2018 Suzuki Boulevard C50

Chassis Features

• Strong, double-cradle steel frame supports a chassis ready for cruising or a full-on tour.
• New generation styling incorporates visual cues from American cruiser heritage: rich paintwork, glittering chrome and deep front and rear fenders with rounded ends.
• Link-type rear suspension is shaped to mimic the hard-tail lines of a traditional cruiser, connecting a truss-style swing arm and a single shock absorber with 7-way spring preload adjustability providing 4.1 inches of smooth and response suspension travel.
• A kicked-out, 33-degree rake and long 65.2-inch wheelbase provides a smooth, comfortable ride.
• Stout telescopic front forks deliver generous 5.5 inches of smooth wheel travel.
• Wide handlebars, forward-mounted floorboards, and leather-textured seat with a low seat height at 27.6 in. provide a comfortable ride around town and on the highway.
• A wide 15 inch rear tire and matching 16 inch front tire are mounted to bright, spoke-style wheels for a classic cruiser look.
• Hydraulic front disc and drum-type rear brakes provide strong, reliable braking performance.
• The wide, deeply cushioned seat has a low 27.6 inches seat height that’s ideal for comfortable cruising and confident stops.
• Wide passenger seat makes for comfortable two-up rides. It’s stepped location on the rear fender allows passengers to see over the rider’s shoulder.
• The instrument cluster includes a convenient gear-position indicator, a large fuel meter, and a clock that’s always on display.
• Bright multi-reflector headlight. Durable, efficient and compact LED taillight.
• Rear turn signals are mounted at the base of the rear fender to allow room for adding saddlebags.

Engine Features

• Narrow 805cc, fuel injected, liquid-cooled, SOHC, four-valve-per-cylinder, 45-degree V-twin engine is tuned for exceptional low RPM torque.
• Sculpted engine features polished aluminum and chrome covers that complement the visually striking cylinders with symmetrical cooling fins.
• Offset crankpins bring optimally balanced firing intervals and create a signature V-Twin rumble.
• Suzuki Dual Throttle Valve (SDTV) electronic fuel-injection system maintains optimum air velocity in the intake tract for smooth low-to mid-RPM throttle response.
• Auto Fast Idle System (AFIS) automatically sets the throttle valve opening during cold engine starts by monitoring coolant temperature.
• Cutting-edge 3D-mapped digital ignition system using a throttle-position sensor helps boost the hallmark big V-Twin low-down torque.
• Chromed and staggered dual-exhaust system mounted on the right side of the engine are tuned for responsive torque delivery providing a deep, rumbling exhaust note.
• A wide-ratio five-speed transmission features a high fifth gear ratio for relaxed highway cruising.
• Low-maintenance shaft drive is clean-running and has minimal torque reaction as it efficiently transmits power to the wide 15-inch rear tire.

Key Features

• New, deep Glass Sparkle Black or Metallic Oort Gray body work with distinguished graphics magnify the Boulevard’s classic stance.
