My First TRACK DAY at PTC on the KTM RC8R!
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Finally! I've been talking about this day since the days of the R6 and here we are! I wasn't able to get the best track footage as I thought I would be able to wear my helmet mounted setup. I Jerry rigged a temporary solution during the session, but next time I will have it setup right. Definitely a blast and will be doing it again soon! If you have not done a track day it's a MUST!

Track stuff is cool but the limited shooting options sort of kill it to an extent. Everyone’s track day videos end up being almost identical to an extent. Not hating at all, love your videos and skills!!

@@shanemoto97 Thanks! Yeah can't really make these types of videos any different really. lol Just different people with different bikes and paces.
It’s like crack, one hit and you’re hooked! 🏁 Downside is that it’s just as expensive, upside is that you get to keep your teeth! 😬🤣

Haha! Facts! I’m already planning my next trip back! Get some better on track footage. This track isn’t too bad on pricing. Under $200.

Thanks for sharing this! That track looks great!!!!
RC8 is beautiful ❤️😍
Love the RC8, there is one for sale close to me in the same color for a really low price. I know if I go look at it I'll buy it :') Could be a forever bike.
Glad to see you finally got to a track day man!

It’s always running through my mind about messing the fairings up! Lol
Love watching your videos. I have an 2015 rc8r but thinking of adding another bike to the collection. I see you ride several bikes. Any suggestions on what to choose?

The jester exhaust is loud. I think this motorcycle is the loudest of all the sport bikes. It runs smooth. I would sell for the right price. I am looking at an aprila now, but I am not sure if I want to spend the money. It is hard to beat the torque of the rc8r.
I must have missed it, what track was this? can't wait to get back to the states and finally get some track time under the belt
