I ride a 2005 Suzuki C90T, purchased April 29, 2005.

Pros:
•  It's Japanese, so it runs well.
•  Fuel injection that can run on regular unleaded.
•  Smooth and comfortable.

Cons:
•  The 3.7 gallon tank is a joke on a 'touring' bike. I get 130 miles between fill-ups; my old CB750 had a 200-mile
range.
•  Saddle bags are small (like most) and Suzuki used cheap snaps.
•  It is impossible to add air to the rear tire unless you buy a 90 degree valve stem adapter (about $11). I consider this a product liability suit waiting to happen for Suzuki.

Repair Record:
•  One bag had to be replaced under warrantee because a snap broke.
•  The gas tank replaced under warrantee because paint bubbled for no apparent reason.
