    The two wheeler boss hoss' have a low center of gravity and ride very smooth. They really don't want to tip over and if it tips slowly over it will hit the crash bars and not go all the way over, on a normal circumstance. It does take a man and a big boy to upright it. Turning the bars the correct way and pushing ahead works well. They are expensive bikes, but very stable.

      A cam, wha- you mean they took apart the stock components full well knowing it has a chance to be more unreliable?
      It probably broke down because they were beating on it all day with a tiny radiator. These engines also didn't really like to Rev that high due to being a Pushrod V8.

    I used to build these from Kits at Atlanta Boss Hoss around 1995. They are very well built, well designed, and ZERO vibration. 0-60 around 3-4 seconds. Had great fun riding them. That one you have looks exactly like the one the Owner Kent Barnes had. That one wasn’t converted to chain, it had belt from factory. The previous model was chain drive. The vacuum boost usually has enough boost to pull the clutch once to start it so you don’t need to use the foot clutch or lock ever under normal conditions.

    In about 93 I was tig welding at a shop in grand prairie, tx. One day a regular customer named curtis who owned a Volkswagen shop, came into the shop. When he pulled up it sounded like a yacht coming in. He was on an early boss hoss. I did some exhaust welding for him, and when he left the shop he burned that tire for a quarter mile down the road. Curtis stood about 5'2" and had no fear. He became a regular dealer of the boss hoss and every new bike he built he would come into the shop. Every bike was better than the last. He would go to Tn. and pick up a kit, bring it back and build it. I remember one he put a 383 stroker on it. The brochure for these bikes at that time listed top speed as unknown. They first were 70k - 80k but that price kept going up and up.

    If you keep the clutch engaged while it’s not running it will make the pressure plate weak over time. I would go to the junkyard and get an electric vacuum pump, many gm vehicles have them and hook it up to that clutch master so I could leave the clutch disengaged when it’s off.

Since then I have made 2 V8 bikes , one 4speed and the second one an automatic three speed with reverse. What prompted me to contact you was all the stuff you had to go through just to start it. If you would like some more info I can send some pictures of mine and show you how a V8 bike should be made. Mine is called Chevy-Davidson and I live in St. Louis. Back in 1986 St.louis Post Dispatch wrote an article about mine and put a real nice picture in there with it, it was in the Sunday paper section called hot wheels. Hope to here from you soon.
