Rider Profile

Best ForSuited to riders who already have some experience with heavy machines, as the substantial weight and long wheelbase demand confident low-speed handling.
PurposeBuilt primarily for relaxed cruising and boulevard riding rather than outright speed or agility.
Rider FitRiders benefit from decent height and arm strength to manage the low seat combined with the bike's considerable mass at parking-lot speeds.
CharacterA big-inch V-twin cruiser that rewards a laid-back, torque-driven riding style with a strong emphasis on classic cruiser presence and shaft-drive smoothness.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for riders seeking sharp cornering ability, sporty performance, or any off-road capability.

2005 Suzuki Boulevard C90 Black Rider Ergonomics Assessment

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 700mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2005 Suzuki Boulevard C90 Black, with a cramped knee angle of around 75 degrees and an upright riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
