Rider Profile

Best For	Suits riders from newer intermediate to experienced who want a manageable, low-revving V-twin cruiser rather than an outright powerful machine.
Purpose	Built for relaxed boulevard cruising and weekend rides where style and low-end torque matter more than outright speed.
Rider Fit	The low 700mm seat height and moderate 269kg weight make it approachable for shorter riders, though the long wheelbase demands deliberate low-speed maneuvering.
Character	A classic mid-size cruiser with laid-back V-twin torque delivery, shaft-drive smoothness, and understated blacked-out styling.
Not Ideal For	Not for riders seeking sharp cornering performance, high-speed touring capability, or any off-road versatility.

2021 Suzuki Boulevard M50 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

Your height

Inseam (optional)

Units

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 700mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2021 Suzuki Boulevard M50, with a cramped knee angle of around 75 degrees and an upright riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
