I bought my 2006 C50C in October 2006 at the age of 62. First bike, ranted, nothing to compare it to, but I absolutely love it. First drive was a little scary. Drove around the dealer´s parking lot 5 or 6 times to get the feel of it. Stalled it 3 times because I wasn´t used to the heel-toe shifter. I´d put my boot on the floorboard and accidentally upshift.
My wife and I took a 540 mile trip last month and the bike performed flawlessly. Only problem is the position of the passenger pegs -- caused some leg cramping for my wife. The dealer is working with me to try to fix the problem.
I put bags, sissy bar, luggage rack, and windshield on it -- all Suzuki stuff and a Cobra crash bar.
Great bike. 50 mpg back and forth to work sure beats what my Dodge pickup will do.
