Suzuki Boulevard S40
The Suzuki Boulevard S40 has a top speed of 145 km/h, produces 31 hp and weighs 179 kg. Motoryk rates it 6.5/10.
История Suzuki Boulevard S40 началась в 1986 году, когда он был представлен под названием Suzuki Savage LS650, что делает его одним из самых продолжительных одноцилиндровых круизеров в производстве. В 2005 году в рамках реорганизации линейки круизеров Suzuki Boulevard он был переименован в Boulevard S40. Его простота, легкая конструкция и доступная мощность делают его популярным выбором для начинающих райдеров и любителей классического круиза в стиле минимализма.

Что следует знать покупателям
Bulletproof Single Cylinder
The S40 uses a proven 652cc single-cylinder engine that has remained largely unchanged for decades, making it one of the most reliable and simple engines to maintain in its class.
Strong Resale Value
Due to its beginner-friendly reputation and low operating costs, the S40 holds its value well in the used market, often selling for close to its original MSRP even with moderate mileage.
Watch the Carburetor
The carbureted models are prone to gumming up if the bike sits unused for extended periods, so always inspect the carb and ask about storage history before purchasing a used S40.

"Честная простота, которая поощряет терпеливых и неторопливых гонщиков."
Этот одноместный двигатель объемом 652 куб. см работает с резким пульсом, который ощущается в ботинках, а при скорости менее 4000 об/мин он действительно удивляет, насколько хорошо он переносит городской трафик. Каждый день я ездил на машине один или два раза в день, а из-за низкой высоты сиденья фильтрация в городских условиях стала почти медитативной — с этим никогда не приходится сталкиваться. Холодным утром автомобилисту нужно постоянно удушаться, а при длительной поездке по шоссе от вибрации свыше 90 км/ч руки будут онеметь, но, как известно, в таких количествах вы работаете, а не сражаетесь. Это не тот мотоцикл, который скрывает свои недостатки, и для некоторых гонщиков именно в этом и заключается смысл честности.
Плюсы
Минусы
Ребрендированный Boulevard S40; небольшие обновления, вариант с впрыском топлива так и не был принят на вооружение, карбюраторный двигатель сохранен на протяжении всего производственного цикла.
Отзыв покупателя б/у
"A perfect starter bike you'll sell within two years."
$2,500-$4,500 usedThe S40 is basically Suzuki's answer to the question nobody asked — a 652cc single-cylinder cruiser that's been shuffled through their lineup since the Savage days with minimal updates. And honestly? That's not entirely a bad thing. The engine is bulletproof. These things run forever if the previous owner wasn't completely negligent, and finding one with under 15k miles is easy because most owners rode them twice a month. Used prices are laughably reasonable. Here's the honest truth though: this bike has one gear it likes — not literally, but that thumper engine runs out of steam around 65mph and starts vibrating like a paint mixer above 70. It's genuinely fun on back roads and around town, but the moment you hit a highway onramp you'll understand its limitations. For a new rider learning fundamentals or a commuter sticking to surface streets, it nails the brief. Just don't buy one expecting to grow into it — you won't. You'll outgrow it embarrassingly fast.
