Did anyone catch how he, Kneivel, spelled Nitrous Oxide? He seems to think it's spelled Nitris Oxide, unless thats some name of a company like NOS.

Thats $39,000 hes not going to make. 10k is all I would ever spend on a used dirt bike if it was ricky carmichels or something. The nitrous stuff is cool though.

Hey, a plastic seat! He needs to work on his lever position.

I was just waiting for something to pop up that said it was never wrecked.

I don't remember Evil having all his sponsors names on the side of his bike.
For 39 Grand he couldn't even replace the rear fender?

I just love it when "celebs" try to cash in on their name (or the lack of). I see it as major arrogance when a person charges huge sums of money just because their sweaty, smelly, fat (_!_) was on it. The fact that the bike is on ebay now leads me to believe that people aren't beating down the door of that dealership trying to get their hands on it. But I guess Robbie needs to make money like the rest of us. I can't imagine that his has-been, never-been, living-off-my-daddy's-name career is paying too well these days.

Lever is spun from crash after Canyon jump.
OK - the guy is a "goob", but she has some stones for the jumps he has pulled.

The guy is definitely a goob. I think I have a better jumping style than he does. The current frestylers could jump just as far and throw out a few tricks while doing it. I remember reading an interview with Mike Metzger and he was asked about his thoughts on Robbies Grand Canyon jump. Metzger said he thought about loading up his bike in his truck, driving out there, and poaching his fat a$$. :laugh:

I remeber him jumping from hotel roof to hotel roof in Las Vegas, that was cool and the grand canyon jump was pretty cool too.

It is hard to fault him look at his father, talk about a loser, did he ever land a jump?

I gotta disagree. Evel ain't a loser. He's an American Hero. Read the book by Ace Collins. ;) Also, even if Robbie isn't the most stylish jumper, it takes big ones to clear those gaps.

How can you talk about Evel like that??? That blasphamy! Evel had the biggest nuts to even think of trying those jumps on that load of a Harley.

When you have the nads to try any single jump that one of these guys have then by all means call them what you want.

I think i agree with pantera, Evil Sr. is worthey, jumping on a Harley? THat takes some. But I don't know if robbie deserves what some of you are giving. I saw a post on a record jump of 247 or somthing. I think theres plenty of people who could out jump robbie, and not make a production of it. But that just my opinion.

Ah, but the trick *IS* to make a production out of it!
