Boss Hoss bikes and trikes are noted not only for their power and size, but for their strikingly minimal vibration, especially when compared to that of [[V-twin]] or [[single cylinder]] motorcycles. The dampening effect of the unusually great mass and relatively high number of engine cylinders combine with the very tall gears of the semi-automatic transmission to provide what is often described as "vibration free acceleration". This has led some dealers and riders to affectionately describe the Boss Hoss as a "big [[scooter]]". | Boss Hoss bikes and trikes are noted not only for their power and size, but for their strikingly minimal vibration, especially when compared to that of [[V-twin]] or [[single cylinder]] motorcycles.

The bikes were difficult to ride, and were largely considered an expensive novelty. Since they were fitting a high-end automotive motor onto a motorcycle frame, they found themselves stuck between using parts from the Harley Davidson aftermarket and the muscle car aftermarket.
