Default Seth enslow to make attempt at harley jump record



Seth Enslow better known through his role with the Crusty Demons of Dirt and his motorcycle distance jumping records, is out to set a new world record jump on a Harley-Davidson. The Harley-Davidson he plans to jump is a brand new XR1200 with specially developed suspension. Enslow plans to break previous records set on an Harley-Davidson XR750 by none other than Evel Knievel, who in February 1971 set a new world record by jumping 19 cars and a distance of 151 feet (46m). Later beating Kinevel was Bubba Blackwell then pushed past the record by jumping 157 feet (47.8).



Enslow now wants to jump the XR1200 past the 200 foot (60.9m) mark. He has been spotted in Australia recently testing for this jump. The jump is scheduled for the end of March 2009 to coincide with the Official Grand Opening of the Red Rock Harley Davidson dealer in Las Vegas. This jump will be an amazing jump considering it will be done on a Harely in Las Vegas. Check back for details as the event gets closer.

Watch the video of Enslow praticing the jump in Australia recently.
