RAMP TO RAMP MOTORCYCLE
JUMPING WORLD RECORDS
RAMP TO RAMP.
a. RAMP GAP.
Current 500cc record holder: Doug Danger,
220 ft., around June 27th, 1991. This was to re-do the world record attempt that
was improperly measured on June 22, 1991 for the television series Stuntmasters.
No cars were in the gap on this world record, but evidence shows that the gap
was the same as it had been with 38 cars between the ramps and that he did fly
farther and for a longer time than the shorter jump on June 22.

Gilks, 110 feet, 7-29-2006, on a Suzuki RM85 big wheel in Butte, MT at Knievel
