Positioned in Suzuki's touring motorcycle lineup, the 2011 Suzuki Boulevard C50T pairs a 805 cc (49.1 cu in) liquid-cooled v2, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 83.0 x 74.4 mm (3.3 x 2.9 inches) with a 9.4:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the Boulevard C50T measures 295 kg (650 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 700 mm (27.6 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,655 mm (65.2 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 15.5-liter (4.1 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
