Great review! So good that I purchased a 2014 C50T. I'm 66 and this is my first bike....love it! Question I noticed your bike has rear floorboards. I'm having a difficult time finding ones that fit, any idea what brand, model they are as they look perfect!

After 2 seasons of saddling the LS650P Savage (and two earlier ones of trying out various Chinese failed attempts at a decent bike), I bought a brand new 2009 EU model (the VL800/C800 - a standard one, not a tourer) in mid-June of that year. I knew upfront I wanted this particular bike, as it looked great, the specs were exactly as desired and the price was acceptable. Long story short, it was an instant perfect fit and allowed me doing comfortable solo trips to Austria, Slovenia & Italy multiple times every summer, each one totalling at some 600+ miles - mountain passes included, like Grossglockner (~8k ft), Nockalmstrasse (~6,5k ft), Soealkpass (~5,8k ft), Villacher Alpenstrasse (~5,7k ft), Turracher HoehePass (~5,9k ft), Vrsic Mountain Pass (~5,3k ft) etc.. All that with just two saddle-bags for my stuff (3,5 gal each). Then around 2015, I started doing these trips with my GF, which made me upgrad the saddle-bags to ~6 gallon ones each and added a rear, sissybar-carrier- attached backpack (~14,5 gal). The bike still did perfectly fine, although the total mileage went down a bit, for some reason 😀 However, that was the moment, when I got to both perfectly realize and fully appreciate the insanely good quality in which this bike was made (and still is) - typically the first and last days we took highways just to get quickly to the destination area a/o point, and even fully loaded, the bike managed to do that without breaking a sweat at some 80-85 mph. I do not really recall being fatigued or exhausted by the end of the day, just pleasantly tired. Yes, possibly it was because of having a habbit to stop for a cigarette and coffe every hour a/o every 50 miles. After 10 seasons of intense riding (and another mediocre one) I had to sell the VL800 in 2020, but getting back to normal and keeping the good memories, I bought myself another one last year (late-April of 2023 - a 2003 model, carburetor-operated) - and the "this is one of the greatest bikes ever" feeling was again there, in an instant. Later the same year (late July) I upgraded to the US Boulevard C90T, so that my GF could ride the VL800. Though she got her license only a year earlier, I made her practice before anything else, but to my surprise and relief, she did so well that we actually went for a two-bikes-holiday (albeit in Slovakia only) already in August the same year. In regards to the bike itself, she said fairly the same as I did - and you do in this video - it's a great bike, handles really well in that pleasant 'nifty' manner, it is light enough for city commuting, but is 'as-if' destined for cruising local roads at some 60 mph - but is also perfectly capable of handling highways at their legal-limit speeds. I think I have nothing to add to that - maybe besides ex-post stating the fact, that in terms of reliability, I have never had any issues, it never let me stranded (first time I had to recharge the OG battery on the K9 was after 10 seasons) and the only thing it required was regular maintenance within user's manual given intervals. BTW instead of a Mustang seat, you may want to try the seat air-pad add-on instead - it's cheaper and does the same job very well. LbnL I'm glad you guys enjoy the bike 🙂 Ride hard & ride safe.

I've had mine since 2011. I've had fun riding it and took it on vacation twice and road trips from Ohio to Virginia. The only issue I've had was a wire bundle comming from the computer had 1 wire rub through shorting out to the frame keeping it from starting. Repaired the issue and so far no other issues. Only gripe I have is it's hard to find any accessories to make it truly yours. I have found a fairing, tour box and medium sized hard bags for it and highway bars and a back rest. Ride safe and have fun😊

thanks for the great video I had tow and the first thing I did was remove the windshield on bough, gave the second one to my sun and the first thing he wanted was put that candy ass windshield back on. I just love the feel of the wind hitting me full force, nothing feels better than doing 100 Km plus in to a 60 km + wind. I mostly ride ADV bikes mid size, but thinking of getting another cruiser and think it might be a C50T all loved scraping the floor boards on the twisty roads. I wore them little pegs that stick down over 3/4 of the way down. That last one I had was white and no chrome badge on the tank, though the bike look so much better with out it, but I see now they are putting it back on all the C50T's

Wonderful review! I recently purchased a semi-lightly (6,600 miles) used 2006 Boulevard S50 for my first road bike and I absolutely enjoy it thus far.

I own a 2011 boulevard c50t. Can't find anything bad to say about it. Rode it from ohio to cape Hatteras north Carolina and various trips here and there. It's almost like a recliner on wheels. Now granted it is my 2nd bike with my first being a suzuki Bergman 400 which is a nice bike for a scooter. Highway riding is good and I have passed semi trucks several times. Basically I love the bike and would hate to part with it.

What is the engine RPM at 60 mph in high gear? I’m hoping to buy a new 2022. I had a Yamaha 1100cc v-star. At 60mph, it was 3700 rpm! Needed a 6th gear badly!

@rendlerendle 10 ай бұрын

It doesn't have a tach but the RPMs don't bother me. It's not screaming at 60.

Hi i just bought a C50T last night and i have a question about starting the bike, is it normal to start a bike by putting in neutral and pulling in the clutch then press the START button? it won't start if i don't pull in the clutch. i never had to do this with my Yamaha 2016 V Star 250cc, i just put in neutral (green light) and press START there it fires right away. Your answer is greatly appreciated!

Oh man...this is EXACTLY my story. 30 years for me, and it was my newly grown daughter. And this is the exact bike I chose too. Mine is also a T, and it's a 2012. And the more you talk, the spookier it gets. I have the Mustang seat too. Hope you went through with buying it...it's awesome.

I took my windshield off of my 08 C50. Not sure if it's factory but it catches a lot if wind and I think I would like better if I could see over it. Also not used to a cruiser and I have to pay attention to speed as far as rubbing the floor boards on curves
