2007 Suzuki M50

[Denmar873]

Just thought you might like to look at the new 2007 M50 plus the limited M50 on http://www.suzukicycles.com/

I knew they should be up any day now. The limited ghost tribal scheme is nice looking, just not a fan of the silver.

Little disappointed though, was hoping for a few changes since they got the M109 all lines out and were to start redoing all the cruisers as well. Oh well, here's to 08.

I guess the fact that they aren't making the bikes in red anymore is a reason to move up to the 109 at some point....hahaha....that darker red for 2007 is sharp!

New Features
New speedometer now features a fuel gauge

Front brake master cylinder, brake lever, clutch lever and handlebar switches feature an updated new design

That's pretty much the extent of it for the M50 and C50 models. Some different colors though. Nothing new it looks like in regards to he S model lines.

But the limited also has clear signal lenses!

[DLy]

ugh, son of a B....I want that fuel gauge! I wonder if the sending unit is already compatible? I figure it's probably a more "exact" sender.

i want different pipes and new saddle. they said it's a comfortable ride around town or the open highway. my ash says different...... a few mods to the rear fender wouldn't hurt either. i am very dissappointed.

I see the C90 still has that pathetic 3.7 gallon tank. I guess I can wait another year or two to make a switch.

[RicoChet]

nice.. im down with that tachy! woohoo

I'm picking up my Gray M50 (06) on Saturday and am on the fence of swapping for the blue 07' model. I'm torn because I like the gray color more (but not the limited swirls - looks cheezy), but the 07 will have greater value on a trade down the road (if I get the nerve for a 109 at some point). Now that people have posted some of the changes (though small), I kind of like that fuel guage myself. I may call and see if they have one that I can get since the price should be nearly the same.

V-Strom 650 with ABS . Nice!!!

By that time bro.....we'll have a new model.

I can't wait to see what comes out of the dealer expo this year. What they did with the M109 was cool as hell. Can't wait to see what they do to freshen up the other big cruisers in the lineup.

If I remember their action plan correctly, we should have two new cruisers in the hopper for next year.

Well their listing everything already for 07. (unless you meant 0. I would of thought a new model to replace a previous (say a new M50). I just don't see suzuki introducing a totally new type of cruiser.

[Kodatech]

no more m95 either anymore...i know the m109 is wicked, but i was always a fan of the 95

[intimid8er]

I can be so damn naive sometimes.


When they rebadged the line in August 2004, they mentioned the M50, the M105, and a promise of one to two new cruisers a year after that. Of course, that is just my piss poor memory at it's finest there!

[Trapper]

That's still not out of the question, Tim. The 109 never hit the websites until last fall.

[VolCntry]

Actually, since I just bought an M50, I'm not that disappointed that there were only a few changes. Although I wish mine had it, I can live without the fuel guage. I fill up when the light starts blinking anyway, and reset my trip at each fill up. Besides...I like the '06 blue better than the '07 anyway.

[Kodatech]

another thing too, the low fuel light on all of our bikes makes it almost certain that no low-flying planes will crash into us. and if you live on the coast, then we can all rest assured that no ships will sideswipe us either.....as long as we are low on fuel haha.

[Kodatech]

btw, im just messing about the overly bright lights on our m50 dashboards, i have no regrets about the bike and i love it. and if serves as a homing beacon for the mother ship then thats just a bonus for me.

Ehhh.....that's debateable. Since the M105 was on tap (which became the 109), so that was no surprise. What was a surprise was the actual finished details of the bike. Bump in cc's, huge tire, excellent ergos.

I'm still kinda disappointed in the shaft on the 109, it kinda hobbles the aftermarket for wheels for that bike. A hot-rod like that would be the perfect pallette for blingers.

Myself, I'd like to see a 109 with maybe a 200-180 series rear, with a belt drive. I love the ergos of the handlebar on the 109, and the seat, but I still eye that huge rear suspiciously when I think of handling on that bike. Maybe an answer to the Roadliner would be a good compromise.....
