SUXBNME 1,297 Posted July 16, 2018 So the bike they showed in the beginning that was like 350 lb, that wasn't the bike that he used? I'm confused on that part. I could swear that the bike they showed in the beginning was of the rear dual shock variety. <--confused also Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wiffleball 4,617 Posted July 16, 2018 I could swear that the bike they showed in the beginning was of the rear dual shock variety. <--confused also Remember one of the things they showed was that evils bike had about look like 18 in of shock suppression on the front wheel and the new bike had about 6 in. Mostly I just remembered being one heavy ass bike. Weight as much as a slot machine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
parrot 789 Posted July 16, 2018 I could swear that the bike they showed in the beginning was of the rear dual shock variety. <--confused also I missed the beginning so I'm not sure what they showed, but the bike Pastrana jumped was an Indian Scout FTR 750. It definitely has a mono-shock rear, but with less than 5 inches of travel it probably wouldn't have been that much different than an old dual shock bike as far as a harsh landing. https://2yrh403fk8vd1hz9ro2n46dd-wpengine.netdna-ssl.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/2018-travis-pastrana-evel-knievel-jump-6.jpg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
