Evel Knievel Street Chopper is the Limited Edition children’s replica of the street cruiser ridden by American motorcycle daredevil Robert Craig “Evel” Knievel. Knievel, who set the world record by jumping over 19 cars, preferred riding his chopper when not performing stunts.
Approved and certified for accuracy by Knievel’s son Kelly, the cycle’s 12-volt motor tops out at a conservative 4 mph, ideal for a child’s leisurely spin around the block.
A twist of the throttle propels the chopper; releasing the throttle disengages the motor, bringing the cycle to a stop. A switch on the chassis changes direction from forward to reverse.
The street chopper features a low-slung seat, high handlebars, extended front fork, and chrome-finish trim. Equipped with a working headlight and training wheels, the street chopper is decorated with Knievel’s iconic patriotic detailing, including a numbered certificate of authenticity.
It operates for two hours on a 10-hour charge from the included AC charger.
What a cool ride!!!!

The Evel Knievel Classic Motorcycle is by far the greatest toy ever made.I put my Evel Knievel classic through more dangerous and death defying stunts than the actual Evel Knievel could have survived in 10 lifetimes.
Like everyone else, I too suffered more than my share of bruised knuckles trying to achieve scale speeds of Mach 1!!
I would love to see Capt. Robby Knievel market a toy. I would have my 40 year old butt right out in my driveway jumping it over model cars!!
Screw radio control rides, long live the Evel Knievel stunt cycle!!
