Enslow Breaks Harley Jump Record
Date: Mar.03.2010
Stunt rider Seth Enslow broke the world record for the longest distance jumped on a Harley-Davidson motorcycle March 2nd, flying through the air near Australia's Sydney Harbour to shatter the previous 10-year-old record. Enslow flew to a new record distance of 183.7 feet (56 meters) on his Harley-Davidson XR1200 shortly after a 175 foot (53.34 meters) jump. Bubba Blackwell set the previous record with a 157 foot (47.85 meters) jump in Las Vegas in 1999.
Evel Knievel set the record in 1975 and held it for 24 years before Blackwell's jump.
