SUZUKI Boulevard C90 (2004-2005) Specs, Performance & Photos

The Suzuki VL1500 Intruder was a cruiser motorcycle with a feet-forward riding position, a shaft drive, and engine balance shafts manufactured by Suzuki from 1998 to 2004. In 2005, Suzuki rebrander its cruiser line-up under the Boulevard name, so in the same year, the Boulevard C90 was introduced with a few aesthetic changes and a fuel injection system instead of carburetors.

The Boulevard C90 delivered a massive amount of torque that was transformed into a quick acceleration in every gear and offered a spacious riding position, while its bold styling with lustrous paint and shiny chrome made the bike a real head-turner.

The 2005 Suzuki Boulevard C90 featured a double-cradle steel frame made of large diameter steel tubes for strength and rigidity while delivering a long 1,700 mm wheelbase with a rake angle set-up for a low seat height and a comfortable reach to the foot controls.

In the performance department, the bike had its heartbeat set by a 1,462cc four-stroke V-Twin air/oil-cooled engine that featured a race-proven fuel injection system derived from the Championship-winning GSX-R sports bikes that delivered low-mid range torque and acceleration.

As for the power figures, the V-Twin engine delivered an output power of 66 hp at 4,800 rpm and 115 Nm (85 lb-ft) of torque at 2,800 rpm. All that power was converted into speed by a five-speed manual transmission that spun the rear wheel through a shaft drive.
