Newbe says "HI"

Post by **knockdolian** » Thu Nov 19, 2015 12:00 pm

Newbe from Somerset UK.
Hi all, Just joined the forum. On Sunday im off to buy my first Boss Hoss trike. Im so excited I could poo.
I road one when I went to Daytona bike week in 09 but never thought I could afford one. Anyway to cut a long story short one has turned up for sale about 100 miles away so im having it subject to a viewing. its a 96, 32 coupe. I know all about them not building them then but its as good as I believe with full history and only 17.5 k on the clock. At £21K its expensive for anything 20 years old but they just don't come up for sale that often. Any pointers/ advice will be greatly appreciated. Other than that, watch this space.
Cheers
Paul

Welcome Paul! You will find a lot of good info here to help with any questions you might have on this trike or any others you are interested in. Do you have any pics?

Hi Paul ,Welcome to the forum!! Tom

Thanks all for the warm welcome. No longer a potential owner. Ive bought it !! I would have loved to go over to Germany and buy a later one but ill be perfectly frank I cant relay afford this one so to find a bit more would have cancelled next Christmas as well !!
The trike is very clean and tidy on top with a stunning paint job. Picture doesn't show it too well. Under neath is clean with some surface rust to the sump and exhaust. Nothing a wire brush wont sort. All the paperwork from new including all MOTs showing genuine 17500 miles. Its being delivered next weekend so stand by for a load of sill questions !! I have one question all ready regarding tow hitch but ill post in the appropriate section
Thanks again
Paul

Looks and sounds very nice Paul, Congrats!

Thanks again to all and to whoever added the video. Im wanting information on how/ where to fit a tow hitch. So far no joy. Has nobody got a tow hitch. Just need to see where its mounted and how its fabricated. Otherwise Ill have to make it up. Also any advice on the max tow weight please
