Positioned in Boss Hoss's custom - cruiser motorcycle lineup, the 2012 Boss Hoss BHC-9 Coupe 445 Trike utilizes a 6200 cc (378.3 cu in) liquid-cooled v8, four-stroke layout.

With a specific output of 71.8 HP per liter, the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.
