One notable motorcycle brand that has made its mark on the sector is that of Boss Hoss Cycles Inc. The American bikemaker was founded in 1990 in Dyersburg, Tennessee, by Monte Warne, an aviation and power plant technician, and commercial air pilot. Notably, Warne was the first to draw up a V-8 powered bike with a traditional cruiser appearance, style, and feel.

While Boss Hoss is not the biggest bike brand out there, it is most certainly more than note-worthy. In an industry dominated by heavy-hitters like Harley-Davidson and Yamaha, smaller brands have an important place, and for some bike enthusiasts, these brands are preferable. This could be due to smaller brands putting more "heart" into their designs or otherwise seeming that bit more down to Earth.

Boss Hoss bikes are popular custom motorcycles that come fitted with eight-cylinder Chevy Corvette engines. From modest beginnings at a 5,000 sq foot shop, Boss Hoss now manufactures their bikes in a 22,000 sq foot facility, with the producer still based in Dyersburg.

To give you a clear picture of what it means to ride a Boss Hoss, here's what we think is the coolest motorcycle offered by the brand; the Gangsta Trike.

How much are you willing to pay for a custom-made three-wheeled V8 beast? If your answer is anything less than $50,000, then, unfortunately, you're pretty far off, if not way off. The 2020 Boss Hoss Gangsta Trike has a steep starting price of $69,000, according to the company's website.

Its price makes this ride one of the most expensive Boss Hoss motorcycles on the market. If you want extra custom additions for your bike, then you're looking at a price tag that could surpass $100,000. But at the end of the day, this might not feel like too much for a true bike enthusiast.

Boss Hoss bikes are not merely just motorcycles; they also represent a culture and lifestyle. There are plenty of additional bikes worth checking out on the Boss Hoss website, such as the 2007 Boss Hoss ZZ4 Super Sport and the 2018 Boss Hoss BHC-3 383 Stroker. But, the Gangsta Trike certainly takes the cake.
