Evel Knievel rides again


The King of Stuntmen is back, played by George Eads (a.k.a. Nick on "C.S.I."). Personally, I like this casting decision; how about you?

Hi Yall,

I am new here. I used to be an EK freak when I was a kid. Got to meet him a few times and so on. Now I need some help here . What movie are you all speakin of. I heard there was a deal comming out with Mc Donahu (sp) or how ever he spells it staring as E.

I am in the motorcycle industry and used to do stunts myself .You can see some of my picks on my web sight at www.cosmotor.com click on the vintage pictures and I even have a picture of one of E's new bikes he had built reasently. "I supplied some parts for it"

Can one of you please tell me about this movie I was waitin on; and this one you are speakin of. Please contact me at my websight also cause i haven't the faintest idea how to get back to here but, i will try to.

As far as bustin his balls just riember this boys and girls. He was a hard ass and he pissed an ishload of people off ,I was one of them but, he still pulled the trigger. A 300 pound Tank, that is what an XR750 is when it becomes airborn is not ment to fly.And before the HD's there were bigger and heavier Laverda's (that was the American eagle ) and Triumphs and Nortons all of witch have No suspension to speak of.. Todays MotoX bikes can do a 200 foot jump stock, off the showroom floor in Knobbie tires with any body who is willin to pull the trigger.

For every 1 person willing to pull the trigger there is a few 100 thousand who would like to but can't.

Best wishes to you guys and riemember, Leed, pass or get out of the way !

Joe

I agree. Good show. Evel is King. Check out Last of the Gladiators for more good shots.

well other than the fact there's a whack of bloopers and mistakes ( such as the bike that was used in the movie for jumping was a Truimph and not a Harley) that I saw on the video over at youTube and i missed the movie when it came out the first time,hopefully it will be on again as a memorial to the original Dare Devil!!!!..RIP Evel!!

Actually Evel jumped the fountain on an AMERICAN EAGLE - an italian version of a Triumph. Harley would not sponsor him at the time.
