Hello my name is Håkan I live in Sweden.
This is the second season on my homebuilt bike which is built on a Ford 302 -69.
I have used a bevelgear from a 4wd car fitted to the motor so the trans are in the same way as on a Harley,
it works very well. I have 3000km on it now.
Is it hard to find a used 2 gear aut trans which sits on Boss Hoss in the US?

Hog -
That bike is BAD ASS ... very nicely done! Post more pictures when you find some time!
As far as avail of two speed trans here assuming your talking about the Nesco unit BH uses - very few and far between. Is there a problem with the setup you are using now?

I'm guessing between the mechanical pump he's running, the fan and out of the heat from the engine it probably works
I'd be curious the size of the rad too?

Thanks for welcoming me.
Actually there is three small radiators.One on the side,one under the motor,and one the left front.All have fans.
I had to mount that one in the front but it was close I could have managed without it.
No there is no problem with my trans but it would be nice with an automatic gearbox and reverse though.

Very, very nice. I would like to see more. More details about the components that were used. What kind of car did the bevel box come from? What type of transmission? How did you actuate the clutch?
Don't keep us in suspense.
Do you have a blog or some sort of build record online??

Great build!
You just missed the 1st Scandinavian Boss Hoss Meeting in Annaboda Sweden.
We were 45 V8 bikes (Boss Hoss and V8 Chopper).
Annaboda is near Örebro.
