When it comes to motoring well out of town on the open road, the C109RT is easily up for the challenge. Standard equipment includes a big windshield, leather saddlebags and a passenger backrest, lending this classic-style cruiser long-range capabilities. As with all of Suzuki’s 109-cubicinch V-Twins, the RTs electronic fuel-injection features a Dual Throttle Valve system that delivers clean, crisp response when tapping the engine’s bountiful spread of low-end torque. Also available: The standard C109, which varies only in the absence of the windshield, saddlebags and backrest.

There’s nothing quite like the roar of a big V-Twin under hard acceleration, and the Boulevard M109R plays that tune to perfection. This cruiser packs as much Suzuki GSX-R sportbike performance heritage as could be wedged between its massive 240mm rear radial and inverted fork. Also available: The Boulevard M109R Limited has a unique paint scheme with a racing stripe, plus a dash with a carbon-fiberlook face, a clear taillight lens with red LEDs and a textured seat. The Boulevard M109 R2 differs only by virtue of its sleek headlight design.

The Boulevard C90T packs a boatload of touring accessories as standard quipment. Extended voyages for two can be shared in comfort and style from behind a tall windscreen that provides full wind protection. Spacious leather saddlebags with convenient twist-lock fasteners match the studded treatment on the passenger seat and unique pivoting backrest. The fuel-injected, six-valve, air/oil-cooled V-Twin provides excellent torque and smooth highway operation.

If the swooping form of the M109 family of muscle cruisers flexes your fancy but you value the handling traits of a narrower rear tire, the M90 is your ticket. Its 200-series rear radial ensures that no concessions have been made for fashions sake, and the liquid-cooled, long-stroke V-Twin delivers more than enough low-end torque to hold its rightful place on the boulevard. The M90 also features Suzuki’s advanced digital fuel-injection and engine-management systems that are designed to increase throttle response while also getting the most out of every drop of fuel.

An icon of performance for nearly a decade, the Hayabusa blends a cohesive mix of high-performance aerodynamics and a wickedly powerful engine to produce mind-staggering performance on the street and at the dragstrip. The Hayabusa got a substantial power boost last year via a 41 cc increase in displacement, along with upgraded front brakes and muscular new styling. Though this moto-missile’s super-stable chassis forces a sporting posture, the ergonomics are not so extreme as to rule out the ‘Busa as a sporting grand-touring rocketship-with the emphasis on “rocket.”

In living up to its name, the Bandit steals from the technology-rich GSX-R family to give the common man a practical, real-world sports machine with tons of go-power. Thanks to its liquid-cooled, fuel-injected, dohc engine, the Bandit 1250 is a true torque monster that practically makes gear-shifting an unnecessary bother. Plus, its half-fairing and upright seating position help it deliver all-day comfort. Also available: The Bandit 1250S ABS, the very same bike but equipped with anti-lock braking, offering a safer way to play on wet roads.

Despite already building the most dominant bike in the AMA Superbike championship, Suzuki isn’t resting on its laurels. Fresh off the drawing board comes a multitude of performance-enhancing updates intended to keep the mighty Gixxer at the top of its game. Our favorites include the Showa Big Piston Fork, featuring damping adjusters located on the fork cap, relegating spring preload to the base of the leg. A switch on the right handlebar allows the rider to select from three engine-performance settings to match riding conditions; and an electronically controlled steering damper varies damping force according to speed.

The V-Strom 1000 stands tall as a true do-everything motorcycle for riders who want it all. Its combination of a powerful V-Twin engine, nimble handling and an extremely spacious all-day riding position have proven to be just the recipe for the perfect adventure-touring experience. Don’t feel you have to head north to the Yukon, however, because the big ‘Strom makes a great daily commuter, as well, its standard-equipment tail rack allowing you to pack a laptop PC or a lunch pail to the job site, taking the work out of getting to work.

The C50T comes equipped with saddlebags, a height-adjustable windshield, a broad, low saddle with a pivoting passenger backrest and stylish whitewall tires.

Cast in the same mold as its larger Boulevard siblings, the C50 borrows not only its classic cruiser lines, fat fenders and tall-sidewall tires from those bigger bikes, but also comes equipped with Suzuki’s Dual Throttle Valve electronic fuel-injection system. The latter helps provide easier starting, improved mileage and smoother throttle response, making this a truly modern retro middleweight. Also available: The Boulevard C50 Special Edition, detailed in two-tone black paint and rolling on cast aluminum wheels.

The M50 combines aggressive muscle-cruiser styling with the touch of Suzuki’s high-technology heritage. The 50-cubic-inch V-Twin engine is liquid-cooled and (as with all C-series Boulevards) features a GSX-R-derived advanced electronic fuel-injection system. Sportbike-style cast aluminum wheels, an inverted cartridge fork and a large-diameter front-brake rotor all work just as good as they look. Also available: The Boulevard M50 Special Edition, which comes in a two-time paint scheme for another $200.

Here’s a mid-sized cruiser with big soul. The Boulevard S50 boasts polished-spoke wheels, an abundance of chrome, a stunning paint job and a color-matched frame for a cohesive custom look. Enhancing this cruiser’s clean, low-slung lines are a fiat-style handlebar and a comfortable one-piece saddle. A liquid-cooled, V-Twin engine with four valves per cylinder and a low-maintenance shaft-drive system deliver the rumble to the road.

Here’s a sportbike that combines the compact size and agile handling of a 600 with the top-end performance of a literbike. No wonder the GSX-R750 won CW’s Best Superbike award in 2006. It has received significant upgrades since then, including the same S-DMS engine-management system used on the GSX-R1000, allowing the rider to choose from three power settings via a handlebar switch. The Dual Throttle Valve fuel-injection system uses two 8-hole, fine-spray injectors per cylinder for better fuel atomization. An electronically controlled steering damper, lighter-than-ever wheels and fresh, up-to-date styling keep the Gixxer at the forefront.

As attractive entry-level sportbikes go, the GSX650F delivers in spades, offering versatility and GSX-R-inspired styling in an affordable package. The liquid-cooled, 16-valve engine is based on that of earlier GSX-Rs, but retimed for strong, easily accessible power and torque, along with Suzuki’s Dual Throttle Valve fuel-injection system for smooth acceleration. While the GSX650F caters to riders new to the sportbike category, it also is a machine possessing performance and handling that its owners will not quickly outgrow.

This classic-looking Single offers beginners and budget-minded buyers plenty of style and chrome at a price to cruise home about. The S40 has a low saddle and a thoughtful handlebar bend that are aimed at increasing rider comfort, confidence and control. Easy upkeep is a strong attribute of the S40’s air-cooled, four-stroke, sohc, single-cylinder, electric-start engine. Power channels through a five-speed gearbox and a low-maintenance belt drive. Light and low, the S40 is a great stepping-stone for beginning riders.

This middleweight adventure-touring bike offers proof of just how versatile the venerable SV650 V-Twin engine truly is. Additional crankshaft inertia and altered cam timing allow the V-Strom to strum a torquier beat deep into the lower reaches of the rev range. Its agile chassis and roomy ergonomic layout are faithfully patterned after the V-Strom 1000’s, giving the smaller ‘Strom the sort of comfort range you would normally only get with a liter-class machine. Also available: the V-Strom 650 ABS, which is an identical model except for being equipped with anti-lock brakes.
