SUZUKI Boulevard S50 (2008-2009) Specs, Performance & Photos

In 2009, Suzuki launched the Boulevard S50, a motorcycle that started its life with its new name in 2005, and before that, it was formerly called VS 800 from 1992 to 2004. The S50 model was the smaller sibling of the S83 model and introduced a liquid-cooled V-Twin engine as opposed to the air/oil-cooled engine used by the S83.

Slim, narrow, and aggressive, the bike retained much of the S83's zero-compromise character and was great for slicing the city, as it featured just the right amount of nerve and sharp handling.

The 2009 Suzuki Boulevard S50 packed a combination of V-Twin power and radical cruiser style in a lightweight and agile package that offered a comfortable riding position but also benefited from features that enhanced its smooth performance.

Just like every Boulevard cruiser, the S50's heart end soul was in the V-Twin powerplant that provided an impressive amount of torque and crisp acceleration. So, at the base of the S50 model was an 805cc four-stroke V-Twin liquid-cooled engine with a dual-pin crankshaft design that reduced vibrations and offered a more compact engine design and computer-controlled electronic ignition system for optimum performance under all riding conditions.

The S50 model featured a double cradle steel frame that provided a classic slim chopper appearance topped by a sleek seat with a low seating position, a custom flat handlebar, a tool kit holder mounted in the engine department that resembled an air filter, a wire-spoked wheels that featured polished rims.
