In the story you wrote, you say Suzuki Thailand has financing for foreigners available, what do I need to qualify?

As foreigner living and working in Thailand you need obvious a copy of your passport and valid visa, you also need a copy of your work permit and bank statements for the last 6 months.

If you the owner of a company in Thailand you need a few more papers, but I can assure you that the sales assistant at the Suzuki Big Bike showroom can tell you all about this.

What if you in Thailand on a retirement visa and have no work permit? Things become a bit more complicated, but you best contact your own Thai bank and look how financing is possible… Of course you can always ask the sales assistant at the Suzuki Big Bike showroom for assistance. It’s not impossible, but just a bit more difficult…

How does the Suzuki Boulevard C50 compare to the Kawasaki Vulcan models?

The Suzuki Boulevard C50 and the Kawasaki Vulcan 900 both have the same DNA, they predecessors were developed in the time that Kawasaki and Suzuki worked together.

And you can still find a lot of similarity between the Kawasaki Vulcan 900 and the Suzuki Boulevard C50, they have the same 33 degrees rake. They have basically still the same 5 speed transmission. And while the Kawasaki Vulcan moved to a 900cc combustion size and gained a bit more performance the Suzuki Boulevard C50 is with its modern technology not far behind and is nearly 120,000 THB lower in price.
