Can We Lift The KTM RC8C By Hand? 

LOL we realized it later after a friend of ours called me up to tell me that I am an Idiot for not thinking of that! hahahahaa! Thanks for watching and leaving a comment!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Glad you enjoyed it! 🤣

That's where my head is at as well. Now to find someone to purchase my toy hauler and truck...

Haha, thanks man. Yep just some dudes shooting the shit taking a bike apart. It was fun to record, edit, and share that's for sure. Happy holidays Dukie! Hope you have a great one!

Hello!!! Thanks for watching and commenting. I believe there's a fellow in the UK who makes a Bursig stand adapter that fits the Kramer GP2R AND RC8C, so you can lift it as a side stand!

@@vtranmoto I have tried a quick google search, but I can't find him, do you have a name? The stand looks like a great solution.

@@iainhutchinson345 reach out to Rick: instagram.com/rickbreen28?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y= He’s over in the UK and the Bursig for the Kramer GP2R should be compatible with the RC8C (same chassis). 👍

@@vtranmoto Thank you

That is a great idea Allan, happy to do a video more about the costs of club racing or even trackdays. I'll definitely do a vid when we are ready to put her back together. Are you looking to do your first trackday?

@@vtranmoto yes I am looking around here in Northern California and made it a goal for myself to get myself through some sort of track school program or instructional track days , but they are not cheap , so I really have to find out what’s all out there and how it compares 🤷🏻‍♂️ to other programs or instructional track day events, and how to go about with out it setting me back too too much , but I guess it is what too too much means …??? 🤷🏻‍♂️💸💸💸 I know I got to cough up some dollars 💵 but I think I need to have a budget in mind that I should probably stick too , so we shall see 👍🫡⚙️🆙

Thank you very much! It’s been a great race bike here in the US. Are there tracks in Hanoi?

@@vtranmoto In Hanoi there's only the F1 track near the Mydinh stadium, and it's a street circuit. About two months ago, the finale of Vietnam Motor Racing Championship consisting of 125cc underbone, 150cc underbone and 150cc sportbike segments was held there. And there was even a NSF100 segments for young talented racers. Things have been changing and 600-1000cc riders will have the opportunity to race in the circuit some time later legally. ;)

@@severussnape6886 that sounds like a very exciting time. I wonder if I visit I could ride in some of the trackday or races?

@@vtranmoto I cannot say anything about it. Currently, it is still closed for regular track days and only some huge companies can rent the track for some great events like the 2022 VMRC Finale.

@@severussnape6886 that is still very exciting to see motorsports spread more and more around the world :) would love to try riding track in VN one day!

Yeah yeah!!! Everyone told us AFTERWARDS lol 😂 happy holidays!

Soooooo we're idiots and realized this..AFTERWARDS, hahaha...

@@vtranmoto Some times we get so focused on a task that fresh eyes see what others miss. I always look forward to your videos thank you for your and your friends work.

@@michaeldriggers593 thank you Michael, very well put and *much* appreciated.

Thanks Mathis, appreciate it. I watched a MotoGP event at Laguna Seca a long time ago and when I saw the riders in person the light bulb clicked in my head that I needed to *learn* the skills/techniques of riding to be able to really enjoy and use the bike for its full potential. So I signed up for a trackday and got hooked ever sense. Given that you're in uni and still young, I'd encourage you to find a kart track and get started with minibikes (like a KTM 65, Grom, CRF150R): (1) you're going to learn the same exact skills that you would need for big bike (2) it is far less dangerous than big track (3) it is *SIGNIFICANTLY* cheaper to start with minis, for example in the US, my KX65/KTM65 is around $3000, each mini trackday is $75, one set of tires is about $220 and it'll last the entire season. You could also use your 125cc to do it as well. Compared to big bike trackday: -Trackbike can cost anywhere from $5000-50,000 -Each trackday is minimum $250 + petrol + travel/towing -Tires are $300-500/set depending on what you get + they wear out much faster so you'll be spending a lot of money each year on tires alone -Danger is significantly higher -Learning is more difficult on a big bike, you can make many mistakes on a mini and learn from them without the danger, whereas crashing on a big bike is extremely expensive and dangerous and you're going to have a harder time pushing the limits and learning Hope this helps and good luck with uni this year!

@@vtranmoto thank you so much man, very helpful reply!! good luck with your next season

I don't know if I should laugh or cry! 😂😂😂😂 Maybe a bit of both!? Just hoping some folks enjoy nice/rare track bikes and my shenanigans. Thanks for watching and commenting!

hahaha! The money I make on this channel can't even pay for a few gallons of race gas. 😂
