The previous record, set in 1974 by Bob Gill, was 171 feet.
The next event for Raha is the X Games in Salt Lake City, Utah, and he looks to earn his seventh gold medal.
After that, Raha is going to be at the Sturgis rally in South Dakota, and looks to break the furthest Harley-Davidson distance world record of all time.
