Segment: Custom/Cruiser
Production years: 2006
The Boulevard C90 was a cruiser motorcycle with a feet-forward position built by Suzuki in 2005, but from 1998 to 2004, the model was marketed as the Intruder.
In 2005, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer rebranded its cruiser lineup under the Boulevard name, and along with the changed name, Suzuki also added some cosmetic changes, along with some technical modifications such as a new fuel injection system borrowed from the GSX-R sports bikes, a 32-bit ECU, and a revised fuel tank.
Unlike the M90 series, which offered a modern interpretation of the classic cruiser, the 2006 Boulevard C90 remained faithful to its origins and offered a retro vibe with its deeply valanced fenders, a commanding chromed headlight, wide handlebars, and forward-mounted floorboards.
The 2006 Suzuki Boulevard C90 featured a double-cradle steel frame made of large-diameter steel tubes that improved strength and rigidity, with a 41 mm fork on the front and a swingarm linked to a single hidden shock absorber on the rear, which ensured the suspension and created a hardtail look.
In the performance department, the bike featured a 1,462cc four-stroke air/oil-cooled engine that featured Suzuki Electrochemical cylinder plating and a race-derived fuel injection system for low-mid throttle response and high torque output.
As for the power figures, the bike delivered an output power of 66 hp with a peak at 4,800 rpm and 115 Nm (85 lb-ft) of torque at 2,800 rpm.
