Default question concerning engine size

I'm about to ask a question regarding a cruiser, so don't beat me.

I was looking at the Suzuki Boulevard C50 and was wondering about the engine size. Suzuki says it's a "50 cubic inch, four-stroke, liquid cooled, 45 degree V-twin." What does that mean? I understand CC size, but what does cubic inch translate into? Is this roughly 800 CCs?
