2005 Suzuki Boulevard M95[edit | edit source]
Big, bad, mean and exceedingly aggressive, the 2005 MY Boulevard M95 is Suzuki's take on the big-bore cruisers. The bike blends in the traditional design cues with modern approaches, such as the cast wheels, high-performance liquid cooling system, or the top-notch fuel injection, for a fast and precise throttle response and solid rider gratification.
The transmission has close ratios and this favors aggressive riding even more, adding a sporty vibe to a bike some may be tricked into believing it's lazy. The Boulevard M95 packs plenty of urban nerve while being equally useful for longer highway hauls at higher speeds.
