Description

WE
ARE
CLEARING OUT OUR ARCHIVES!
A superb and rare photo. Shown is
Evel Knievel
’s incredible
Triumph
jet jump bike, or as he called it,
Sky Cycle
, from 1968. It is equipped with two jet engines that are visible on the photo! The deltawing structures on each side of the machine were created to give it more lift… Evel wanted to jump over the
Grand Canyon
with this machine.
Behind the saddle, in the large bag, we see his parachute. Evel jumped on several occasions with this mighty machine. The bike basically is a
650cc Triumph Bonneville TT Special
, which was his jump bike at the time, equipped with two jet engines!
Triumph was the main brand Evel used to jump with, prior to his switch to Harley-Davidson in the early 1970’s. He jumped with the HD XR 750 jump bike then.
On the photo, Evel (seen at the left) is showing off his famous twin jet engine during the famous Joey Bishop TV show (Bishop seen at the right).
