The Classic Suzuki Metric Cruiser: The Boulevard C50 and C50T

“Classic rumble, modern comfort” – that’s the tagline that goes with the latest Boulevard model from the 2021 Suzuki line-up. For fans of metric cruisers, the Boulevard line is one of the most respected. For years, these Suzuki motorcycles have given riders a comfortable and commanding ride experience, and for 2021, the story continues thanks to updates to both the C50 and C50T models.

Both of these Japanese motorcycles are powered by Suzuki’s narrow, 805cc, fuel-injected, liquid-cooled 45-degree V-twin engine that produces 53 horsepower and 52 lb-ft of torque and tuned for exceptional low rpm torque. That brawny power is transferred to the rear wheel via a reliable five-speed transmission that provides confident gear changes—making the Boulevard C50 an ideal entry-level cruiser option.

The C50T variant is very much the same as the base model C50, though it features a number of touring-focused upgrades, such as a classic tall touring windshield, a studded seat, and studded leather saddlebags.

For both the C50 and C50T the primary upgrades for the new year are in the styling department, with the addition of new graphics and color options.

For 2021, the Boulevard C50 is available in two color options: Candy Daring Red or Solid Iron Gray. The C50T is available exclusively in Suzuki’s Pearl Brilliant White color scheme.

The 2021 Suzuki Boulevard C50 starts from $8,349 USD / $9,599 CAD.
