Hi,
I am new to riding, well I used to ride MZ 25 years ago and now I want to go back to ride as I feel I want to be free again. I went to the dealer and found Suzuki Boulevard C50, I liked it after I compared it with the same class in Yamaha, Honda, and Kawasaki.... am I right I need your advice, I don't want to buy something today and change it next year. I am 5'9" and I wieght 210.
Thanks in advance.

Unfortunately, we have no way of knowing if the C50 is right for you. I can tell you that I love my S50. But, it's not roomy enough for my wife and I for any length of time. So, I'll probably be moving up to a bagger in a couple years. The decision then will be whether to hang onto the S50 or trade it in. I love it for scooting around!

Regardless of the stats on all the bikes you mentioned.....get the one that fits.

+1 If more people would follow this basic advice along with one you can handle with your current skill level.

my dad baught a c50t and i got a m50, he is 5'6" and the c50t fits him perfectly his feet are planted perfectly. you at 5'9" would be comfortable, im 6' and the bike is still comfortable with me on it.. the m50 that i have actually sits lower than the c50t and its still a very comfortable bike, but like the guys said above, find a bike that feels like it was made for you.
