the count down has started to the new world record jump on a Harley in Australia

http://www.harleyworldrecordjump.com/

Seth Enslow to attempt new long distance record jump on a Harley-Davidson motorcycle

MILWAUKEE (February 25, 2010) - Freestyle motocrosser Seth Enslow will attempt to make history and break the existing record of 157 feet for a successful long distance jump aboard a Harley-Davidson motorcycle. The world record was first benchmarked by Evel Knievel in 1975 and recently set by Bubba Blackwell in 1999.
Enslow will attempt the jump aboard a modified Harley-Davidson XR1200 in Sydney, Australia, on Monday, March 1st at 4:30 PM U.S. Central Time. The jump will be broadcast live from Australia across the globe via http://www.harleyworldrecordjump.com and post-event video will be shown on Harley-Davidson’s YouTube channel and to Harley’s half-million Facebook fans as well.

the sound quality and the volume on the live show left alot to be desired, i was surprised not to see a massive crowd watching such a stunt, i donno if it was cuz he was hurting so much from banging his nuts on the tank or is he just a man of few words in the after stunt interview. That xr1200 sure was modified, the moto cross suspension made the seat height so tall he could only touch the ground with one foot.

Get your "Motor Running Head", out on the highway!

What we've got here is... failure to communicate. Some men you just can't reach. So you get what we had here last week, which is the way he wants it... well, he gets it. I don't like it any more than you men
