Welcome to the Worldwide V8 Bikers Forum

Hi to all,
as the title suggest I'm now at a time in life where I need to get a Boss Hoss so I've decided to trade in my original 2004 Rocket 3 and get the beast of all beasts
The deal isn't done yet but I'll be doing a serious hunt around the UK in a month or so.
I'm keeping my new Triumph Trophy SE as that's a good bike for European touring but the Hoss will be purely for sheer grunt & fun around the UK.
I hope to strike a deal soon and will post pics when the dirty deed is done

Good luck brother!

Hi RocketSteve!!! Welcome to this Forum - lots of good info and even better banter at times

Enjoy and keep us posted on your mid life crisis ride - pics please

Hi RocketSteve,

Welcome to the mad world that is Boss Hoss. The very best thing to solve a mid-life crisis. Had mine 3 years now and loved every minute. A totally unique and adrenalin surging toy.

Great to see another Hosser in the UK on the road I've only seen 1 other in 10 years! but know a couple of cool V8 chopper guys.

If you need any advice I'm happy to supply and any help you need regarding maintenenance I'm only an email away.

Also we aren't that far apart we'll need to meet up in 2017.

Welcome Steve. You won't regret it. I too had a Rocket which I loved, but nothing like my 502 Hoss. Best of luck.

Thank you for the welcome folks, I hope to be an active member here and can't wait to get the big bruiser
I'll need some helpful guidance Gordon ~ if possible as the last BH I noticed was on a French Autoroute hard shoulder [other carriageway] many years ago and did worry me at the time... Might have see one at Poole Bike night but that was a while ago too.
Any good hint & tips to help with the search will be really welcome, can you advise which UK dealer to start the search with...?
When I've found my way round the Forum I'll probably start PM'ing you
Happy Days

Welcome.

Good luck on your search.

To the best of my knowledge, there are no dealers in the UK. There are 2 in Germany.

One on the West coast ( Banner on Top Right of this page )

and the other in Bavaria.

Spot on Dennis!

The UK Hossers do it themselves, so to speak.

There is a UK BossHoss site that looks intitially like a distributor but it has been inactive for some years.

Denmark does see to have the biggest stock.

Welcome Bro,,,its the perfect answer to the Mid life ich
DONT buy the cheapest you can find unless it checks out as repairs can be head scratching.Once you have experienced a V8 ride it sets Bar
help is here ,keep us posted
Ventury

Thanks for the heads-up Petitemoose & Ventury.
Gordon has kindly offered to help me get the dream bike and I'll be following his guidance - to the letter!
Looks like it's going to be an import from USA or Canada and hope to get 2008 model or thereabouts.
All I need is for the bike to be checked out by someone recommended who's familiar with BH SB across the pond...
Ideally I'd like as close to stock/standard as possible but I imagine finding hens teeth would be easier, Ha!
Ever onwards & upwards

Hi Steve,

Take all the guys' experience and distil it, I learnt all I know from Ventury after all.

When you find a potential bike .. Post up here. Chances are the history of the bike will be known and if not, Somebody will be close by to take a look at it for you.

Welcome, Steve!
When you find one in the U.S. that you might
be interested in, chances are that there will be
some of us close enough to help you by taking
a look at it.
Happy hunting! Good luck! Keep us posted.

Congrats!

There are some Logistics hurdles for the deal to go through...fingers crossed.

Getting these Monsters is NEVER easy. Just kinda goes with the territory I guess. Luckily, this isn't your first "Rodeo"

I know Barry can get over those lgistical hurdles. I look forward to seeing Big Blue in the UK this summer.

Good luck with that steve. We will have to meet up in the summer and take a ride up to Johns in Bath unless the fuel price Carey's on going up !!
Gordon you have a PM .

Hi mate,

Sorry, didn't get any notification that I had a new email. I'll pm you.

Look forward to that Paul...

As Gordon says, good things come to those who wait

Gordon,

Proving challenging for the shipping..harder than last time when Campbell from Scotland bought a bike from us...
