Had the opportunity last week to attend the Boss Hoss rally at Dyersburg, TN (although as my time in the US was limited and my bike played up - had to tinker with the 4-barrel carb that feeds the 8.2 liter V8 engine :-) and the weather was terrific, when I could I rode). There were some stunning bikes to be seen at the rally however - a few pix attached.

if you want your NOS right up front...
if you want to carry lots of luggage...
if your bike breaks down, the ultimate recovery vehicle....
a bike with a different kind of saddle...
and the World's Biggest-Engined Indian?

1300 lbs dry weight does not like to turn quickly that is true - but they are extremely comfortable to ride. Very low CofG and a 27" seat height, plus 1st gear being good up to about 90 mph (and the 2nd of the 2 gears in the auto transmission being good for 166 mph :-) don't ask me how I know that) means that long-distance highway cruising is pretty effortless.

Hmmmm, those big fat bastards look all right (the bikes, not the americans). Some really cool looking artworks and worked engines. Nice pics RDJ.
