|  Hello from this old redneck Bama noobie! Let me introduce myself. I am 49 years old and have been riding since 13. I am old enough now to know better, yet still young enough not to care. I just bought my second Suzuki this year. I normally ride Honda but like the styling of Suzuki better. My 1st was a Marauder but let myself get talked out of it by a neighbor. My current one is a VL800 Volusia that I bought from an old man up the road from me. I really like it compared to the Marauder. My wife does not care for it much. She says the back seat is like a brick. Most of these bikes are like that I guess. If anyone has a solution to the brick seat problem, please pass it on? If anyone has a good source for custom accesories, that would be helpful also. Nice talking to you-Stan.[/b]

| Welcome! Good bike choice, I have been enjoying my new Boulevard C50 ('05 Volusia renamed) for a couple weeks now. My GF says the back seat is comfy, but she just passed MSF last weekend so now she'll be out getting some experience driving the GZ 250.
