Evel's Triumph Bonneville 650 was reportedly stolen after the crash at Caesars Palace. Who ever stole it probably didn't get much though, since it was heavily damaged in the crash and caught fire after it stopped tumbling. The smoke from the fire can be seen in the video of the crash shown in the movie Evel Knievel from 1971. After recovering from the Caesars crash Evel began jumping on the # 2 wheelie bike , which was also a Bonneville 650 except it had no parachute.
