The Suzuki Boulevard C50 (VL800) is a cruiser motorcycle made by Suzuki Motor Corporation since 2001. Prior to 2005, the model was named the Volusia for Volusia County, Florida, where it was unveiled at the 2001 Daytona Bike Week.[2] In 2005, Suzuki re-branded it as the Suzuki Boulevard C50. It follows the formula of a smaller yet capable engine fitted into a frame sized for a slightly larger engine, a popular combination also in use by Honda, Kawasaki, and Yamaha in their respective cruiser lines.
