S50 reviews / chat
Hello all,
I am looking into buying possibly a 07 or 09 Suzuki S50. I would love to hear and see all that people have to offer in the way of reviews, knowledge and experience with this bike? Let the fun begin! Mike |

I used to own a 1996 VS 1400 (S83?) 4 speed model and it was a wonderful bike.
Like Musicman said, the battery and air filters are a bitch to get to, but otherwise it's a bulletproof machine. It's a great step up. http://s1.postimage.org/vicTJ.jpg I did do some minor mods to mine. PM me if you need some source info. :roll: :lol: |

Look at my answer to your other recent post and MY other post under "other bikes", my new ride (2 posts in July 2009). Dr. Bob on the other M-J forum had 2, one with 139,000 miles which would still be going if it wasn't wrecked, and his second with 75,000 + miles.

I must say, I really like how the Honda American Classic Edition (ace) looks!

Then why don't you ask:
"I am looking into buying possibly a 07 or 09 Honda ACE. I would love to hear and see all that people have to offer in the way of reviews, knowledge and experience with this bike?" instead of Suzuki S50? |
Re: S50 reviews / chat
Well, I said I like the way they LOOK, not anything about quality or reliability. I prefer Suzuki in many ways over Honda. Just because I think something LOOKS good, doesn't mean I want it. If I wanted reviews on Honda, I would probably go to a Honda forum and ask there.
I haven't done much research or spent much time looking into Honda so I don't know about their reliability or quality. I have read much on the M50 and S50 though and seen alot about the bullet-proofness of these bikes. The only things I know about Honda is how much trouble I had with my 554's many years ago. I also had alot of trouble with Yamaha. It's Suzuki's turn now even though I have had a couple problems with the GZ. |

Honda has probably the best reliability reputation across the whole industry......but they all make a "dog" now and then. The conclusion you have drawn from your one isolated experience is invalid........like most conclusions arrived at that way. :biggrin: |
