Positioned in Suzuki's custom - cruiser motorcycle lineup, the 2005 Suzuki Boulevard C90 utilizes a 1462 cc (89.2 cu in) oil & air-cooled v2, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, maximum torque reaches 115 Nm (84.8 lb-ft), transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and shaft drive (cardan) final drive. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 96.0 x 101.0 mm (3.8 x 4.0 inches) with a 8.5:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the Boulevard C90 measures 302 kg (666 lbs) dry.
