Suzuki Boulevard S40
Verified4 reviews
Great , comfortable ride with plenty of reserve power, but very basic – Bought this bike as probably my last machine (76 yrs old) and it has proved to be an excellent choice. Pro,s It is light enough to handle well, appears to have plenty of reserve power, but as I am running it in I have not given in to temptation and used full throttle yet. Handled well in the awful road conditions (upgrades !) near me. Low seat… Read more
height, controls easy to reach. 3 year warranty. Con,s It has no fuel gauge or trip meter to gauge fuel consumption, have to check tank fuel level and top up to get an idea.
First bike for a 5'3" 55kg female – I got my motorcycle licence on a whim. After surprisingly passing the learners course with zero experience I trawled the internet... I wanted a bike that seat height was low enough that I wasn't tippy-toeing all over the place, it had to obviously not look like a total 'girls' bike but it also wouldn't break the bank.

in the tu250x, until my brother-in-law suggested the Boulevard s40. It was love at first sight.
My first solo ride to work was exhilarating, the butterflies in the stomach acceleration, the smooth gear changes, the comfort from the seat. The list goes on.
As a first time female rider, I am absolutely stoked with this bike. I always said I would NEVER ride or own a crotch rocket.

the freeways and not enough weight to feel comfortable. Watch out for that reserve valve switch. It was annoying fueling up a lot but then again a small bike. I got stranded and CHP had to escort me off the freeway. Thanks to a rider on a huge V-twin that ferried me to the other side. I regret that I didn't have the money to keep it. After 7 months, I moved up to the C90. No problem twisting the throttle and hitting 80 with no problem.
Cruiser – Purchase my bike back in may 2017. After getting used to cruiser style I found this bike handles well has plenty of power for my 90kgs and is very economical. Comfort is ok but shockies don’t have much travel so rough road, rough ride.
