No more bigger Boulevard C models?

[Pogo2]

Just looking at the Suzuki NZ website and I see that the C90 and C109 models aren't there anymore. All M models are there but not the C's.

Anyone know why Suzuki are not carrying them?

[Festo]

Yeah I noticed this as well. No idea why but can only assume they must be cutting their range down. Cheers

[9rider]

Maybe they are selling as many C models

[White trash]

Shame. The "M" series "Power cruisers" are overyly long, heavy, unweildly bloddy things with the exception of the M50.

C series are really quite nice to ride.

That's only because you weigh 60kg. M90 is a lovely ride if you have a bit of balast. In fact one of the best performing metric cruisers. M109 needs some man handling, but that's about the back tyre. And even then it's pretty easy to ride around.

Because they wern't as popular as the 'M' model so Suzuki stopped bringing them in. There are a few 2nd hand ones in various shops round the country and one new one in Colemans (Auckland). Other second hand one they had was just bought by my other half (traded the Busa, sobs!).....and may I say what a luffly bike to ride on

what :blink:, you're not looking for a bigger bike already are you

[AllanB]

I find it interesting the loyality Suzuki has obtained in NZ of late years. A lot of comeback sales. A good product for sure, but in this age pratically all new bikes are very good and we have a lot of choice. Must be good buggers running the shops.

[Rosso]

Yep agree Colemans do have good buggers running the shop .
I have had the pleasure of owning a Triumph Thunderbird 09 , a Harley Softtail 09 , and 2x C50T's , all great bikes , but I've found my best ride in the 2011 Suzuki
M90
1462cc , beautifully balanced, handles like a dream , my wife has just recently taken up pillion riding and I test rode various 109's but they didn't really do it for me. Have made a few minor changes to the M90, pillion footboards, engine bars, sissybar ,bags small screen , and have new Handlebars on order which are going to replace the straight originals.In other words she will be a very cool cruising Tourer when finished.

Nah, was just interested thats all. More than happy with the C50, will keep this one awhile - you still happy with yours?

[skinman]

yep its going well
am looking at putting bags, passenger footboards (to stop the whining noise haha) & lowers on it.
would still like less wind buffeting & noise.

[Big Dave]

Lose the windscreen. Much nicer bikes naked.

[skinman]

yea but 30km commute in mostly 100km zone all weather. sometimes its good to hide behind the screen (like today)

[Smifffy]

Or just adjust it. I get very little (almost no) buffeting.

I got passenger boards too, and an aftermarket pillion seat. Moll seems more than happy with the creature comforts

[Big Dave]

Can't be done at my height. .
Only way I can comfortably ride the Boulevards with screens is in an open face helmet, the buffeting is that bad.

I Hate all windscreens - except really small ones and electric ones. Them I just don't like much.

To each our own I guess eh? I really like my screen, and I guess I'm lucky that it was already adjusted perfectly for me. If I had to adjust it by trial and error myself, it would probably be lying in a corner in the basement by now. :)

That much glass should have a goldfish behind it.

I often receive compliments on my aquaria :)

[Big Dave]

We've scaled new lows.

[awa355]

I prefer my Dragstar without the windshield, much nicer looking. But I also ride on winter nights and the shield does allow me to lift the visor to get a clearer view without the wind blast.

Also stops the wind from driving the moisture into the front of the jacket.

Yea have spent a bit of time playing with angle & height, have currently got it raked back with approx 30mm packers & at about max height.
Just out of curiosity what boards & seat have you put on?

The pillion was set up when I got the bike; rear pegs replaced with 'tour ease' boards, and the seat replaced with something well padded that looks like it is off an aircraft carrier. I replaced the rider's saddle with a suzuki gel seat. I'm not that impressed with the gel seat.
