2009 Suzuki Boulevard M90

The 2009 MY Boulevard M90 is a n all-new cruiser derived from the flagship M190R beast. This includes the aggressive lines and the engine, as well. You're looking at a liquid-cooled long-stroke v-twin with massive torque and 4 valves per cylinder,with a 200mm rear wheel, driven by a shaft and a 5-speed manual gearbox.

A new chassis and swingarm provides fluid, intuitive handling and a low center of gravity for a reassuring feel while the cast aluminum alloy wheels and USD forks add a modern touch and present-day performance to this lean and mean cruiser.

2010 Suzuki Boulevard M90

The Boulevard M90 is a very good example of how big-bore machines can be made to look and feel much more agile than one would normally expect. If you think this is one lazy-ass beast, hop on on,e twist the throttle and hang on. This machine can do 200 km/h without enormous effort, and it will feel equally rewarding in the urban clutter, as well. That is because its generous v-twin engine has both power and torque to spare in pretty much any place of the rev range.

Precise fuel injection and sport bike-derived suspensions and brakes make handling sharp and the ride quite comfy, as the ergonomics have been tweaked for both good looks and long-range worthiness. Cue cast wheels, the frowning looks of the headlight and chrome in all the right places for a machine that's a blessing to ride.

2012 Suzuki Boulevard M90

The 2012 MY Boulevard M90 packs muscle, style and road worthiness into a single bike that looks just as good as it feels when rolling down the road. Retaining the frowning, mean looks of the entry-point M50, the M90 almost doubles the displacement and increases the fun tenfold.

Loaded with a lot of parts inspired from the superbike world, the 2012 MY Boulevard M90 shows off its massive USD forks and can even be equipped with a passenger seat cowl. The bike also comes with a slipper clutch, and this is yet another thing you just don't see everyday in the cruiser world. Add in chrome in all the right places and get ready to own the road.

2013 Suzuki Boulevard M90

"A cruiser with a passenger cowl and USD forks can't be a good thing" might be a phrase you hear from a guy who is into classic, old-school bikes. However, if you are a rider who lives in the present and has eyes on the future, the 2013 MY Boulevard M90 is all you need to start with. It's got solid power and monstrous torque right off idle, and will be on par with a lot of sport bikes when it comes to acceleration.

Sport-derived suspensions are a good match for other high-tech features, such as the back-torque-limiting assist clutch, cast alloy wheels, dual disc front brakes and racing-inspired injection. How veil will you become aboard the Boulevard M90 it's only down to you and you alone.

2015 Suzuki Boulevard M90

Faithful to the vibe Suzuki's modern cruisers became famous for, the 2015 MY Boulevard M90 retains the aggressive lines and massive looks. Cast wheels painted black complement the blackened radiator and frame, complementing the shiny chrome details of the engine and exhaust system. The M90 is not at all shy to show off its superbike-derived parts, such as the upside-down fork and chunky dual-rotor brakes.

At the heart of this beast you've got an 1462cc liquid-cooled v-twin power plant mated to a 5-speed gearbox and shaft final drive. Games are over when the Boulevard M90 shows up on the street.
