Re: Chopper Pictures

Hahaha Els don't let my little fat buddy King Piss get you going!! This is the same guy that locked my friend L ennu in the hotel room for slobbering a little bit on his shirt at Pullman City. On that subject I should tell you the new shirts are made of a material that makes a couple slobbers look ...

Re: Chopper Pictures

My posts are about the way it is, not personal preference or flavor. The 502 GM crate motor does not live up to it's advertised hp claims. The stock DART motors in the V8Chopper bikes and trikes are faster than the stock 502 in the Boss bike or trike. No name calling, just what the slips at the trac...

Re: Chopper Pictures

Ron, I take it 100% as a compliment and I'm flattered you liked it. That color along with all the chrome is a thing of beauty. There's something us old hotrod guys from the 60's really like about deep candy colors and metalflake. Yes, a couple of beers it is! I came to a few conclusions about the ti...

Re: This is to Els

Jack, just about any BH rider has experienced the same. I had it happen a few times and once at a downtown bike night I got so pissed I really mouthed off to the guy and insulted his sister (if he had one). That smart ass said the same thing about it not being a bike, I mouthed off to him, he then s...

Re: Sabertooth and .com site

Well, the man had only a temporary licence plate. As we know from Boss Hoss Cologne it is a long (more then a year) procedure to apply for the ec-papers and documents. And VERY expensive too. Since there is no catalytic (?) converter on that bike, there is no way to get it licenced in Germany (New ...

Re: who wants to talk about energy?

Rob, Very cool setup. Terrain looks very similar to the environment I live in. The difference is lattitude of course, my 4,000' elevation, and very brutal winters. I've thought about wind in addition to solar. There are a number of options with personal wind turbines that look quite interesting. The...

Vrrmm, I'm guessing you wrote your post in response to Sabertooth owner "Grinch" posting how much he liked his bike and that it was "lighter, less top heavy, and a better ride than a Boss Hoss." You didn't reference this in your post I'm just assuming. I answered him with my 2 ce...

JR, No problem getting .410 deer slugs. Where I live that's standard issue in every hardware story, Walmart, etc. It's actually a toss up as to whether to use a .410 slug or a .45LC in either the Judge or Texas Defender. In talking to a ammo guy at the gun show he said ballistically there wasn't muc...

Clint, I'll definitely take a look at the Challenger with the floats. Have you seen the flying inflatables I was talking about? In the neighborhood of $25k last I checked depending on model. I occasionally see one buzzing around here and am really taken with the concept. Not a real "get around...

Phil, I often miss my Twin Comanche. Had it configured for 4, fuel burn about 16 gph and around 160 kts. What a great little bird. The IO 360's were great then and with today's spiraling fuel costs, necessary to make any non biz flight affordable. I felt I just had to have radar in the nose and did ...

Serious EAA advocate and built and flew his last ultraliight from Indiana (I believe?) to Lakeland before dropping from the V8 scene about 5-6 years ago. He may have then t...
