Suzuki VL800 opinions?

[AllanC]

I was about to buy the light blue one from Colemans but they sold it the day before I was going in to buy it! You did look after it well, it was a beautiful bike. I ended up buying another light blue one from MotosportGP in Mt Maunganui (which had a few less k's but no sissy bar) and luckily it's also been well loved and was very tidy. i've since put a sissy bar on (pleased my wife greatly). Love the bike.

hey guys iam looking at a 2007 thats at turners auctions this week and was wondering what the people thought of them that owned them? comfortable for a long ride? they seem like a good bit of bike for the money and ive seen some stuff go really cheap at turners so hoping to get a deal there!

Love the VL800, lovely bike to ride, however if you can get the latest Boulevard version then you get some better power, but it is a wonderful bike, checkout my gallery of my Volusia and you'll see what I lovely bike it is! Wish I still had it!

I've got a 2001 Volusia (VL 800). Has a few foibles, but then, I guess I shouldnt try and ride it like a sports bike Tank slappers are a bit like getting a truck and trailer rig outta control :P

but, comfortable as.. quite a big community and information about them at http://www.volusiariders.com.

The Volusia is quite a big bike really - 237KG dry, and no smaller than a harley sportster or something.. I have standard pipes with the baffles cut out... sounds awesome.. might go to custom chambers for some new pipes one day when I am rich and famous.
