Lo que los compradores deben saber
Rock-Solid Engine Reliability
The C90's 1462cc V-twin engine is widely regarded as one of Suzuki's most dependable powerplants, with many owners reporting 50,000+ miles with minimal issues beyond routine maintenance.
Watch for Carburetor Issues
Pre-2010 carbureted models are prone to gummed-up carbs from ethanol fuel or long storage periods — always inspect for rough idling or hard starting before buying used.
Strong Resale Value
The C90 holds its value better than many cruisers in its class, partly due to its reputation for longevity and the loyal Suzuki Boulevard community keeping demand steady.

Presentado como Boulevard C90 en sustitución del Intruder VS1400; plataforma VL1500 con motor bicilíndrico en V de 1462 cc con inyección de combustible, estilo clásico de crucero.
"Un crucero grande y honesto que se gana la vida a diario."
El C90 tira con fuerza desde el momento en que pisas el acelerador: su motor bicilíndrico en V de 1462 cc ofrece sus 118 Nm tan bajos en la gama de revoluciones que apenas necesitas cambiar de marcha, y la inyección de combustible hace que los arranques en frío sin problemas en comparación con los días del Intruder con carburadores. Conducir a 110 km/h da la sensación de pausado, casi perezoso, y ese es exactamente el punto: si superas los 140 km/h, la ráfaga de viento que sale de esa estrecha pantalla se convierte en una auténtica conversación. Con 326 kg sobre mojado, maniobrar a baja velocidad en los aparcamientos exige respeto y algo de musculatura en los hombros, y el espacio libre sobre el suelo es lo suficientemente estrecho como para que, al tomar curvas más enérgicas, puedas hacer cromo antes de lo esperado. No es emocionante desde el punto de vista deportivo, pero si recorres 400 kilómetros en un día con esta moto, llegarás menos cansado que con muchas bicicletas de la mitad de su tamaño.

Reseña de un comprador usado
"Solid, unfussy cruiser that rewards relaxed riders who maintain it."
$3,500-$7,500 usedThe C90 is Suzuki's answer to the Harley Softail crowd, and honestly it does a decent job. The 1462cc V-twin pulls strong from low revs, the riding position is relaxed without being punishing, and the chrome work holds up well if the previous owner wasn't lazy with maintenance. For highway cruising it's genuinely comfortable, but don't expect it to carve corners — this thing weighs 700+ pounds and it knows it. Used examples from the mid-2000s are everywhere and prices have stayed sensible. Watch out for neglected carburetors on pre-2009 models before fuel injection arrived — they gum up badly if the bike sat unused. Check the floorboard mounts for rust, inspect the final belt drive for cracking, and make sure the turn signals aren't corroded through. These aren't dealbreakers, just typical used-bike homework. It's never going to excite you the way a performance bike does, but that's not the point. The C90 is a dependable, comfortable mile-eater that won't leave you stranded.
