Overview

Introducing the 2012 Boss Hoss BHC-9 Coupe 445 Trike, a stunning fusion of raw power and unique design that stands out in the world of custom cruisers. With its eye-catching aesthetic and three-wheel configuration, this motorcycle caters to those who seek an exhilarating ride without compromising on stability. Boss Hoss has carved a niche in the market for producing motorcycles that are more akin to muscle cars on two (or in this case, three) wheels, and the BHC-9 Coupe is a testament to this philosophy, combining the thrill of high-performance biking with the comfort and security of a trike. At the heart of the BHC-9 Coupe lies a formidable 6.2-liter V8 engine, producing an astounding 445 horsepower and 549 Nm of torque at 4,750 RPM. This powertrain is not just about numbers; it translates to a thrilling acceleration that feels like a rocket launch. The four-stroke engine is equipped with a sophisticated fuel injection system and liquid cooling, ensuring optimal performance and reliability even during extended rides. Coupled with a shaft drive and a narrowed Ford 7.5-inch clutch, the power delivery is smooth and responsive, making every twist of the throttle an adrenaline-inducing experience. The adjustable suspension, featuring inverted forks at the front and dual coilover shocks at the rear, offers a plush ride while maintaining excellent handling characteristics, allowing riders to tackle curves and straights with confidence. The BHC-9 Coupe is packed with features that elevate the riding experience. With an impressive fuel capacity of 8.5 gallons, your journeys can be longer without frequent stops at the pump. The electric starter ensures that you're ready to hit the road at a moment's notice, while the adjustable seat height provides comfort tailored to your preference. Safety is paramount, and the dual 4-piston caliper front brakes combined with a single-disc rear brake ensure stopping power is as impressive as the acceleration. Additionally, with a one-year unlimited mileage warranty, Boss Hoss stands behind its creation, giving riders peace of mind as they embark on their adventures. **

Pros

  • Monster Power: The V8 engine delivers an exhilarating 445 HP, making it one of the most powerful trikes on the market.
  • Stability: The three-wheel design enhances stability and comfort, especially for those who may be new to riding.
  • Customization Options: With an optional LS300 engine providing 295 HP, riders can tailor their experience to their performance desires.

Cons

  • Weight: At 1,455 pounds, the BHC-9 Coupe may feel cumbersome compared to traditional two-wheeled motorcycles.
  • Fuel Economy: The thirst for fuel may be higher than that of smaller, less powerful bikes, potentially leading to more frequent fill-ups.
  • Niche Appeal: The unique design and power may not resonate with all motorcycle enthusiasts, limiting its market reach.
