She loves anything with a motor. She actually got me into going to drag races after we met.

That bike doesn't sound like any Indian I've ever heard. I kinda want one.

Those were the best!

 

[Ragnar406]

So is he using the same type cycles that Evel used on each ? I have to think technology has improved greatly since the original jumps

He's riding a new Indian Scout FTR 750 twin fitted with a mono shock.

I'm sure the bike is much better, but he also made the jumps a little longer than Evel's.

He certainty has that last one was great. I am on a little delay (DVr) but I did hear say the bike was a little lighter and a little more powerful but still comparable. 4” of travel the announcer said.

Yeah, two more buses and the buses are 5" wider and 5" taller each.

Good show, he was pretty humble in the after interview

 

[Deleted member 3748]

Yeah, I liked it too!
