Here's my motorcycle

 

It's a 2006 Suzuki Boulevard S40. I bought it in August, 2006. It's a 650, but Suzuki and perhaps some other manufacturers have started measuring engine sizes in cubic inches instead of the old cubic centimeters. So a 40 cubic inch equals a 650 cc.

One of the interesting features about this bike is that it's a one cylinder. That means that it has tremendous low-end torque, so from a dead stop you can climb a tree in second gear without stalling. (Unless you're me.) As you can imagine, it has a little shake to it since it's a one-lunger (some people have called them "thumpers"), but it's not as pronounced as I assumed it would be. It's not a bike for long road trips as it doesn't have the necessary top speed. It's a good in-town bike, though.
