Schweet!
I'd like to suggest your first mod: get the gel seat. It's a LOT more comfortable that the stock one.
And you can get it online at OneidaSuzuki.com.
There's an online forum at VolusiaRiders.com where you can find a lot of folks (myself included) who are more than willing to give help and advice. The C50 was called the Volusia up until this model year.

Well the Volusia was renamed the C50 and the Intruder became the C90, the Marauder I think became the M50 but I'm not certain. But now all of Suzuki's cruisers are under the Boulevard banner.Wizzard wrote:This also replaced the Marauder and the Intruder .

Thanks for all the compliments everyone! Zoo, your dads bike looks great, it has everything on it that I want...someday anyway!
And yes, I will also be getting a different seat for all those long rides I know I'll be taking. I've checked out the Volusia website before, thats the bike I wanted to get originally (so I could get a used bike instead of a new one), but I was only able to find a couple in my area and none of them were enough of a deal to convince me to buy used. No one wants to get rid of them and those that do are asking lots of money for them! Must be a good bike.
No Aquaduct, I didn't get the Triumph...thought long and hard about it, but it was more expensive and couldn't find the deal I got with the C50. Besides, my MSF instructors asked if I wanted to be an instructor down the road and one of the perks of that job is that you can write off the cost of the bike on your taxes (one of my instructors has bought 3 bikes in the last 3 years!), so I can always get the Triumph down the road!
