, a tall windscreen. Completely naked it sits just over the 560lb mark and isn’t something you’re going to want to pick up out of the dirt. A beautifully well-designed classic that hits the mark for a mid-range cruiser.

So welcome my very first bike that I bought brand new in 2007 the Suzuki C50T
