Not black and gold so it can't be the greatest team ever, what is that? A boss hoss? Are those things really a rideable motorcycle? I see em advertised in the trader but I always think, man riding to 16 hours on a trip on one of those might be a little uncomfortable. I have never seen one in person, lucky you, now you can answer the questions..

I knew I liked you for some reason...

I'm betting they'll need Derrick Brooks help if that ever falls over, though.

I have seen several BOSS HOSS and even got to work on one. An owner from Miami was in Sebring and had the alternator belt break. He came to my shop and I got it fixed and he went on his way.

If you ever get the chance you should ride one. They are really awesome to ride. Blip the throttle and feel the torque twist the bike sideways!!!
