When is a Suzuki Boulevard C90 regulator bad?
If the battery was good under load test, if the stator is NOT shorted to ground, and the stator is putting out A/C voltage, then the regulator is bad (most likely even if passed step 2) For more information about your question and valuable “FREE” downloads that you will need for viewing or printing please click on the blue links below.
What causes the stator on a Suzuki C90T to short out?
From what I gather part of the issue is possibly R/R overheating which at some point causes the stator to overheat, melting the insulation and shorting out. Possible fix is to relocate the R/R to the front of the battery box thus allowing it to be cooled more efficiently.
What kind of battery does Suzuki C90 Boulevard have?
The first time the console would flash on and off with the speedometer swinging wildly. The second time the battery read 12.75 volts with the ignition off and would drop significantly in the on position and then return to 12.75 volts when returned to the off position. The battery appeared totally normal on and off a charger.
What causes compression lock on Suzuki Boulevard C90?
Here’s what happens and what to do when it happens. You turn off the engine after riding on a hot day, the engine heat builds even higher for several minutes, this is called hot soak. Now if one of those big pistons stopped moving at just the right position, close to top dead center, this causes compression lock.

Are there any problems with the Suzuki C90?
The stator is a common problem for basically ALL model C90. They seem to only last 15,000 miles or so. Suzuki has ‘redesigned’ them several times, but the results are still the same.
Why does my Suzuki C90 not have a rectifier?
The charge to the battery was around 12.5v at 5,000 rpm and 11.7v at idle, so I began to tear her down. I inspected the wiring to the stator and suspected that because the stator and battery were still fairly new, the regulator/rectifier might be the culprit.
