I love when engineers design bikes as if they're going to own one, getting that weight down low makes a huge difference on these heavy cruisers, I'm really glad you pointed that out.
I had the 2004 VL1500LC. This was the last year for carbureted engines. I swear, the LC stood for Lounge Chair. It was the most comfortable bike I've ever owned.
I have purchased a 2004 myself. Once the decompresion cable was properly adjusted is a dream bike to ride and handling and stopping power is more than enough. With a bit bigger fuel tank would be perfect.
First off ill say I am not super into religion but what a lot of people might not know is that most of them if not all of them are born again Christians. (or something along those lines) I applaud how honest and raw and straight forward SRK seems in videos at least. They are never trying to screw people over nor cause any harm or anything remotely considered being bad lol. IDK IM ZOOTED
I find it very comfortable to deal with Born Again Christians. Although I am a Convert myself but not yet ready to do that extra step to become born again but 'I am trying, Ringo...' I can not imagine a Born Again Christian to screw someone over for money. ❤
Just got a 2008, love it. First bike I ride in 30 years, yet easy to handle even though I'm 5'10" 160 lbs. Plenty of power for my weight. Love the word of wisdom as well. There little wisdom in the world outside the Bible.
Those C90's are definitely some rad bikes. I would love to build a chopper out of one. With that super low gas tank it opens up a plethora of creative ideas. Throw in the fuel injection to boot, that in itself allows for any possible pipe combo one can conjure up. No carb to jet the computer will do it for you. I dig it
That was my re-entry bike two years ago after not riding for 30 years. For someone with previous experience it was a bliss to re-learn on this bike for the reasons mentionned. Reliable, low center of gravity, comfortable and all. Limited power though.
I’ve got a 2000 Intruder 1500, my ONLY gripe is the “double shift”. My feet are so damn big, that when I pick up my feet in first gear, I kick it down into neutral on myself
I had the same problem, plus kicking down with the heal is vicious on the linkages!! Solution, cut the back half off, and toe shift front only...works awesome and is way kinder on the linkages 👍🏻

That's the part of the videos that I really don't get and that I always fast forward. It really must be an American thing, mixing business with religion like that, but the rest of Sean's (I hope I spelled his name the right way) reviews are well done, they seem as honest as any sales related review can be and they're always informative. The remainder of the video is always worth watching after skipping the scripture, so I keep giving him the likes and watching. There's no more need to hate on religion than there is to push it, so I just enjoy the reviews and avoid the preaching. We all dig motorcycles, and that's what is most important.
I literally bought an 06 Suzuki boulevard c90t with 55k miles because of this video! I’m 6,4 450lbs and I actually fit well on it. Thank you for helping me pick my bike!

@@57HEMIviken I've got a 2005 GSX750F Katana right now. The only cruiser I had before was a 08 Honda Shadow 750 spirit and I do regret getting rid of that bike some 5 years ago. I traded in for a Honda DN-01. If you dont know what a DN01 is look it up lmao
I had an M50 - nice bike with shaft drive & fuel injection. Just not very quick feeling. I came from a Yamaha YZF600R so of course it wasn't going to feel like that, but I still was left wanting more power. The seat also killed my ass on long rides haha.
I got a friend who see that I was "Having a Mid Life Crisis" having just turned 41. I want a fricken bike! I thought I had an 04 Savage (Starter bike for me) but the salesman came in the next day (yesterday) and told the kid at the counter "I sold that, you can't sell him that bike, took a deposit on it last fall". He then tried to talk me into an older model with more miles, higher price and needed work. Needless to say, I walked out. So back to my friend. He hits me up last night, offered me is 2nd bike, (Has a Harley now), a 2006 C90. I keep watching these videos (Especially this channel!) and damn, this might be a better move for me! I am 6-2 and about 350! Friends all got big cruisers, if I want to go along for ride time, toward my license, I want to be able to hang with them not hold them up!! But I also see the perks of the handling of this model and the previous 1500 Intruders. I know of several who had and still have the 1500 Intruder and love them. C90 I gain fuel injection. Oh. That reminds me, he put a Gman Bully tuner on the bike, said I can easily get over 45MPG if mileage is what I like while gaining performance in hilly areas.

Great videos. Love the scriptures. I bought a fully custom c90 this year and front shocks are being worked on. Can't wait to ride it. I'm also 6"2 260lbs bike is great. My other bike is a 2001 bandit 1200s lots of fun
I just recently purchased a used 2000 intruder 1500 LC, yes it needs some love, but honestly its a great bike. I took it to a city 2 hours from me, and i put up with my driving lol 120km/hr to 130km/hr the whole way! Even with the work that needs to be done! Only issue i have with the bike, is that it could use a higher fuel capacity! Other then that i am completely satisfied with the bike, considering i had a 2020 harley street glide before. I did get a smokin deal tho 2500 cash and 2 previous owners! Anybody reading this ride safe!
I traded in my 2005 for a 2017. Nice bikes for the money. Same model but totally different machines as far as handling and stopping power. Truthfully, the 2005 was better in a lot of ways. But as you said the batteries were always being changed out. I think it was a stator issue. That issue has been fixed on newer models. Also, the gas tank is no longer under the seat. Which changes the center of gravity. Though the newer models have a larger fuel capacity. The newer models also have a higher ground clearance. Less scraping of the floor boards. The one thing that really ticks me off though. Is that they changed to single disc in the front. So stopping is quite a bit harder. Still a great bike though no matter how you look at it. Bang for the buck.
My stator in the 2004 model (carburated) desintegrated. I replaced by a modern one from a Dutch company and has done wonders for around 120 dollars, best money spent on those bikes.
Thanks for the encouragement brother I watch your videos before and thought they were pretty good but once I discovered you share the same beliefs as me I hit that subscribe button
My dad picked one up for dirt cheap with 40k miles on it. Runs like champ, needed tires, and little love cosmetically. Its a super comfortable bike, and would almost be perfect if I were a bit taller.
I'm a taller guy (6'5") and for my first bike I wanted something that fit and also that would have no problem carrying me and the wife. It's very approachable and easy to ride for a bigger bike, and with a few mods you can get some more power. I enjoy it a lot and for 3700 bucks the price was right. The fuel tank is kind of small, but I don't mind stopping to stretch my legs every couple hours.
It's a big bike. But for a tall guy it should be easy. And it has plenty of comfort and power. Just keep the lady off of the back until you get comfortable with it.
Coming from someone who's previous bike was a C50 Boulevard, I didn't really know these ones existed. Kinda wishing I upgraded to one of those instead of my Honda VTX 1800c that I now own. Then again, my bike has a little bit more power than this C90 and I absolutely love it. The only thing I could complain about is the mpg drop. It averages 25-30 mpg which is kinda lame in my opinion. Yes, it's a big muscle bike with a motor well over twice the size of my C50, but then again my friend who upgraded to an Indian Chieftain around the same time I got my VTX easily gets 50 mpg on the freeway, and his Indian has a motor roughly the same size as mine, if not bigger... lol
I have never rode a Suzuki C90. However, my good friend owns a 2000 Suzuki 1500. I have rode this bike twice and did not enjoy it. For me, the bike felt too big, and it was tough to push around when preparing to park. I hope this bike is better.
I've always liked the C90, and I've been afraid of them. They have that starting problem, that can leave you stranded. If somebody's found a fix for it I'd be all over one. So does anybody know if they found a fix yet?
Jim Bennett yes they do. Tighten up the cable on the decompression solenoid. There are a few videos that show it. Worked great on my bike with 100k plus miles.

Check the decomp cable and there's a wiring mod that improves voltage and stability of the electrical system. Take care of those and you've got a first-rate reliable cruiser.
@@channell11 I may have to pick one up. I picked up a C50 to flip a couple of years ago and liked that thing so much that I didn't even list it for a year. I was on the Volusia forum and that's when I decided I couldn't risk the C90, but if they have it sorted out, I would love to have one. Thanks
Had one baught it cheep for 3k and loved it. Had road burner exhaust witch is way better then cobras. Loved the fuel tank design but downfall was small tank.

when you back off the throttle, the blurp blurp blurp should not be there in the stock exhause....it is either a custom exhaust or there is a whole/leak somewhere in the exhaust and custom/leak with the exhaust could be the reason the FI light is on while riding....
-Reading about the changing demographic, [young generation not into motorcycles] affecting motorcycling in general, the cruisers are not in demand as previously, when countless numbers were sold, swamping the market. Makes it good for those interested today. Also noting the Adventure touring fad now in play.
One like that was around 11K new, and they're 10-15 years old now, and based on a design that dates back to the 90's. They also depreciate faster than a comparable Harley.
It depends on how big you are. It's not a beginner bike. Unless you are a very big person. That would make the bike feel smaller and lighter. I wouldn't recommend trying to learn on it. Or pass the licensing part of it.
I have the same bike with the same pipes. Pipes doesn't cause the F1 light. Also the T is the tour model and the windshield and passenger back rest is missing on this bike
the FI light on while riding is a 'warning'...the FI light should not be on if there is nothing wrong with the FI...it is a dummy light. The light being on does not mean it is FI...
@@Blogengezer nothing to really tune on an EFI bike..spark plugs should be good to 50,000+ miles and if FI is functional, shouldnt need recalibrated or remapped...
You don't tune a stock bike, but if you start adding modifications that change airflow (like cams, high flow air filter, exhaust) then you have to use a fuel controller to adjust the fuel delivery; as the stock computer won't adjust enough. The backfires mean the bike is running a little too lean.

@@channell11 I may have to pick one up.
I picked up a C50 to flip a couple of years ago and liked that thing so much that I didn't even list it for a year. I was on the Volusia forum and that's when I decided I couldn't risk the C90, but if they have it sorted out, I would love to have one. Thanks
Also clutch lever switch wears out.
Had one baught it cheep for 3k and loved it. Had road burner exhaust witch is way better then cobras. Loved the fuel tank design but downfall was small tank.
Yeah 1500cc and 3.7 gal tank lol
Where do u guys find these deals pls help
I'm thinking about buying a pre-owned 5 year old triumph bonneville from a local dealer. They've had it for a few months, maybe longer. Should I try to negotiate them down a bit? I'm curious how much wiggle room there might be. Any tips for rolling in there and getting the best deal possible? I'll be paying cash, not financing it if that makes a difference. Thanks.

Just punch in the VIN or vehicles info and it spits out the fair market value.
@@RossMalagarie Thanks. Looks like the market value is a thousand dollars more than they're asking, but I'm still going to try to talk them down a bit.
@@daveco1270 I always email an offer $1,500 less than asking price out the door with shipping and all taxes and feed. Then after they say no I offer $1k less, then $500 less. Of course I tell them I'm pre-approved by my credit union and going to buy when the numbers are right.
Ross Malagarie thanks. good advice. I’m planning on paying cash rather than financing the bike.
I went to the c90t from the c50, its bigger more powerful and I 'm planning to keep it.Great bike ,too cold(maine) now,but April is coming.
I have recently done the same. Love it so far!
Im looking forward to the day i put a backpack on hop on a cruiser and take off on a long trip
I say a prayer before every ride. You never know when you will meet your maker when on a bike at highway speeds.
4:41 man, that sounds nice!
I know this is kinda a late comment but I drive a 650 v star and it cruises comfortably at around 70 but still kind of feels like I’m pushing it I’m looking at trying to get one of these but my main concern is am I gonna feel like I’m pushing it trying to cruise at 80 ?
In the market for a new bike hoping to check you guys out this weekend
Idk how expensive bikes usually are where y'all are located but I got a mint condition Honda Shadow 1100 for $1900
ThatRealCoolWhiteGuy Wow that's pretty cheap. Private sale I'm guessing or an older bike
@@ryanbruneau1197 it's a 2002 but I mean bikes in general around here aren't that expensive. I live in Virginia. There were a couple 2008 shadows with 10k miles and they were like $2500
Hav a 2000 vl1500 lc this bikes big heavy an badass looking an no issues mechanically
That's an amazing weight I've had issues with 460lb nakeds in the wind but I bet this will fly through wind without much drift
What brand are your boots?! Would love to get my husband a pair!
Love your videos!
when you back off the throttle, the blurp blurp blurp should not be there in the stock exhause....it is either a custom exhaust or there is a whole/leak somewhere in the exhaust and custom/leak with the exhaust could be the reason the FI light is on while riding....
There's pipes on it
I like those boots, what kind are they?
That's the exact bike I got based on the reviews here
If you had to choose! Suzuki c90t or Honda Vtx 1300???
Wow, those are 13k or more OTD new. Why do they lose so much value?
-Reading about the changing demographic, [young generation not into motorcycles] affecting motorcycling in general, the cruisers are not in demand as previously, when countless numbers were sold, swamping the market. Makes it good for those interested today. Also noting the Adventure touring fad now in play.
I think Suzuki’s in general don’t hold there value as good as out bikes.
One like that was around 11K new, and they're 10-15 years old now, and based on a design that dates back to the 90's. They also depreciate faster than a comparable Harley.
Shaun, I think you got a bad ground on that Neutral light. Looked like it was flickering a touch. Otherwise... sexy bike! God bless, stay safe!
This is the bike I need to get. How is it for a first bike?
It depends on how big you are. It's not a beginner bike. Unless you are a very big person. That would make the bike feel smaller and lighter. I wouldn't recommend trying to learn on it. Or pass the licensing part of it.
Those are the same as the suzuki intruder 1500 i have one and its a nice bike
That bike is about 10k for a used 2006 around here.. how do you get it for under 4k
where are you guys located??
How much for a new one ?
How do i get this bike
I have the same bike with the same pipes. Pipes doesn't cause the F1 light. Also the T is the tour model and the windshield and passenger back rest is missing on this bike
Where is your dealership at so I can buy me a decent bike under $4,000 like the one you showing
mu+y '05 c90t has a cobra exhaust and I dont have any dash lights on
Do you ever come across a C109?
Great advice/ review from someone who knows his labor
God bless 🙏👍💙
Is that bike liquid cooled?
Oil cooled using GSXR tech!
Yes liquid cooled fueled injected and shaft driven all 3 are great!
I paid 2800 for my speedmaster. Best bike I have ever owned.
I owned a 2007 Speedmaster, me too, best bike I have ever owned.
Why is the F1 light on?
Pipes
I'm 6'3" and can only get 6.30s 0-60, Tuned! but I weight 265lbs too though. Love my bike though, so comfy!
Is it a 6-speed or a 5
5 speed.
the FI light on while riding is a 'warning'...the FI light should not be on if there is nothing wrong with the FI...it is a dummy light. The light being on does not mean it is FI...
-Noted. Curious about the few backfires at shift, as well, if FI, not normal. Possibly tune?
@@Blogengezer nothing to really tune on an EFI bike..spark plugs should be good to 50,000+ miles and if FI is functional, shouldnt need recalibrated or remapped...
If these guys were closer, I would buy the C90...any savings are lost for a fly and ride...
You don't tune a stock bike, but if you start adding modifications that change airflow (like cams, high flow air filter, exhaust) then you have to use a fuel controller to adjust the fuel delivery; as the stock computer won't adjust enough. The backfires mean the bike is running a little too lean.
S50 Is official do they have an S 90
I love the Bible wisdom - something the modern world is truly lacking.
Very true
Yup, like
1 Timothy 2:11 - 15
Peter Forster that’s what made me a subscriber
It has impressed me.
@@Srkcycles try revelation's 2:9 & 3:9 and than might I kindly refer you to the Balfour Declaration document... + the #Nakba.. + the #USSLiberty .. + #RachelCorrie.. + 9/11 according to Dr Alan Sabrosky, former marine & director of US Army War College.. + countless more crimes against humanity
Don.t you just love his stops at the sign most riders do this but becareful double check both ways.
Love the videos cant wait to get my bike license keep up the good work
glad i happened upon this vid, thank you for making it.
this may sound weird but i just traded in my c50 boulevard for a 2002 indian super chief... and i have to say i enjoyed riding my susuki more.... go figure.
sometimes a person's body just fits a particular build of a bike.... .kinda like what you were saying in this vid. def a good all around bike...i called it my goldilocks bike as it was "just right". not too little, not too big.
The only thing I liked about my M109R2 more than the C90 is the radiator , If the C90 had the radiator I would probably get one. The Honda VTX 1800 is what I ended up going back to. I have never seen anything else that is more reliable.
2013+ c90 have radiator
So the fake gas tank is just empty space?
hello like the all of your content

What about financing with people with Challenging credit ?? Can you guys help ?? May God Bless you guys and keep you safe on the road..
I own one and they are great bikes .
