Re: 10th Int. Boss Hoss meeting at Pullman City II / Germany

We will find a way to get you on tour in Europe.
The best would be to rent a car to make the long distance and (maybe) get a motorcycle for one or two days localy.
If you feel like visiting Switzerland on that trip you are highly welcome!

Re: Official, this site is theraputical

I'm back after my quadruple bypass (100%) blocked, now doing cardiac rehab and I rewarded myself by getting a new Hot rod chopper trike during Stans open house. We sold the Purple BH to my son Zach. We're going to take it to mountain to get some issues fixed this next week. Looking forward to a lot...

I use the rising blocks from Marv as well on the BB.
They lift the rear, not much, but it helps a lot!

Mark, Now that is what I'm talking about! Those look really good and flow well with the lines of the bike. It looks like they are a wider diameter than the 1.5 in? Do you know who makes them and who owns the bike? Like Mark said, it was built by Ernst Fried a Boss Hoss Dealer in southern Germany. T...

The idea seems to be OK.

But if you look close, it must be a fake.
In the front part you see some tools which are cut just befor the foam of the gun starts.
