2013 Suzuki Boulevard C90T B.O.S.S

Since a while rumors were flowing that Suzuki Motor Corporation is leaving the US market filing for bankruptcy. Well, last week at the annual dealer meeting Suzuki made things clear that it will be leaving the US auto market and will shift its focus to its powersports and marine divisions. At the same meeting Suzuki also announced its 2013 model year lineup for US market which includes the latest cruiser of its line-up, the 2013 Boulevard C90T B.O.S.S.

The Boulevard C90T BOSS is essentially a Suzuki M90 cruiser as both share the same main frame, engine, transmission, exhaust system, cooling system, and final drive. The word BOSS (B.O.S.S)used at the end of its name stands for Blacked-Out Special Suzuki and for sure this cruiser looks all black.
