Best Beginner Motorcycle: Suzuki S40 Boulevard: 650 cc Cruiser Enough Power?
bicycles reviews | bicycles videos | bicycles online
Is a 650cc cruiser enough power for a beginner bike, is it too much power, or will you grow out of it? This is my first motorcycle, and I'll tell you what I think about that common question for starter bikes after riding on my Suzuki S40 Boulevard/ LS 650 Savage for 8 months.

I wanted to respond to your motovlogs, I came across one of your videos by chance just the other day, I usually watch Cyclecruza, I don't know if you've heard of him, but he's over the top most of the time, he swears and gets angry a lot, but I think his heart is in the right place You are very informative and entertaining and also funny You seem to care about what you do and I appreciate that Just a few minutes ago I saw one of your videos where you got really upset at someone who you said was very disrespectful and perverted I don't blame you for being upset, guys like that make us other guys look really bad, so we get a bad rep just like some girls who do wrong, are gold diggers, high maintenance, etc...doesn't mean all girls and women are like that Well my point is I don't know why both men and women whatever their age and race seem to always bring sex into the picture I believe there's a place and time for everything and if someone's is watching a video on motorcyles, painting, gardening, whatever it may be, they should stick with that topic and not bring sex, violence or any other negative topic into the picture Before I go off too deep, let me just add that I think you're doing a great job, I am also a biker, I have a Suzuki Boulevard M109R, but am thinking about getting a 2nd bike, possibly the Suzuki S40, the BMW R9T racer or the Indian Scout, or possibly another one, I feel bad that this person did what he did, well I have to get going, my email if you want to respond is
inthe2ilight@yahoo.com I thought about this title because I feel that life can feel like The Twilight Zone sometimes, my alias is Cool, bye for now, I usually don't send any comments but your situation upset me and I wanted to let you know I'm on your side and I'll always be respectful to everyone I know, I'm not perfect but I try to learn and improve from past mistakes so I can be a better human being, for now motorcycles are a great substitute to relationships -
Enjoy the ride , the cost maintenance , etc etc ..... cruizzzzee..... the scenery .... the hum....enjoy your styling'......... what's with the .sec per 100 anyway ......

I can't find much anyone else who lives in my area who also rides an s40! I haven't had any issue with my s40 and I've taken her over 4000 miles traveling up and down the west coast. I love my s40! I have gotten looks from people when I went to Dream Roll and Babes Ride Out, when they find out I rode a single cylinder bike to the events.

Love your vids. Check out my S40 / Ryca CS-1 at my channel.

This is an awesome bike. I have a 2011 gsxr 1000 and I also have a 2016 s40. I love riding it because of gas mileage and its super light. I got it because it was cheap at 5000 dllrs. It gives my 1000 a rest since im holding to trade it but Im keeping the s40. May pass it on to my gf later. She likes it.

Honda Shadow 750. It's V-twin but low compression and low advance so it is very forgiving.

Just discovered your videos. You're doing awesome.

I used to work at a dealership and rode them all. The 650 Savage thumper is a good bike. Easy to maintain, cheap to insure,good on gas, plenty of torque, easy to ride an excellent in town bike. It does vibrate a bit on the interstate, you can help that by changing sprockets. My wife is gonna get an s40 this winter.

o ya what gas you putting in your bike? I find the 87 octane runs way better that higher octane. if you use higher octane gas makes the bike sluggish feeling

I just picked up my first bike that is an 2015 s40 I have 4 kids and I am 30 the bike is light has enough power to go what more you need. plus they have made this bike sine 1986. the only thing they have changed is the name, belt driven, electronic starter. why mess with something that is great.

Doodle it does not matter if your last on a ride. Sometimes its best to be in the back. If you were more use to riding with a group you would be there without a problem. I have admired that S40 for a while and thats how I got to see your youtube! be safe
