Rider Profile

Best For	Best suited to riders with some experience handling heavy cruisers, given its substantial weight and long wheelbase.
Purpose	Built for relaxed highway cruising and long-distance touring rather than outright speed or sport riding.
Rider Fit	The low seat height is approachable, but the bike's considerable weight demands confident low-speed handling and decent upper body strength at a stop.
Character	A torque-rich, laid-back V-twin cruiser that delivers smooth, effortless power for boulevard and highway miles with classic touring comforts like a windscreen and saddlebags.
Not Ideal For	Not a good fit for riders seeking sharp cornering agility, off-road capability, or aggressive acceleration.

Feet:

At 700mm, a rider of 68.9" with a 31" (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2012 Suzuki Boulevard C90T, with a cramped knee angle of around 75 degrees and a slightly forward 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.
