SUZUKI Boulevard C90T B.O.S.S. (2012-2013) Specs, Performance & Photos

In 2013, the Japanese manufacturer launched a special model of the C90 base motorcycle with a T suffix added to its name and B.O.S.S. letters to complete its full name, where T stands for Touring and B.O.S.S for Blacked Out Special Suzuki.

The 2013 Suzuki Boulevard C90T B.O.S.S retained all the tech features from the base model and included hard leather-covered side cases designed as part of the bike and a touring windscreen that provided ample wind protection.

The bike came in a blacked-out livery composed of a black frame, black engine with chromed rocker covers and fins, black exhaust system, black fork, black cast-aluminum wheels, and black fenders. The bike was a traditionally styled cruiser that featured a perfect rider triangle drawn by the footboards, handlebar, and seat position, which delivered classic control and excellent comfort.

In the performance department, the B.O.S.S model featured a 1,462cc four-stroke V-Twin liquid-cooled engine with each aluminum-alloy cylinder coated with a Suzuki Composite Electrochemical Material (SCEM) that reduced friction and increased heat transfer. Also, it featured a dual spark plug system on each piston that improved combustion and fuel efficiency while igniting the fuel sent by a Suzuki Dual Throttle Valve (SDTV) fuel injection system controlled by a 32-bit ECM that provided smooth throttle response and strong torque.

As for the power figures, the bike developed an output power of 66 hp with a peak at 4,800 rpm and 115 Nm (85 lb-ft) of torque available at 2,800 rpm. Hot, burnt gasses produced by the engine were released through a blacked-out exhaust system designed for a deep rumbling V-Twin sound and tuned for low-end torque.
