Built around Suzuki's custom - cruiser motorcycle platform, the 2011 Suzuki Boulevard S50 utilizes a 805 cc (49.1 cu in) liquid-cooled v2, four-stroke layout. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 83.0 x 74.4 mm (3.3 x 2.9 inches) with a 10.0:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the Boulevard S50 measures 217 kg (478 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 1,560 mm (61.4 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 12-liter (3.2 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
