Anybody ever here of the BossHoss. A K. Ninja 1200 cc doesn't really scare me, but this bike looks like it would kick my ass.

BossHoss

That's right, a 502 hp - 567 tq, liquid cooled 502 ci. on a cruiser. AWESOME

My dad saw one in springfield and thought it looked pretty sharp, so called and told me to look it up. So now, i bring it to you.

edit: Look around at some of there other production bikes too.

Sorry that I haven't been impressed and said all kinds of cool stuff. My dad was looking into buying one of these for awile. I think it's neat how they set up the tranny. That seems like the most difficult thing to me. They make the 350 and 454 BossHoss don't they? And from your post, I take it that they use a 502. I'd like to see a nice high wind Ford 289 in one, or 302. It would be hell on wheels with a Chevy Yanko 302.

i have seen a v8 bike

those things are massive, at 1300lbs(~1550 with driver and fluids), they come close to rivaling the weight of a stripped down CRX

There's a bunch of 302 powered 68-69 Camaros on ebay. I thought they were the Yenko (spelling corrected) motors. I know they put the 427 in a bunch of things. Well, maybe just Nova, Camaro, and Corrvette. I'm not sure on the Yenko though, I'll look it up.

yea, but those were the girl camaros, not the yenko. I am fairly sure the Yenko was a 427. The SS was a 396 and the race ready Z28 was a 327.

The 302 was used as the race engine for the 305 or under racing class. They put it in the Camaro's. I know this engine wasn't a girly engine. Any engine biult sepecificly for racing couldn't have been that girlly. A buddy of mine was trying to biuld one of these because he said it was extreemly high winding, and very powerful. He already had a biult 305 in his car.

There were some 350 powered Yenko's, also there were 164ci Yenko's, but most of the Yenko's were 427 powered. The 502 on that bike is just a Chevy crate motor, you can get them at Pace Parts but on a bike it's just crazy, if that thing land on you in a wreck it's over.

I don't really think the boss hoss bikes are about going fast, I think they're about guys who want to say "I've got a small block or big block in my bike." They aren't practical, and I can't see how they could be that fast and controllable. If you want a fast cruiser, get a 1450cc harley and get a supercharger kit for it. Otherwise, stick to sport bikes. But I guess there's a big market out there for guys who want bragging rights with no actual pratical aplications. I could, as always, be wrong though.
