...AND he did all his stunts on good 'ole American iron with 2.5 inches of suspension travel, no handling and 500+ lbs. kudos to him and Bubba Blackwell for taking his place. I think Evel's son is a chump jumping everything with a CR250 Chassis with a 500CC engine stuffed in it... 13" of front and rear travel and it probably weighs 250lbs max. Most common folk just see 2 wheels and think "OOH, motorcycle" , but there's a big GD difference in my opinion.... shouldn't even be in the same record book without 10 astericks next to them... /// rant off.
YEAH RIP to a good 'ole American hero.
I couldn't agree more. I even have the capability to jump a cr250 (not that far, but yall get the point)...AND he did all his stunts on good 'ole American iron with 2.5 inches of suspension travel, no handling and 500+ lbs. kudos to him and Bubba Blackwell for taking his place.
