**Time to pull a classic post from the Bionic Disco vault. The following originally appeared June 19, 2011**

Here’s a totally radical magazine ad for you from 1975. Evel Knievel for Harley-Davidson – featuring “Knievel’s own XR-750” and other nifty AMF Harleys such as the FXE-1200 and the Z-90.

No, I don’t really know my bikes but Evel sure as hell did. This one time, he jumped over like 35 buses. He crashed and stuff but it was super cool.

_{See this arm kid? Broken in 16 places. Cool, huh?}

“Follow the lead of Evel Knievel. To the AMF Harley-Davidson world of freedom.”

Check out the official Evel Knievel site for more great pics like this.
