The owner of the company, Monte, thought different. They challenged this fellow with a ZX-12R, then the second fastest production bike, to a race. The ZX-12R rider was no lightweight, pushing 300 lbs. Anyway, using whichever Boss Hoss model they had, from a standing start or a roll-on, the results were the same. The Boss Hoss lost. The Boss Hoss owner lied and got an article printed in Barnett's stating that the Boss Hoss had won. When Barnett's was shown the video of the runs with the Boss Hoss losing every time, Barnett's printed a retraction with the correct results.
