His manger sold off his jump bikes. Tried last month to sell 3 together at 15,000 but couldn't get a bid. Then tired 10,000. Just looked this morning and two have sold separately for 4000 each. Wonder if Robbie owes him money? Said in sale these are the last jump bikes, Robbie will not jump anymore.
He is scheduled to jump in marrieta ohio late sept. The ohio river on a barge to west virginia. At least what the local paper printed.

Whatever else Evel was,he was a stud.he jumped stuff nobody else would on an overweight pig HD with a couple inches of suspension travel.Robbie doesn't deserve to carry one end of Evel's stretcher.
If RK wan't to prove something,why not a jump off with that Aussie guy(name escapes me right now).That would show a little ability I think.Cool

He had lots of skills as a kid. The adult jumps were WWF type stunts.

Robbie is a douche Max and most his jumps I would do right now no problem he's done a few good ones but the rest are lame and he rides like a D rider on crack.

I remember the night when he jumped and so did maddison Madison jumps like 300 feet looks perfect kneivel jumps like 80 feet and looks like hell I was cracking up.

I will give robbie some credit, making a living jumping motorcycles while the vital riders type away on their keyboards talking shit on him as they work 60hrs a week. If its that easy some of you guys should quit your jobs and do it.

If he wasn't a knievel,do you suppose he would have generated any interest doing what tons of regular "working people" can do?

Change his last name to 'Williams' or any other name that loser couldnt get a gig at the county fair. Hes milking his dads legacy and cant even do that very well.

I am right here. Do I know how Robbie lives his life? No, I do not and its none of my business.
Robbie has a show. Robbie sells tickets.
Some of you seem to have a problem with that and that would be a personal problem.

Anyone have Robbie's email. I'm thinking he might need a driver for a while. Could be a fun gig for a couple months.

Drinking is only fun when you are drinking too.

Is part of his show getting hammered and smashing into stuff with a RV and putting the lives of innocent bystanders at risk ?

Was this during Evel's younger years, or the last decade in his life? I was wrapped up in the bmx culture and mat hoffman was friends with him, did interviews with him, and had a signature bike for him. He always seemed like a cool laid back cat in his later years of life.


As far as Robbie, anybody living a life described in these threads is pretty sad. I hope someday he pulls together more courage than all of his stunts and starts facing his issues head on.

I give him props for catching backside on that tiny landing ramp in the video above. That must have been like hitting a bullzeye on a dartboard.

Your question is condescending and rhetorical.
Why is that?

Every time I've watched him jump I can't help but cringe, back brake please. I would love to have one of them 500s to transform into a motard. As far as him, well nothing more than semi wealthy white trash with an inherited famous name.

Bump, recent doc on amazon

“Chasing Evel”

Claims he’s the greatest jumper of all time. Sounds like he’s ready to start a family or some shit.

This was a fun thread to read through. I saw the documentary a couple weeks ago. It's funny how life works out. All he had was name recognition and less skill than a B rider.
