+lancaster155 Looking to go up from my M50 to the M90... think its time for more power! I am 6ft and 250 and this M50 great around town but hit the freeway and at 65-70 she just feels like its starting to strain... Did you ever ride a M50? Guessing this is huge jump wish it was 1200-1300, but almost 1500 will be big as I will go I think!
+Stitchs Loft I never rode an M50 but my first and only other bike was a Buell Blast. The M90 is a powerful bike. It has no problems at highway speeds and can easily reach 115. It's shakes a little at low speeds but once you get into the higher RPMs, it smooths out dramatically. Don't let the 1500cc scare you, it's very manageable but responsive when you need it.
This looks like a great bike, but there is absolutely zero aftermarket support for it. I went to several websites looking for parts and accessories for the M90; nothing!
I have the same issue, but have learned a lot of parts will fit both the 90 and 109…. Had to do some research with OEM part #s and comparing etc. For Example, even though the M109 has a 240 rear tire on a wider wheel, you can unbolt the wheel and roll it right under the M90 and it bolts right up..
I had the chance to test drive one of these just this last Friday and Saturday and I love this bike. The power delivery is awesome as well as the handling. Its makes so much torque. I got a chance to ride this and the 109 and I like this better. The seat isn't as wide. I don't have to rev the motor up as high to make power and for me the wind protection is better then the 109. The 109 has better brakes then the 90 but the 90 stops well. The 90 is easier for me to handle at slow speeds and to me its a bit easier to lean it into the corners. I'm looking for a bigger bike for the wife and I and right now the 90 is at the top of the list. I've talked to people that have them and they love them and have had to do nothing other then basic maintenance to the bike. Its a great bike that needs better after market support.
It's a great bike and I see quite a few of them where I live. The people that have them love them. I ended up get a 1200 sportster for two reasons, price and customization. If I would have bought a new bike I would have gone for the M90
I love mine to. I have a 2007 model that had some upgrades done to it when I bought it. I've had it since the end of June this year and have put 3000 miles on it already! Those evo motors in the sportsters have been around since the 1980's so they don't have any kinks to work out now. If you do get a sporty replace the factory air box so that thing can breathe. That was the best mod I did to mine.
@@Desstrik I hit a lucky streak and found a 2015 Vulcan 900 Classic LT with only 300 miles on it. Got it from my bosses son in law, for a great deal. Wasn’t really exactly “my style” but I wanted another bike and couldn’t pass it up. While out riding a week later I stopped by my local dealership to check out accessories etc, and was looking at the other bikes. The owner , whom I’ve known a long time, walks up and says “looks like you are getting bored with it already”.. I was standing in front of a metallic thunder 2013 M90 with 1500 miles, “he says take it up the road”…. Needless to say, that is all it took, and we made a trade that day! The Vulcan was a great bike! But the torque of the M90 is so addictive. I have rode all my life and am 44 now so I didn’t want a rocket, but also didn’t want a couch… lol. Got the best of both worlds! And btw, I couldn’t agree more with the M90 needing way more aftermarket support! But I have found that sometimes even if they say it won’t fit the M90, or only fits M109, that they are wrong. Even after Emailing support asking if a part would fit, and them saying “I’m sorry, it won’t fit your bike,” I replied “are you sure cause my friend has this exact part number on his,” …. 2 days later I get a reply from support saying they were wrong and it will fit the m90 also. Wonder how many sales they have missed out on because of that?
Cons: No power, Expensive, Poor rear suspension, gas guzzler, you will get run over by every car on the highway above 50MPH. You can try to get a M90 or 109 if you can get one without paying the same price you would for a house.
I lot of people who don't know bikes buy the m90 or m109 and then find out later that you can get a suzuki 1000 sport bike for the same money and have more performance and power.
For a start, everyone grows older in age, there's nothing wrong with that. I like many have ridden sports performance bikes in the younger years and now know my body and myself enough to realise I hate being scrunched up and bent over and I no longer need to go at break neck speeds. Respect to any 'older' riders that still wish to ride GSXR1000's though.
Put the factory Suzuki screen on this and it will sit on the motorway at 110mph no problem with zero wind blast. Don't knock one till you own one. Drilled my pipes and it sounds like thunder too. Re the suspension, This bike just floats over bumps with ease.

I own the 09 m90 and love it. The power is mint as. It leans like a champ. Managed to do over 1000km in 3 days and handled like a champ.
I bought my M90 in 2009 when they were first released and I still love it! Lots of power, very reliable and quick!

Had my M90 and i love it 🙏🏾🌺❤️🏍💪🏾
Got my 2013 M90 , a week ago...smiling ever since.
Get the cobra swept exhaust. I got 1..love it so much
I love mine and I have cobra exhaust also
Got the M50, but the M90 seems like the goldilocks of the three M’s
Traded my Gsxr for an M90 and I'm much happier now

Thx for the info.
I'm wanting to get a bigger bike and stepup from my 07 Vulcan900 Custom, and this Boulevard1400 has my attention.

Cool.
A friend of mine has suggested the HD 1200Sportster.
He has a 2011 model and loves his.

Some of us just aren't into sport bikes and prefer cruisers
"People who don't know bikes" < compares cruisers to sport bikes.
