Well, the Boss Hoss National Rally is here again this coming weekend. There will be LOTS of bikes here, not just Boss Hoss. It is also the Mid-South Motorcycle Festival. http://www.bosshosscountry.com/ A few of us were discussing these the other day, and I found a few photos of the one I was talking about. This guy is from Vermont, and owns his own machine shop. He and his wife both ride Boss Hoss trikes, but he stretched his out, and it now has two, yes two 502 engines in it. He said it makes 1050 HP. The guy does very nice work! http://thumb9.webshots.net/t/72/72/9/76/81/2472976810035120669xZhGdv_th.jpg http://thumb9.webshots.net/t/55/755/1/34/65/2838134650035120669lnetac_th.jpg http://thumb9.webshots.net/t/71/71/8/35/7/2916835070035120669JIAAhR_th.jpg
