Segment: Custom/Cruiser
Production years: 2005, 2006
How about a compact liquid-cooled cruiser which is not too big and not too small, while exuding plenty of retro looks and still packed with heaps of modern technology? Don't bother to look for a name to suit such a bike, Suzuki's got it all covered: it's the 2006 MY Boulevard S50.
The Boulevard S50 retains much of the '70s vibe the old Savage bragged on, but the thumper was replaced by a v-twin engine which brings in the specific rumble. The moderate displacement is matched by the shorty exhaust, while traditional chopper feats, such as the skinny front wheel and fender, narrow frame and sculpted seat are obviously in place.
