Test ride a heap of bikes and then make your call. Bikes are a very individual choice and You'll be the one that has to live with it.

There's no choice - while the Boulevard is a good bike, buy the T Bird; it's a Triumph.

The T-Bird is sooooooo much better in every facet it's ridiculous!
Rode both recently, the c90 is (in my opinion) far better finished,looks better and also its a vee twin....no contest!

I'm biased as I already have a Tbird & love it. I can't comment on the Suzi as I've never ridden one. I didn't like the looks, so never considered it.
Alot to consider though. How much you got to spend? You'll need another grand or so to get the sissy & touring back seat on the Tbird (about a third less if you import from the US).
