Suzuki Boulevard C50 Bobber Build FINAL DAY
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 16 ก.ค. 2015
- WOOHOO It's DONE! And it is AWESOME! I LOVE the way it came out both in appearance and especially the way it rides! I think most of the difference is all the parts I replaced - new shock and all new bearings - plus the BlueCollarBobbers.com seat is OUTSTANDING. Absolutely perfect, you just float down the road in style! It finally stopped raining long enough to give it a wash, revealing the GORGEOUS white walls! I went down to the gas station to fill her up and had a blast through the neighborhood. I got the garage all cleaned back up, tools away (I really need a big tool chest now) and did the official 'after' photoshoot. I also go over the costs of the project in detail, plus talk about what worked well and what didn't so if you are interested in your own project you have a better understanding of what to expect. Oh yeah, I talk about some STUPID mistakes I made so you can avoid them. Big props again to BlueCollarBobbers for the excellent quality parts!

It was a real pleasure being a virtual guest in your garage.
Thanks for sharing your project with us!
Hold on!!! You're on of my favorite cigar guys!
I watched most of your series on your C50 build, and got inspired to reignite my motorcycle life. Haven't been on a bike in 5 years, but picked up a super sweet (with ALL the extras) 2005 C50, yesterday. Thanks.
watching this has made me decide to do a Boulevard C50 Bobber build myself
I watched this 5 years later and the final result was very nice.
Congratulations! Watching this build was an absolute blast, such a perfect second bike to have.
Hey Bryan,
I just finished the series, had me entertained all week. I just got the same year c50 last Friday and it was great to watch you show in detail how things come off, how things go on , maintenance etc. mine has a nice sounding cobra exhaust and air filter with the power commander 3 hooked up and a sporty handlebar like yours and a good looking tank bra. I just passed the msf class a couple weeks back and this is my first bike. It's got just over 19000 miles and will see many more now. Thanks again, your effort is appreciated and I hope your wife got the job or at least all that crap out of your garage so you can do another project!
She's a beauty! Great color and the whitewalls really set it off. Thanks for sharing your project!
I just got a steal of a deal for a C50 in the spring as a present to myself for my birthday, 1.5k miles for $4,000. Absolutely love it.
...good job ...an example of learning by doing, successful ...congratulations!...
been watching your vids for a while bikes i've considered, and this one felt like i got to meet you finally. And i liked the experience. Very intelligent and organized!
Excellent finished product Bryan... It was all worth every minute and I enjoyed watching the project from start to finish.
Thanks for sharing this project. If you had told me a month ago I would be watching a rebuild of a motorbike I would have called you nuts, but really looked forward to the uploads. Great project and you have done an outstanding job. Much appreciated
Beautiful bike love it and this series, its shown me a lot love to see another one in the future!
Awesome job, well done!! I have a 2008 C50 and have done some work on it. But it doesn't compare what you have done with this bike. I watched the whole series whenever I had a chance. You done an excellent job explaining and showing the steps taken. I am kind of sad that it is finished. I guess now I will check out your site. Once again awesome job, the bike looks sick!!
Hard to believe it's the same bike you started with. Fantastic project, Bryan. Thanks for sharing.
It looks great Bryan! Excellent job on the video series also. I'm not a bike owner but watching your TWO videos puts me in the mind to find one. Thanks so much for taking us along for the ride.
Well done my friend. Well Done! ~Hilman
That whole series was very awesome. Good job.
This is an excellent video brother! You did a phenomenal job she is gorgeous! I am doing the same thing my bike . My 2004 will hopefully look a lot like your bike when I'm finished God willing. Again thank you so much for sharing this friend! Maybe someday we'll ride together brother God bless you
Your bobber,looks amazing! Good job,bravo!
I also bought these emblems but I heated them gently enough to enable me to bend then where required , let them cool in the said position and fitted them to the bike without any problem.
She looks absolutely beautiful! I'm a big fan of red especially a red like that. I can relate to doing things when tired and making mistakes and not having the sense to walk away from it. Looking forward to seeing the new videos with that lovely exhaust note. Well done.
Congrats on your new toy. Well done. Thanks for sharing your experience/expertise with us. Ride safe.
It LOOKS AWESOME! Good job! Love the color and the whitewalls.
I've gotta learn to ride and get one. Your hard work paid off...nice custom bike!
Finally just finished the project videos , and it’s perfectly done congrats and great job I think i’ll do it too but needs to change the exhaust.
Bravo nice job.. well done. I agree with Bob Oliver below use the heat gun and get them really warm while over something with the same profile, heat them till they sag to the same shape and let them cool under gravity then they will stay that shape.
Wow!!!! Bryan it turned out GREAT!!!! nice job... you had some headaches but you pulled through.. love the color.. good choice. makes me want to do a bobber project. thanks again for the great series of videos on your bobber..
Nice work! I am in Tampa bay as well. And I hear you on working in summer here. It's often too hot to work on garage projects.
love what you've done. I'm looking to start riding. I'm not sure I could do all of want you did with this build but it looks great.
The bike looks awesome. Good job.
Wow! Absolutely beautiful bike!
Great job buddy...Keep it up !!!
Very nice job.
Kudos to you !
What a lovely bike man!
congrats on finishing your bobber
Excellent I am planning buy this model next week and I will reopen all 24 videos.
I HAVE to do one now!! This winter hopefully.
Hey Brian, what a surprise? I am a fan of your (cigar obsession) and your cigars reviews. Recently - 4 months ago - I bought a Boulevard C-50, the same color of yours. So, I go often to youtube to "learn" things etc etc... and it was a surprise learn that my cigar guru has a Suzuki. By the way, good job!
Very nice videos, great work.
Congrats.
Looks awesome!!!
this bike is so cool, I love these bobber kit projects. I have a 2003 Volusia 800 with 39000 on it and have been thinking about it for a while. I don't have your patience though. I'd be throwing shit all over the garage. You did a great job it is awesome
looks great !!!
Great job !!!!!
That is beautiful!
+jackjetpilot Thanks!
Awesome!
Beautiful bike
Bike looks great and the video series was excellent. As good as any 'car guy' channel I've seen.
Very nice! 👍
Well done mate. Looks great and I love the color. Good choice of color for the seat also. Not sure if the exhaust mod on your exhaust has been done but if not it does give you a deeper note compared to the original exhaust and is quite an easy mod to do. Look forward to a vid of you cruising around on it. Cheers.
Ron Wyatt Yep already gutted :)
Hello , Incredible sound and beautiful suzuki, for me it's an excellent machine and the background music is fantastic , I Am the owner of aF SUZUKI VL 800 2001 AND i LOVE IT, congratulations for your bike, nice really very nice job
Nice bike!
Wow, fantastic job,you've done there...Bravo again...You know what ! Your name plate there (Boulevard) take them of the tank and then first put them agains the tank and with that air blower, try to give them the same shape your tank have,it's plastic you will be able to replicate the shape you need and you wont have any problem to glue them on the tank,no drilling no cut...Just a little heat to bend them and it will fit like a glove...Have fun and thanks again i really enjoy watching you...Ta Da...BaDa Bing BaDa Boom....LoL.
Claude
AWESOME
I love it.
Have you tried using a heat gun on the emblem? It might relieve some of the stress in the plastic allowing you to mold it to the shape of the tank. Just a thought! Love the vids!
Love it.
Really enjoyed your project, you were really fast yet careful. I nearly had a heart attack when you said superglue! Let us know how you finish up with the emblems. I would have angled a piece of timber from the floor to the emblem to hold it tin place and some heat will probably help. Do a video of what it's like to ride, a road test. Cheers and now get some sleep.
looks good....
WHAT!!! I AM A SUBSCRIBER TO CIGAR OBSESSION... How did I find you here so random and so cool Ha! Hello!
Beautiful Bike...
Ryan love your knowledge on bikes you videos always help me so much I have a 2015 Suzuki boulevard c50 may I ask would you be able to guide me to see how could I install a second running light I have posi taps and posi locks I think I have a idea but I don't want to mess anything up. Please help me with that ..
Absolutely beautiful job! You have inspired me to do one. I'll wait till winter first. Oh how may times did you stub your toe since you were bear footed practically the whole time while you were doing this project? LOL!
Darin Marshall Same number of times the bike came plummeting down because I didn't use straps! lol ZERO ;)
Kool bike
I had a M109 for awhile. I clean all my new tires with brake clean to get all the release agent off...
Thanks 4 video i like ur bike I have a 2021 suzuki boulevard vl800 c50 it's Kool too I have no mods to it..
Try your heat gun on the badges just to re-shape them. I do it off the tank and the mount them
Or place badges in boiling water; It might allow the badges to be reshaped to the desired curvature.
Love the bike,only thing I would have done different is put on shorter pipes and pegs. But again that's all personal preference,truly looks great man.
Some matte black pipes would look sick.
Absolutely gorgeous bike. Looks like you kept the stock exhaust. I'm looking to buy a bike to convert to a bobber, but I don't like super loud straight pipes. Amazing job. I recognize you from tour cigar videos too, right?
Dang, I watched all of your videos about this bike and you nailed it, probably the best looking bobber I’ve ever seen, is there a way you can link everything you use to bob it? Like the seat fenders etc. I’m gonna get different light kits to save some money, BCB light are too expensive for me, anyway good job on this one.
Can you use a strong magnet to hold the badges on until the tape holds it?
A hair dryer might have softened the plastic emblem for shaping.
Wonder what the guy you bought it from would think of it now. Fantastic job. Norman
The best part of this is shaft drive, no more chain cleaning and lubing.
Beautiful bike. You inspired me to buy a c50 and convert it into a bobber. In your parts list. What size and brand white wall tires did you buy. Also what is the size of the seat 11" or 13?
Awesome even w/out the Blue wheels..lol!!
very nice do you have the link for the front and rear fenders and the seat base
What bars and risers?
Looks amazing
Use a heat gun on plastic to shape. Apply while hot and it should cool in place. Just don't scorch the chrome! lol This bike makes a nice bobber!
how much was the white wall tires?
Beautiful bike ... where did you get the rear and front fender? Love the white walls where can I get them
I like the bike! Was wondering ware you got the rear fender?
That bike looks sooo good!!! What color paint did you use? I know it is Yamaha from what you said.
still need a better exhaust, i would use a different tank, and try to get a manifold made so you can toss the airbox and use pod filters but all-in-all its not too bad. Also i would just take the badges off and leave them off.
This bike is awesome I have the same bike looking to do the same. Where did you get all the bobber build from
Awesome build I have a 2005 and I want to do that let me know how much will you charge me to do it
tried looking for the used bike checklist you mentioned... but i couldn't find it. which video is it?
Your intro music is the same as the intro music used for corporate training for the company I work for. I just placed it. It is disconcerting, but I still really enjoy your videos. Thanks for the welcome distraction.
Did you have to cut anything to install the bobber? Also do you have the link to the license plate attachment?
where did u buy all the bobber fenders and springer seat ?
Bike looks great. After watching all of these, I almost feel as bed as you do about the emblem FUBAR. That looks messy as you filmed it after you washed it. I wouldn't fool with it more. Id tape the the tank above and below and toothpick some 5 minute epoxy in there. Hold it for ten minutes (while enjoying a smoke) and bungee it like you said for a day. That stuff bonds just about anything really strong. Maybe try to clean up some of the old adhesive first
I live in Tampa. What's the locksmith that did the rekeying.
Bike turned out cool af! As far as the emblem is concerned, did you try a heat gun on it while it was off the bike and the shaped it to the bike while it was malleable before you tried to attach it?
What brand are those white walls I've been trying to do that to my 2009 Suzuki m50
Absolutely gorgeous.
Great music selection as well.
Have you noticed any issues with the smaller fairings letting the tires kick up water or dirt onto you?
The guy that bought it does lol.
Looks great! Pity about the paint, though. Overall I'd say a really damn good job! That bike has looks to spare B-)
םפ
I just picked up a 2006 M50 for $250, but it’s extremely corroded so researching converting it to a bobber
im bit late but the badges have LH and RH, if you put them the wrong way they will lift.
anyway good job on your build
