Default 2009 Boulevard Lineup?

Hey!
Has anyone heard any rumors of the 2009 Boulevard Lineup? Is anything being dropped/added/remodeled? I can't seem to find any info anyplace at all!
Cheers!

no changes other than the colors. suzuki has several new models for 2009, but none of them are cruisers.

According to Global Suzuki a lot of the Cruisers are being renamed from Boulevard to Intruder. But this might be in other areas other than the USA, not sure.

The limited has a different intake than our nm50's. Teardrop...

and

New dual spark plugs on each cylinder for better combustion and lower emissions.

Odd.

Odd.
Then I must have the Limited because I have four plugs and a tear drop intake.



I also have the embossed seat, it has the Boulevard logo on it. You can see it a little bit if you look close in this picture.



I don't think that's the difference. I'm guessing the Intruder M800 is sold overseas and the Boulevard M50 is sold here. The reason I think that? The metric system, 800cc is metric, 50cu.in. is US Standard... butI could be wrong. Anyone have any thoughts on this?

I could have sworn I saw that in the specs.... or was it four valves, or was it both? Now you got me second guessing. But either way, as far as I know, the two-tone paint and embossed seat make it a limited. Doesn't it?

Well you do have 4 valves per cyl., I did see the new 09's have 2 plugs per cyl., but was wondering if the 08's did. Suzuki didnt offer a M50 Limited in 08, they offered it in 07 M50 limited, and next year they call it the 09 M50 Special Edition...lol
In 08 they just sold them in 3 colors Black, Gry/Yel, Blk/Sil and called them M50, but charged $100.00 more for the 2 tone.

Interesting- when they brought the 2009s around a couple months ago on the display truck they told us the M90 would be a 2010, introduced in mid-year 2009 to replace the S83. But it lists the M90 as a 2009...remind me to %%%%% slap the guys at Suzuki when I see them again.

In 07 the M50 Limited was only $100 more, maybe because they left the tank emblems off....

On the suzuki sight, when you go to cruisers, when you click on a bike, a bike is pictured in the background for just a moment before it's quickly covered up with icons for the new bikes. But the bike isn't shown in the icons to pick from.

I did a print screen real quick and captured this pic of the bike. Is that an '04 Marauder 1600?
