OK, you folks talked me into it, I'm gonna buy it. - Motorcycle-Journal Forums

The Kawasaki 900 that I've been waiting for since December has been pushed back another month, again, now the dealer says that they wont be released until sometime in April. I ain't a waitin' no mo' pilgrim.

So I made up my mind, I'm gonna get the Boulevard C-50.

With the w/shield I'm gonna pay $630.00 less than I'd pay for the VN900, I can get a Maintenance Contract and bags with that money. Dark blue with the dark pewter tank trim. So this coming Wednesday I'm riding my 05 VN750 in to the dealer, give the salesman the title and a check for $3365.00 and riding out with a new C-50 and I ain't looking back.

I'm glad to be part of this group now.

Actually, you made the right decision. Congrats Marine!

blackie1491 · 03-06-2006, 09:38 PM

Good choice in a bike.

Bowtie18 · 03-06-2006, 10:05 PM

Good choice! The C50/Volusia's are great bikes! You will be pleased!

Welcome to the club... (hmmm, I wonder if Suzuki is still sending out the little Boulevard paperweights to new buyers?)

Nope, bought mine June 05 still waiting, in vain.

Welcome to our club, you will love the C50, just needs a tweak here and a tweak there (some call it Bling). Just ride it.
I just made a coast to coast and back run (Daytona ) in one day, non stop on both trips. Butt's fine, arms are fine and kept up with the so called "BIG" boys just fine !

Oh Yeah I forgot:

A big HOORAHH

paper weight? What paper weight? now i'm pissed. LOL

jimr · 03-07-2006, 06:55 AM

Paper weight ? I'm still waiting for my $50.00 rebate !! Congrat's Marine !! Mine is that color combo, looks great if I do say so myself.

CONGRATS, Sgt Mike.

I bought my C50 a few months ago and am still in love. It's a beautiful bike and a great ride.

ENJOY and RIDE SAFE!

I have very strong suspicions that you will enjoy the bike, congrats!

The VN900 sounds good, but those bikes that don't yet exist aren't as much fun to ride.

nickmimi · 03-07-2006, 06:26 PM

congrats. You won't regret it.
