Welcome to the Worldwide V8 Bikers Forum

Beautiful Ricky !!

I can't help it laugh when I se bikes on trailers and trucks tied down leaning on their kickstands . That's just asking for trouble .

I used to live in Camillus NY several years ago , Now live in North Fort Myers FL . Own a 1996 Roadking and a Boss Hoss . Could ride either one anytime but the BOSS Hoss always wins , amazing
ride.

Well you guys use what you want but I'm sticking with Royal Purple 10w - 30 . I use 50W oil in my Harleys .

GM recommends to use 5w30 or 10w30 . That all I've ever used in my ZZ4 engine . I don't understand why a lot of ZZ4 owners don't use what GM recommends?

I don't really need a dealer because I do all my own work but is Mike Kelly still an active Boss Hoss dealer/repair shop ? I'm moving to North Fort Meyers FL. area and am just curious . I know Marko Island is not far from where I'll be living

As far as Boss Hoss bikes go the lowest Et that I've heard for a 1/8 th of a mile is 5.90 set by Mike Kelly of Summit Boss Hoss , Marko Island Florida.

Hey Jack, Any pics from behind the bars? Do you recall the rise and pull back on them? Thanks for the suggestion Paul, I’ll start searching. I don't have any pictures taken from behind the bike but I do have some good side views . I know the are 10" high , I and I think 6" pullback . I kn...

After the accident, my ape hangers are bent, and the risers stripped. So, I'm thinking this may be the opportunity to get behind something else... It's a V8 bike, it's wide, but it's fairly short. The tank is low and I have a fairly long torso. The bars on it are just about shoulder height. A biker...

Ebay has all kinds of Harley hydralic clutch master cylinders or complete aftermarket handlebar controls.

Thanks chaps. I plugged the port but the problem remains. can anyone recommend a carb rebuild kit. They all seem to be in the US and I’d like a good one. They range from $27-$80 and expensive doesn’t always mean best. Thanks again I was told by Carb Mike to ask for a carb rebuild kit for a 1973 Che...

This company has the rubber caps you need mcmastercarr.com

Wow ! You have definitely got to address those problems!

...on my ZZ4 from 2007......Driven in 6 Years and with still the first Transmission (...not from Winters......)!!! I'm still on my original 2 speed Nesco going on 90,000 miles without a single problem except for a broken shifter shaft spring . I have done a few modifications that I could do without...

A couple of years .

I add a whole bottle of Seafoam to a full tank of gas about every 4th fill up . I feel it keeps everything clean .Great stuff

Fender mounts to adapt just about any fender to the Boss Hoss forks are very simple to fabricate then just paint them the same color as the fender . No big deal .

For sure !

I think I'm the only one in Oswego County NY that owns a Boss Hoss . Most think it's cool except 99 percent of the Harley riders . Fuck them , I've spent more time changing oil on Harleys than most of them have spent riding Harleys . Even some of my old timer Harley rider bros can't understand why b...

Yes , Dan's parts are great and very reasonable .

Hi Ricky , I've found several unique clamps made for dune buggies . Do a search for billet buggy parts or clamps . Good luck

I like stainless bolts also and use them everywhere I don't need strength . Stainless isn't as strong as steel .

I have the GM Hot Cam , 1.6 roller rockers and a Edelbrock with the stage ll mod and the FR's are what Adrian recommended to me when I asked him about 15 years ago and I've been running them ever since with great results . Now maybe your stock engine with fuel injection runs better with the MR's .My...

Is this the new number that replaces the ac delco FR5LS? I think I was told this a NAPA a couple of months age when I tried to purchase the FR5LS plugs .

I'd also check the connections on the starter itself , could be loose or corroded.
