evil knievel...
anyone ever see the evel knievel harley davidson? have pictures or info? it was the same as evel's 1976 white with his colors red, blue stars, stripes and had his name on it. i remember this bike as i think it was a kids motorcycle of sorts... not sure if it was a "sportster" styled or not maybe even smaller in size. just wondering if anyone remembers that. if anyone knows or has images post that if you could. not much info even from harley davidson's history.

It was the XR 750 the road racing model. Higher RPM and Torque. Looked very much like a Sportster from which it was derived.
