How to Ride a KTM RC8

[@thevisitor784]

Congrats on some fast & cautious street-riding, having the discipline to lower closing speeds with oncoming traffic. Have an upvote for being quick but not a squid.

[@vyrnmn]

Close to 100mph in a 30mph zone is a bit silly. 1:57. Hard acceleration through two gears before he got to the national limit sign, approaching a left hand bend in the wrong position. Poor position limited visibility of the wet road around the bend, which caused a bit of a moment getting it slowed enough to keep it on his side, and not end up having a head-on. Also, overaking a cyclist at 110mph with car approaching in the opposing lane is a bit silly, too, as well as overtaking on double white lines. I don't think cautious is the right word. Definitely confident, but not cautious.

[@Lynxtro]

brown trouser moment at 6:07 ? :p

[@fluidiccrayon7181]

Thats normal ride dynamic on a RC8

[@gixxerwebbo]

Riding like a beast mate making the most of the British country roads loved getting my gsxr 750 out in the country and opening her up makes me miss it so much !

[@CbrHooniganSendit]

its alot of fun mate riding any bike

[@dadude7]

Camera always makes it look worse. He's a pretty comfortable rider. Good video.

[@f9nnad]

I was watching and at around 3minutes, I thought OK pretty standard aside from the 2corners(1 of 'em you kinda pre-edjaculate (funnys) and they are speedy). but, then it hits 3:50 and you go down that stretch with all the bumps and holes, at 500mph. My whole $£%"^ing body went warm with happiness. thanks mate. that was sick.

[@esuohdica]

I was comfortable with most of that riding, but it was 50/50 whether the van at 6.15 was gonna pull out! Just be ready!

[@1pelikone]

Palms are sweaty, Knees weak arms are heavy

[@mickgrim56]

[@michaelmcmillan8814]

Off topic but how do I do a trip reset on this bike?

[@karldb7674]

nice riding mate, enjoyed it

[@Knasfur]

lefthand traffic is scary

[@CbrHooniganSendit]

It shouldnt be aha

[@_FishingDudeTV]

you like the KTM over Honda. I kinda want one cuz you don't see a lot of them. whats your thoughts on it?

[@CbrHooniganSendit]

there nice bikes just alot of issues with the ktms

[@_FishingDudeTV]

So their not reliable as a cbr

[@CbrHooniganSendit]

well the cbr125 will be more reliable than any of the ktms.

[@_FishingDudeTV]

Damn. I might as well get a new cbr1000rr

[@Kevin-yh8ol]

How are the brakes? Do they easily lock?

[@detoxion1111]

very nice ride.love it

[@staLkerhu]

Is it true that these V2 things vibrate as hell, and you have shaky hands after an hour of riding? Is it that bad?

[@CbrHooniganSendit]

Nearly every bike has engine vibrations. Best way to counter this is heavier bar ends

[@KTMAngryDragon]

So.. Aside from a couple of 'oh shit' moments I noticed in the bends.. How did you find it? They can catch you out can't they?!

[@CbrHooniganSendit]

Weapon, is the most apt description, but it is too much for the road. wana race me again ;) ill borrow this again haha kidding they are nice bikes like need to boom abit more with a exhaust on it though

[@KTMAngryDragon]

No thanks. I have to pay for mine if I crash it. ;) I'll keep that kind of riding for the track days where it's safer and in a controlled environment.

[@CbrHooniganSendit]

You crash anyways it will be rate ;) how many track days you done on your track orientated bike?

[@KTMAngryDragon]

I just got it so none!

[@CbrHooniganSendit]

Got any planned?

[@MrLukealbanese]

enjoyed it, great fun. Bit like my TL!!

[@cameronleonard6387]

Those are some sketchy ass narrow roads! you are definitely more daring than i am on my panigale!

[@CbrHooniganSendit]

[@cameronleonard6387]

***** btw i like the hjc helmet. good choice. hit gravel and went off the road at 85 and the visor did not come open.

[@CbrHooniganSendit]

[@CbrHooniganSendit]

[@nunosantiago8195]

Ever heard of a tractor? or a mioptic pensioner pulling out of one of those farms? And those nice water puddles just waiting to get you...That aside, great bike, just got one myself. Thanks for showing me how not to ride it.

[@gss6531]

I highly doubt you've even got the balls to ride like this guy.

[@x_scandinavian_x2761]

@@gss6531 You don't need anything to ride like this. Only a bike.

[@tempest411]

[@grashopr1890]

[@CbrHooniganSendit]

[@ogechinjoku6851]

Do you think a mod could make it sound less horrible

[@CbrHooniganSendit]

It was on standard exhausts mate.

[@dberrill15108]

How fast did you speed up the video? Looks like your actually going pretty slow :)

[@dberrill15108]

[@CbrHooniganSendit]

[@CbrHooniganSendit]

Dermot KTM Im confused you have the akrapovic version without the akra cans? and have you got a power comander on it ?

[@dermymoto]

Its the akrapovic limited edition RC8R....number 88 of 100. I have the evolution 6 akrapovic system. No power commander needed as the akra ltd ed is set up for the evo 4 and evo 6 systems

[@macstrzal3318]

this should be road strictly for mopeds!!!! hahahahahh I love that circle in town buuhhaaa

[@rudrapatil6014]

Ktm rc 8r is beast

[@zacholson6164]

As a current RC8R owner, I'm sad that the world will soon lose a beautiful bike to douchey dangerous riding. However, I am overjoyed that the world will soon lose a douchey rider to dangerous douchey riding.

[@zacholson6164]

***** Are you calling your own bike shit? Even if you are, every reputable source on the bike disagrees with you. Given your reckless and ignorant driving, I'm not going to hold your opinions in high regard. And Xfactor auditions are awesome...I don't really even have to defend myself there...

[@CbrHooniganSendit]

Not my own bike, and no there underpowered compared to its direct competition, and had alot of teething problems.

[@zacholson6164]

They're slightly unpowered, but being that most owners of the bike aren't actually racing them that's pretty insignificant. They're exponentially more fun than other bikes of equal or greater value.

[@Subscribe505]

Got some serious balls haha

[@CbrHooniganSendit]

+SleepEatRide if in doubt flat out

[@F222RST]

Mate o mine ad a bad accident just before that bridge .that white van was thinking about pulling out fuk me

[@CbrHooniganSendit]

It goes like fuck

[@kennymacm3031]

[@alanmacer5078]

Who Cares

[@joedavidson3311]

Hand me the wet wipes

[@ffonseca0]

Go to the track!

[@eatthecheese26]

Im preety sure you're riding the bike properly! 😀😝 lol

[@SJCB27]

Was hoping for a bit more than: "F**k me, this is fast!"... Basically, should I trade in my Double Bloody R for one of these Orange Things? A fuller review would be most welcome and might even lead to my buying you a coffee at Squires... Then again, now it's gone up to £1.60, perhaps not. Enjoyed the video, thanks for posting.

[@CbrHooniganSendit]

Haha what a comment, depends which RR your talking about either way should let me have ago.

[@SJCB27]

***** The Kraut one and no, you're not having a go... Especially down that shitty road to Lotherton Hall!

[@CbrHooniganSendit]

Darn it, and me personally id stick with the german :)

[@nrgjdizzle]

No crap, this video is why i did not end up getting the rc8. He ruined it for me. Too much. I went for a superduke 690

[@DieRobbibox]

Yeah. Good skills bo doubt there, but a pretty irresponsible way of using them on the road...
