How does this bike compare to the Suzuki C50T?

Same engine but the C50T has shaft drive and fuel injection, which makes it a better buy, I own an 04 Vulcan love it to death but would get a C50 if they had it out when I was looking.

I was interested in the new C50T and rode one (880km on the clock). First time on a cruiser but it felt nice and got some positive looks. Gearbox a lot smoother than my KLR650 but did not feel that much faster (must be the extra weight)If I had the cash I'd get the C50T with Shaft drive, fuel injection and the extra touring gear but saw a new Vulcan 800 Classic and it looks good. A dealer is asking almost 3K less than a C50T so Vulcan is a better buy. Can add screen and sissy bar later also have read the Kawa gearbox is not as smooth. There is a dealer who's agent for both and he said the Kawa cruisers are better built than the Suzuki - interesting.
Want to ride a Vulcan before buying but looks real nice bike at a great price.
