Hello from Germany

[Lönn]

Hello to the Boss Hoss family.
I would like to shortly introduce myself. My Nami is Michael, I'm from Germany, Bavaria, Upper Franconia.
Since 2013 I drive Boss Hoss. I bought a black LS3 by handshake in Erfurt on the motorcycle fair, without ever having made a test drive.
After a year, I wanted to bring some color to the German BH scene, and let my bike paint green, very green even.
During the exits to the int.BH meeting in Pullman City / Harz, I always had to drive last, so that the blockers knew when the group is over.
But always the last to drive is shitty.
One day a blocker was missing and I took his place.
Since then, I'm a blocker at the exits in Pullman City, which is much more fun.
I've also won the 1/8 mile race twice, I'm twice German Campion, so to speak.
I also participated in all Scandinavian BH rallies.
I've already been to Sweden and Norway twice, and Finland is back on schedule next year.
Since in Germany the trend is for the second, or even third Boss Hoss, I've already bought a second boss Hoss, I think you know my new motorbike well, it's Ricki's Berzerker ......... .....
 Of course, next year I will be back in the 1/8 mile race in Pullman City, I want to defend my title.
So, enough for today.

Greetings Lönn

So you’re the cat that bought Berzerker, cool. What are you doing for an engine?
Berzerker is setup for a dry sump LS-7 engine, I had a custom 7.7 liter that is now installed into my race car.

hello Ricky
At first I thought of an LS2 engine.
An LS7 would be very attractive, I have already spoken with Franky Müller, if an LS 7 is possible.
So, i will see

Willkommen Lönn

So another famous bike is making it to Germany. Good luck with it; hope you are having fun.

I just saw the late Charlies big block bike (repainted) at the dragster races in Hockenheim (Germany) a few weeks ago.

So even since the people in Dyersburg are not producing bikes for Europe anymore, the older ones are still coming over.

Puff-Bill, if you keep these machines well maintained, they will last for a lifetime

A new LS7 7.0L will drop right in. Replace the stock cam with a hot cam and you’ll easily be at 600hp with a 7000rpm redline.
If you select a new hot cam that doesn’t exceed the stock lift specs, you’ll just need to replace the cam only; new cam from Comp Cams $600.
A new LS7 in the crate is $14k from Summit Racing.
There are several companies that offer high performance LS7 engines pushing well over 600hp.

Hi Lönn,

Welcome to the US Forum!
With your new BH you will shurely impress some of the US guys...

Hi Lönn,

Das Englander here, welcome to V8bikers. Do you count in your 2 x 1/8th mile victories beating me in 2016 at der Flugplatz? I got a good start but you whopped my ass good and proper. I blame my secondary jets being too rich. Last year at our return race I ended up running beside another guy and missed my chance.

It will be great to see Berzerker at PC (if I can get accommodation). Will you swop your green machine's Winters or has Berzerker got a Winters already?

Either way, looks like you'll be hard to beat at der Flugplatz in 2020.

Good to see you here, all the best to your family too.

Hello Gordon
Nice to hear from you.
my green BH has a Winters Gearbox, and the Berzerker also, thanks to Ricky.
If you need a accommodation in PC in 2020, let me know. Perhaps i can help to get it.
And yes, we must make a Race !!

See you in PC

The price of a new 7.0L LS7 has dropped from $14.5k to $10.9k. Buy this engine + order a custom cam from Comp Cams and you'll be over 600HP.

https://www.gmperformancemotor.com/parts/19329246.html

Comp Cams, call to order custom cam +1-800-999-0853.
Instruct the Comp Cams tech guy to not exceed stock lift .593 intake / .588 exhaust (inches), so that you will "Probably" just need a cam, should be able to use existing springs, etc; consult with Comp Cam tech guy to confirm.
it is easy to swap cams. Tell the guy that you want a top-end cam having a rough, choppy idle.
Understand that that "Hot Cam" is not going to meet emissions, but it will be bad-ass.

Other Options, but costs much more:

hi Ricky
Thank you for this great information.
I will see what is possible, so that the Berzerker comes back on the road with a proper engine.
