Tim Dalbec was a mechanic in the mid 70's at
a motorcycle shop north of the Twin Cities. With his desire for
speed, he slowly acquired multiple machines with which he would be able
to do performance work "after hours" in his garage. Like many
others, he enjoyed drag racing and was the first in Minnesota to break
into the 9 seconds in a quarter mile at speeds of 150+ MPH on a
motorcycle. In the winter he would switch to racing snowmobiles
and set 22 NSSR records in
Minnesota; some of which are still standing today. In April of
1985, he opened a small performance shop in Forest Lake, MN. In
September of 1986, he opened Forest Lake Motor Sports. After many
years of running this family business of selling and servicing boats,
pontoons, PWC's, snowmobiles, ATV's, etc; he is back at what he
enjoys.......being in the back room creating many custom pieces.
Now these custom pieces are for the Boss Hoss bikes, which he loves.
His dedication to perfection is apparent in the trophies his custom Boss
Hoss bikes have earned. Also in the back room is Tom Zeller or
"Tommy Turbo" and Benny who are enthusiastic about each new idea. If you have
a Boss Hoss bike and would like any information on the products we sell
or the services we provide, give Tim Dalbec or Blake Dalbec
a call. Boss Hoss Concepts/Forest Lake Motor Sports 1-800-315-3135

Ben Meir
graduated from the
University of Wisconsin LaCrosse
with a Bachelor’s Degree in Theatre Technology with the intent to
pursue special effects in film.
After graduating, Ben’s longtime interest in
Hot Rods
and Motorcycles took priority and he moved to
Wyoming
to attend WyoTech. There he learned a variety of fabrication
techniques—from chassis fabrication to
sheet metal
forming, shaping and
TIG welding.
Since 2007, Ben has performed most of the
metal fabrication
at Boss Hoss Concepts and has learned a lot in his short career.
Ben says ‘the customer’s reaction to their new bike’ is the most
rewarding part of the job.

Tommy Zeller
played with dirt bikes, street bikes and snowmobiles while growing
up. In the fall of 1980, he turbo-charged his Kawasaki. This led him
to meet Tim. Together they built numerous turbo Kawasaki
motorcycles. One of Tommy Turbo’s drag bikes ran 8.60’s at 165
m.p.h.
During the winter, Tom
helped build and then drove many speed run snowmobiles. In 1985 he
was the first person to break the 140 m.p.h. barrier on a
snowmobile-powered snowmobile. He continued to set records on snow
and win trophies on tar.
In 2002, Tommy started
helping Tim create the custom Boss Hoss motorcycles now known as
Boss Hoss Concepts bikes. He has had a hand in the creation of many
of the bikes that have been built. He does most of the cutting and
fitting of the fiberglass panels and body parts, and helping with
final assembly.
The only problem is,
Tom has a “real” job and can only work on the bikes on a part-time
basis. He looks forward to all the new projects that are planned
and going to all the rallies that they can attend.
