A Boss Hoss motorcycle

Boss Hoss motorcycles' and tricycles' enormous mass has a vibration damping effect, which combined with having eight engine cylinders and the very tall gears of the semi-automatic transmission results in what has been described as "vibration-free acceleration", which some dealers and riders have compared to a "large moped".[3]
