@@perryanderson5642 love 2 strokes, just so much fun, rode my friends sons KX 80 for a laugh few years back, couldn't believe how quick it was, but he'd had so much stuff done to it.
@@CRAZYHORSE187 That's Awesome! I think I'm stuck in the 80s. I catch myself listening to DEF LEPPARD and Van Halen every day. By the way, a KX80 was the 1st 2-Stroke I ever rode. Good times.
Will you people get it right? It is Evel Knievel not Evil ...... And I'm sorry Evel was throwing a Harley Davidson on his jumps just a few hundred pounds more than these custom motocross bikes . hell they have over a foot of travel on the springs Evel had 4 or 5 inches of travel. Big difference
Yep, which is why he broke nearly every bone in his body. Even with today's technology, these athletes have balls bigger than Vegas. Yes also paid well for the risk & our entertainment..
Not withstanding what these guys do.... But Evel Knievel did all of his shit on a modified Harley XR750 and later an XL1000.... Just sayin'.... Can you say metal sled????
Beanie Oakley, Evel was a stick figure in flight. Painful to watch. He never figured out how to control the bike in the air, and he broke his entire body because of it. He was an insane alcoholic with a whiskey throttle approach to bike jumping.
Would never happen. You’d have to flip so slow that it’d stop rotating and spotting your landing if you did somehow rotate it perfectly would be very difficult at that speed... just don’t think it’s feasible. I got flips dialed and I’d never try one past the 120ft freestyle ramp. Think the longest is at FITZLAND that Twitch did on the 160ft dirt hit over a step up.
Modern guys jump and land without drama. You watched Evel Kievel because you just knew he’d probably fall off and he did...regularly. I saw him fall off at Wembley Stadium way back in 1975, I think.
Geez his wife or whoever the blond woman is always looking like she wants to be interviewed. lol but no one wants to talk to her. If she ever does something amazing like fly over 300 feet on a bike, people will want to talk to her too.
That's apples to oranges, Evel was not getting even close to that distance. Evel was the pioneer the man the legend but you can't take away what these guys are doing now on these bikes.
I know when but looking at this footage you would think Robbie done this jump in the 80's.............................The quality is unbearable, better cam footage from space than this.
Ooh! Stop protecting Evel!! He was a daredevil and a showman.. Hes done..gone..dusted in an era of shit motorbikes and even shittier safety standards. As the same man today hed be Laughed at. He capitilised on something very few were doing and thats that. The guy was a fucking piss drunk at a bar who took himself way too seriously.
There is nothing like riding YZ's, CR's, KX's you name it, I grew up as a kid started with a YZ80 back in 87, I miss those days so much
Still miss my Rm 80
@@TheNash420 guy igo
Same Here Crazy Horse, I miss those days too! Recently bought a Vintage 1990 Kawasaki KX250. It makes you feel Forever Young riding it.

You're an Inspiration Robbie Maddison. Flat Out Fun Watching you! GOD BLESS You and your Family.
Evel's hogs where highly modified for jumping. This kid is next level no matter what bike he's riding or jumping. This kid is now number 1.
Even highly modified there were still better (and lighter) motorcycles he could have gone with.
Evil started it all period.
Yeah. It's a lot easier when your landing ramp is the size of a f**king PARKING LOT! He isn't in Evels class.
True
Evel will always remain #1...
Matter of opinion!
Darren Laws Doug Danger!!
Dood. robbie is number #1 now
One thing I’ve learned is you never say “one more time” no matter how dialed in you are... that’s when shit always goes bad.
He was my idol many years ago. If he had a bike with modern suspension he would have never crashed, always had the height vand distance
Um? he didn't crash. He landed it.
i like your cover version. Love it !
Jump starts at 3:00.
Man what a jump great job

Im glad, the jump and landing was successfull
this guy has huge balls in everything he does
This guy can ride God bless bro
Nice control of the bike..
240p quality. Sweet.
he's always so happy to see his wife after a jump............
I want so badly to give his girlfriend a hug for crying out loud. Poor girl. Whew.!!!!!
This record was overtaken by Alex harvill 425 feet, because guiness world record was officially recognised in 2021
I remember when Robbie Kanevel did this years ago
Amazing
And he just passes by his wife as she rushes out to greet him.
I used to do that on my old step though 😁
Maddos an animal love it
Whats also amazing is the height he achieved. Old school ramps were flat like a triangle, his ramps were curved and had alot of kick.
UnFucking Believable 😵🦾👽🏁💥
made it look easy
I'd like to see him do it on a heavy XR750 with 6" of suspension travel.
people have been saying that since evel knievel. always want more
gee what a guy
I’ll never forget from the bar and women friends that watched with me .
So where was the second jump....
3:00 first jump, 7:13 second jump 😅😅😅😅
CR500R RULES!
1986 Honda cr 500 I miss it😌
KX500 is the King of Motorcycles.
2-Strokes.... arrh i luv um
Now do it on a Harley .
Evils jumped Harleys which back then were real heavy and he didn't have any of the tools available today or even 15 20 years ago.
Not withstanding what these guys do.... But Evel Knievel did all of his shit on a modified Harley XR750 and later an XL1000.... Just sayin'.... Can you say metal sled????
A Metal Death Sled'/!!!

@@yzmoto80 Robbie knievel had the same problem, how he left the ramp is how he landed no bike control at all in the air
Please take in to consedaraion never have dead end at the end of the jump just incase the brakes don't work ?
Maybe mr Madison should do it on a Hog like Evel
maybe he likes being alive
They aren't good enough or brave enough.
Maybe he wouldn’t want to be a crash test dummy
I know why he made it.... TWO SMOKE😂😂😂😂
John Ayers uncle Mac would of did that 6 or 9 times better
"Robbie, what do you think?"
"I'll take it"
then
"I'm going again"
Could you imagine if he did it while doing a back flip?
Would never happen. You’d have to flip so slow that it’d stop rotating and spotting your landing if you did somehow rotate it perfectly would be very difficult at that speed... just don’t think it’s feasible. I got flips dialed and I’d never try one past the 120ft freestyle ramp. Think the longest is at FITZLAND that Twitch did on the 160ft dirt hit over a step up.
Damn! eh, gonna go again. He probably jumped it again when everybody went home for kicks.
Makin' it look easy
Well, to be fair Evel landed on a very narrow ramp. Not a huge dirt mound that was very forgiving.
Yes JM so true thank you for stating that
@@kennethlippertshauser3376 This is not even in the same ballpark as what Evel did!
Every time Evel jumped a damn bus would pop up from nowhere and he'd crash into it!
Everyone was on bus lookout here. LoL
What
Yo

Madison is just fckn mad.
But look at the head start these new gens get. Look at evels. Evel hardly got that big a head start
That's apples to oranges, Evel was not getting even close to that distance. Evel was the pioneer the man the legend but you can't take away what these guys are doing now on these bikes.
Also smaller jumps in reality aswell.
Evil would never make this looks so easy
Stanley Silva yes specially when he jumped big old heavy Harley-Davidson Sportsters
Except it was an XR-750 Flat tracker heaver than a sportster
50 broken bones later...
Evel hardly landed on his wheels
His bikes where too bloody heavy no suspension made himself a legend for crashing no direspect to him or any other i also know the score
Spelt Maddison
I know when but looking at this footage you would think Robbie done this jump in the 80's.............................The quality is unbearable, better cam footage from space than this.
Robbie is great rider but evil and his son are lengends but he can be the next evil
Robbie kneivel is a goon
Why be thr next evel when hes thr first him
Kinda makes knievel jumps look a little lame
nice´:)
He is better than Evil. He lands on his wheels.
juckimal bullshit. Evil would have jumped over the moon if his bike was built the way they are built now.
Nobody had bigger balls than Evil.
Roger Rampage yepper Thanks
It was and will always be EVEL KNIEVEL Get it right........ Not Evil.
Ooh! Stop protecting Evel!! He was a daredevil and a showman.. Hes done..gone..dusted in an era of shit motorbikes and even shittier safety standards. As the same man today hed be Laughed at. He capitilised on something very few were doing and thats that.
The guy was a fucking piss drunk at a bar who took himself way too seriously.
Evil Knievel. LOL. All he did was crash. I could do that
I bet there are a lot of things in life you want to do but are just to much of a fucking pussy to come out of your grandmas basement.
Judging by the way you talk you must be an evangelical Christian .....
Did u not hear this guys injuries he got CRASHING?
Woo Hoo yeah real smart evil is the start of all this keep talking shit about an American hero we’re you from anyway
