Suzuki Boulevard C50 Bobber Build FINAL DAY

[@Turbulenz100]

It was a real pleasure being a virtual guest in your garage. Thanks for sharing your project with us!

[@MichaelSmith-mm3fd]

I watched most of your series on your C50 build, and got inspired to reignite my motorcycle life. Haven't been on a bike in 5 years, but picked up a super sweet (with ALL the extras) 2005 C50, yesterday. Thanks.

[@motorcyclezeal4813]

Hey Bryan, I just finished the series, had me entertained all week. I just got the same year c50 last Friday and it was great to watch you show in detail how things come off, how things go on , maintenance etc. mine has a nice sounding cobra exhaust and air filter with the power commander 3 hooked up and a sporty handlebar like yours and a good looking tank bra. I just passed the msf class a couple weeks back and this is my first bike. It's got just over 19000 miles and will see many more now. Thanks again, your effort is appreciated and I hope your wife got the job or at least all that crap out of your garage so you can do another project!

[@claytonhughes5975]

It looks great Bryan! Excellent job on the video series also. I'm not a bike owner but watching your TWO videos puts me in the mind to find one. Thanks so much for taking us along for the ride.

[@evelynsouzaferreira4593]

Thanks for sharing this project. If you had told me a month ago I would be watching a rebuild of a motorbike I would have called you nuts, but really looked forward to the uploads. Great project and you have done an outstanding job. Much appreciated

[@tomfjr3872]

Congrats on your new toy. Well done. Thanks for sharing your experience/expertise with us. Ride safe.

[@Docdaugh]

It LOOKS AWESOME! Good job! Love the color and the whitewalls.

[@punisher6001]

Hey Brian, what a surprise? I am a fan of your (cigar obsession) and your cigars reviews. Recently - 4 months ago - I bought a Boulevard C-50, the same color of yours. So, I go often to youtube to "learn" things etc etc... and it was a surprise learn that my cigar guru has a Suzuki. By the way, good job!

[@Muddr1nker]

watching this has made me decide to do a Boulevard C50 Bobber build myself

[@willyb933]

She's a beauty! Great color and the whitewalls really set it off. Thanks for sharing your project!

[@Snyper600]

Awesome job, well done!! I have a 2008 C50 and have done some work on it. But it doesn't compare what you have done with this bike. I watched the whole series whenever I had a chance. You done an excellent job explaining and showing the steps taken. I am kind of sad that it is finished. I guess now I will check out your site. Once again awesome job, the bike looks sick!!

[@SirKingHoff]

I just got a steal of a deal for a C50 in the spring as a present to myself for my birthday, 1.5k miles for $4,000. Absolutely love it.

[@naterobertson3366]

This is an excellent video brother! You did a phenomenal job she is gorgeous! I am doing the same thing my bike . My 2004 will hopefully look a lot like your bike when I'm finished God willing. Again thank you so much for sharing this friend! Maybe someday we'll ride together brother God bless you

[@blackhawk2475]

Excellent finished product Bryan... It was all worth every minute and I enjoyed watching the project from start to finish.

[@nickheinz3737]

I watched this 5 years later and the final result was very nice.

[@HilBilySasquatch]

Wow!!!! Bryan it turned out GREAT!!!! nice job... you had some headaches but you pulled through.. love the color.. good choice. makes me want to do a bobber project. thanks again for the great series of videos on your bobber..

[@leadcrayon]

Hard to believe it's the same bike you started with. Fantastic project, Bryan. Thanks for sharing.

[@chillbro2275]

been watching your vids for a while bikes i've considered, and this one felt like i got to meet you finally. And i liked the experience. Very intelligent and organized!

[@dalhoctex4041]

I've gotta learn to ride and get one. Your hard work paid off...nice custom bike!

[@leeyork5473]

Your bobber,looks amazing! Good job,bravo!

[@jayjack2768]

Hold on!!! You're on of my favorite cigar guys!

[@steffanan]

Congratulations! Watching this build was an absolute blast, such a perfect second bike to have.

[@npr1300A8]

She looks absolutely beautiful! I'm a big fan of red especially a red like that. I can relate to doing things when tired and making mistakes and not having the sense to walk away from it. Looking forward to seeing the new videos with that lovely exhaust note. Well done.

[@normanbuffett4642]

this bike is so cool, I love these bobber kit projects. I have a 2003 Volusia 800 with 39000 on it and have been thinking about it for a while. I don't have your patience though. I'd be throwing shit all over the garage. You did a great job it is awesome

[@victormezquita2723]

Hello , Incredible sound and beautiful suzuki, for me it's an excellent machine and the background music is fantastic , I Am the owner of aF SUZUKI VL 800 2001 AND i LOVE IT, congratulations for your bike, nice really very nice job

[@LasVegasGuitarStudio]

Bike looks great and the video series was excellent. As good as any 'car guy' channel I've seen.

[@Luistip]

...good job ...an example of learning by doing, successful ...congratulations!...

[@josejaramillo909]

Excellent I am planning buy this model next week and I will reopen all 24 videos.

[@EdwardBrowne]

love what you've done. I'm looking to start riding. I'm not sure I could do all of want you did with this build but it looks great.

[@pjcliffo]

Really enjoyed your project, you were really fast yet careful. I nearly had a heart attack when you said superglue! Let us know how you finish up with the emblems. I would have angled a piece of timber from the floor to the emblem to hold it tin place and some heat will probably help. Do a video of what it's like to ride, a road test. Cheers and now get some sleep.

[@RidingFromDawn2Dusk]

Bravo nice job.. well done. I agree with Bob Oliver below use the heat gun and get them really warm while over something with the same profile, heat them till they sag to the same shape and let them cool under gravity then they will stay that shape.

[@Impractic4lmn]

That whole series was very awesome. Good job.

[@dfraserml11]

I also bought these emblems but I heated them gently enough to enable me to bend then where required , let them cool in the said position and fitted them to the bike without any problem.

[@PedroDVC]

What a lovely bike man!

[@hammood613]

congrats on finishing your bobber

[@LuckyTaze]

Beautiful bike love it and this series, its shown me a lot love to see another one in the future!

[@Scott_AI5EF]

Well done my friend. Well Done! ~Hilman

[@catalasfamily6549]

Beautiful bike ... where did you get the rear and front fender? Love the white walls where can I get them

[@mikecollard6150]

The bike looks awesome. Good job.

[@Coolbreeze72]

Super impressive! I'd like to do one of those.

[@TwoWheelObsession]

It's a lot of work but worth it!

[@Coolbreeze72]

@TwoWheelObsession oooh I bet! I kinda wanna trade in my DR650 for one.

[@eagles107]

Wow, fantastic job,you've done there...Bravo again...You know what ! Your name plate there (Boulevard) take them of the tank and then first put them agains the tank and with that air blower, try to give them the same shape your tank have,it's plastic you will be able to replicate the shape you need and you wont have any problem to glue them on the tank,no drilling no cut...Just a little heat to bend them and it will fit like a glove...Have fun and thanks again i really enjoy watching you...Ta Da...BaDa Bing BaDa Boom....LoL. Claude

[@princeoffame100]

very nice do you have the link for the front and rear fenders and the seat base

[@abdulazizal-ibrahim5859]

Finally just finished the project videos , and it’s perfectly done congrats and great job I think i’ll do it too but needs to change the exhaust.

[@Markchance08]

Dang, I watched all of your videos about this bike and you nailed it, probably the best looking bobber I’ve ever seen, is there a way you can link everything you use to bob it? Like the seat fenders etc. I’m gonna get different light kits to save some money, BCB light are too expensive for me, anyway good job on this one.

[@SuthernCalMotovlogs]

I HAVE to do one now!! This winter hopefully.

[@myaki7]

tried looking for the used bike checklist you mentioned... but i couldn't find it. which video is it?

[@jamesbrady6824]

Have you tried using a heat gun on the emblem? It might relieve some of the stress in the plastic allowing you to mold it to the shape of the tank. Just a thought! Love the vids!

[@JEP1976]

Can you use a strong magnet to hold the badges on until the tape holds it?

[@jongeddes09]

Wow! Absolutely beautiful bike!

[@RSti-sn8ro]

What bars and risers? Looks amazing

[@phillipvazquez284]

Ryan love your knowledge on bikes you videos always help me so much I have a 2015 Suzuki boulevard c50 may I ask would you be able to guide me to see how could I install a second running light I have posi taps and posi locks I think I have a idea but I don't want to mess anything up. Please help me with that ..

[@216gamer]

how much was the white wall tires?

[@billnye198]

Absolutely gorgeous. Great music selection as well. Have you noticed any issues with the smaller fairings letting the tires kick up water or dirt onto you?

[@TwoWheelObsession]

The guy that bought it does lol.

[@dedelabinouze5110]

Very nice job. Kudos to you !

[@ronwyatt8635]

Well done mate. Looks great and I love the color. Good choice of color for the seat also. Not sure if the exhaust mod on your exhaust has been done but if not it does give you a deeper note compared to the original exhaust and is quite an easy mod to do. Look forward to a vid of you cruising around on it. Cheers.

[@TwoWheelObsession]

Ron Wyatt Yep already gutted :)

[@MIKESGARAGE813]

I live in Tampa. What's the locksmith that did the rekeying.

[@luisgil1381]

Did you have to cut anything to install the bobber? Also do you have the link to the license plate attachment?

[@2001himax]

Wonder what the guy you bought it from would think of it now. Fantastic job. Norman

[@eathernlawsonmusic9280]

where did u buy all the bobber fenders and springer seat ?

[@armandofelix98]

Where did you get that license plate holder

[@anthonythomason4935]

Love the bike,only thing I would have done different is put on shorter pipes and pegs. But again that's all personal preference,truly looks great man.

[@gastondeveaux3783]

Absolutely gorgeous bike. Looks like you kept the stock exhaust. I'm looking to buy a bike to convert to a bobber, but I don't like super loud straight pipes. Amazing job. I recognize you from tour cigar videos too, right?

[@bobby.digital3]

This bike is awesome I have the same bike looking to do the same. Where did you get all the bobber build from

[@tejusvyas]

Great job buddy...Keep it up !!!

[@mawsonjamali8708]

where did u get the bobber kit from? thanks

[@mushroomcloud1]

Looks awesome!!!

[@9999plato]

The struts are on the inside on the front but on the outside on the rear, Is that because they dont fit well on the rear or an aesthetic thing?

[@zardportugal]

Very nice videos, great work. Congrats.

[@jackjetpilot]

That is beautiful!

[@TwoWheelObsession]

+jackjetpilot Thanks!

[@duffa01]

good looking bike,was with you all the way,you going to sell it?

[@danbattaglia6085]

I like the bike! Was wondering ware you got the rear fender?

[@ronaldreynolds9870]

Thanks 4 video i like ur bike I have a 2021 suzuki boulevard vl800 c50 it's Kool too I have no mods to it..

[@MIKESGARAGE813]

And who did that paint?

[@jvazquezpr1]

Beautiful bike

[@Fumingzeus]

Could you not heat it with a heat gun and then bend it to fit the tank?

[@edwinmendez3836]

Great job !!!!!

[@giloquendo]

Awesome build I have a 2005 and I want to do that let me know how much will you charge me to do it

[@gar3938]

Hello there from Alabama and i have the same bike and like it alot what you did and i am curious what was the total cost of the build ? Thinking of doing something to mine and really like your idea .

[@phillipvazquez284]

One more question for the life of me I CANNOT find chrome brake and slush levers for my boulevard c50 I have a 2015 and I try several and they don't fit like it should I had to send them back from merchants. Because they didn't fit correctly for a 2015 c50 boulevard

[@ernestomarquez7023]

What brand are those white walls I've been trying to do that to my 2009 Suzuki m50

[@Mrinspiredby]

Absolutely beautiful job! You have inspired me to do one. I'll wait till winter first. Oh how may times did you stub your toe since you were bear footed practically the whole time while you were doing this project? LOL!

[@TwoWheelObsession]

Darin Marshall Same number of times the bike came plummeting down because I didn't use straps! lol ZERO ;)

[@Dfsblue55]

Bike turned out cool af! As far as the emblem is concerned, did you try a heat gun on it while it was off the bike and the shaped it to the bike while it was malleable before you tried to attach it?

[@Bass.Player]

I had a M109 for awhile. I clean all my new tires with brake clean to get all the release agent off...

[@Trukerinfulleffect]

Congrats on the build Bryan ,bike looks awesome ,and done in such a short time,the only thing I would Change would be the pipes,but that's justi,congrats again

[@jessemcguire4654]

Where do you get front fender

[@TwoWheelObsession]

bluecollarbobbers

[@bassintexas6706]

WHAT!!! I AM A SUBSCRIBER TO CIGAR OBSESSION... How did I find you here so random and so cool Ha! Hello!

[@deniker1]

Try your heat gun on the badges just to re-shape them. I do it off the tank and the mount them

[@vanamee692]

Or place badges in boiling water; It might allow the badges to be reshaped to the desired curvature.

[@gugughama]

looks great !!!

[@Downfishy1]

Did you use the FJR paint code? wanting to paint my Shadow the same Metallic Red.

[@9999plato]

A hair dryer might have softened the plastic emblem for shaping.

[@rickroyer1162]

Nice bike!

[@FernandoDIY]

im bit late but the badges have LH and RH, if you put them the wrong way they will lift. anyway good job on your build

[@justinpesterfield4410]

Looking at buying a black Stock 05' Suzuki Boulevard C50. How much to bob it out like this? I would leave it black. Thanks Justin

[@TwoWheelObsession]

Depends on what you want to do exactly. A few hundred to a few thousand. It's up to you.

[@mike718nyc]

how much was total cost?

[@1_andonly_1]

Beautiful bike. You inspired me to buy a c50 and convert it into a bobber. In your parts list. What size and brand white wall tires did you buy. Also what is the size of the seat 11" or 13?

[@AConcernedCitizen420]

Use a heat gun on plastic to shape. Apply while hot and it should cool in place. Just don't scorch the chrome! lol This bike makes a nice bobber!

[@MesserAaron13]

still need a better exhaust, i would use a different tank, and try to get a manifold made so you can toss the airbox and use pod filters but all-in-all its not too bad. Also i would just take the badges off and leave them off.

[@bobtracey7689]

Your intro music is the same as the intro music used for corporate training for the company I work for. I just placed it. It is disconcerting, but I still really enjoy your videos. Thanks for the welcome distraction.

[@joepesci4250]

Beautiful Bike...

[@BAHRAMCR]

The best part of this is shaft drive, no more chain cleaning and lubing.
