Boss Hoss at Custom Car Show
January 26th 2008 08:02
Now then, how many of you clicked on here, thinking about the guy from The Dukes of Hazzard? Sorry to disappoint you but this is about the Boss Hoss motorcycle.
These amazing and totally huge machines where at the show and I just had to give them a feature!
The BOSS HOSS is an American made motorcycle powered by a small block Chevy 350 V8 engine. This high performance, well engineered motorcycle has a total weight of 1100 lbs. A balanced, low center of gravity design makes the Boss Hoss a dream to ride whether cruising around town or touring the country. (net sourced)
2 Speed Automatic Transmission with reverse
The BOSS HOSS has a specifically designed two speed automatic transmission shifted manually from a standard motorcycle style shifter. Just push down on the shifter to engage the transmission from neutral to first, then at the desired rpm and speed push it down again for second. In second the engine will turn a pleasant 2300 rpm at 70 mph which generates 30 miles per gallon and a range of more than 300 miles. Reverse is engaged from neutral position by pushing down on the rear shifter and simultaneously holing a button in, located on the left handle bar just below the left turn signal switch. Reverse is powered by the engine and is specifically designed to engage smoothly and be very controllable for a rider friendly feature.
This smooth stability was acheived from four patented designs:
Low Center of Gravity
Power & Weight = Traction
Specially Designed Frame and Drive System
Carefully Completed Weight Distribution
