KTM RC8C at Jerez with Dani Pedrosa 

Thank you very much! Definitely a highlight for me. Can’t wait to get it out on track here in the States. :)

Definitely! I’ll post a video shortly of Dani giving a master class on direction changes/body movement. Stay tuned!

Hi there, here’s the video with Dani’s lesson on body mechanics ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-mE6gzImK460.html

Thanks so much for watching :) hope you subscribe for more adventures. I’ve got an even more interesting bike on the way :D

It was and still is the highlight of my moto-life 😊

Thanks so much :) definitely unforgettable experience for me

haha amen!!! MotoGP just did their winter test in Jerez and I can proudly say...I am 20 seconds behind their times LOL. Thank you and hope you subscribe!

This seriously made me smile. Thank you Erez, really appreciate your taking the time to write this! I love track riding because it’s like learning an instrument or martial art, no matter what level your proficiency is at, there’s always more! And Pedrosa is certainly a *master* of his instrument. 🤩 Thanks again and ride safe out there!

@@vtranmoto my pleasure ☺️. I have video request/ idea please: would you mind doing a track day prep video? Not just the bike, plenty of those, but how you prepare yourself. Whether learning the track, focusing and carbing up the night before a race, that is something I’d enjoy watching

@@erezfishman778 glad you asked because I did make a video specific to that! So You Want To Do a Trackday? (BONUS: 3 Things to Avoid!) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Ph8lwx3x-wc.html Hope you find it useful and enjoyable!

Hahah yeah, it’s a lot for sure but the whole experience was worth it for me. Wait till you see the next bike :D Hope you subscribe we have some fun stuff coming up!

I thought I had subbed tbf :) All the best!

@@KentRoads whoo! Thank you :) I’m just starting out, really appreciate your support

Thank you so much! I’m so excited to get it here in the States. Will do an in-depth video once it arrives. :)

Hahaha I had agreed to film some folks! Didn’t want to be rude and I just enjoyed being out there in general 😁

Thanks so much Ivan! It was an incredible experience, very grateful to be able to do it. Hope you subscribe, I have another bike coming in that I think folks will like quite a lot. :)

Absolute LEGEND! unreal!!!

thank you! I wish I had a filter because it was *so* bright, but it was such a privilege to be able to ride with Dani.

@@vtranmoto 😀

Thank you! Yeah I was SUPER bummed when I got back got be pits and saw how washed out it was. I hope you had a chance to see the other videos, I’ve been able to get the appropriate filters so the color is better now.

It is an incredible bike, where are you located? I'm in Texas. Also, we have a KTM RC 8C owner group that you should join: facebook.com/groups/210258747695771

@@vtranmoto Thanks, I'm in California (Bay Area)

Hello from Houston! Thanks so much :) apparently we only have 8 total bound for the US. If you’re ever at the track come by and check it out in person. Should be here in 6-8 weeks according to KTM!

Hi there, thanks for watching! I am using a Max Lens Mod with my GoPro 9; the Max Lens Mod increases the width/horizon and also does the horizon lock. I like the perspective but unfortunately did not have a ND filter for the day and it was a *perfect* day in southern Spain. :( You can also see more recent footage on my channel where I play with different filters while filming on the Ohvale. Hope that helps and also hope you subscribe, thank you!

Cheers mate! Definitely a memory I’ll cherish for a lifetime :)

well you have to buy it first, hahaha. Brappy days indeed!

@@vtranmoto Are they doing lay away?

@@dontbelieveeverythingyouth8173 there were only 100 for sale, when it was available to purchase you had to put 10% deposit down immediately. The rest paid upon receipt of the bike at your local dealer. The crazy thing is all 100 sold out in 4 minutes and 30 something seconds and the first 25 sold out in around 1 minute 10 seconds. So I was extremely lucky to be able to be one of the first 25 to go to Spain! Very very brappy, haha!

thank you Curtis! I've been informed the bike is on its way here to the States so I'm hoping to be able to share an indepth video soon. :)

@@vtranmoto Looking forward to THAT!

I’m using the GoPro 9 + Max Lens Mod which stabilizes the horizon. :D still experimenting with my setup.

@@vtranmoto ohh that why.. its act like a gimbal.. still feel weird though.. hhaaa

@@zethyazid1302 haha yeah definitely different, I also tried using a chinmount but the angle was completely off. Will be out on track again tomorrow so I’ll try a different setup.

I tried a new setup on the Ohvale hoping this camera setup is better ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-yBJnOp4Tz4M.html

@@vtranmoto yupp thats better.. and its good too.. i can feel those lean too.. its immersive those new setup.. keep it up with more great content bro.. may the revs and the apex be with u.. hhaa

@@vtranmoto 💯💯💯💯

Thank you! I'm not entirely sure about the RC's configuration, but I agree with you it has a V-like soundtrack. It's incredible in person. Far louder and angrier than I was expecting. It seems like you probably enjoy the engineering/technical aspects of motorcycles, I just uploaded this video of our private presentation by KTM and Markus Kramer, I hope you enjoy it: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-GcNOKY7UKzw.html. I was also inspired by your comment about the sound because I absolutely love it: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7xU9ByQi1Ek.html. :)

@@vtranmoto Cheers mate. I've begun to watch the linked video but I'm on my way out for the afternoon. I've bookmarked it as it's really interesting. So many well thought out details in just the first 5 minutes. Anyway, I'll watch the rest this evening and thanks so much for posting it up 😊

@@nomojo1110 absolutely! I should be getting the bike in a few weeks. They just confirmed they’ve shipped out the first batch this week. Will do more in-depth footage soon.

Kato? LMAO!!!

Hi there, great question. So it's based off the 890-Twin but tuned for track, I believe some of the internals are different and the programming is definitely sport oriented + the electronics suite with quickshifter/autoblipper and 2 settings for engine braking. You can set it to low engine brake which is preferred and also the brakes have an insane amount of adjustability which was cool. How I would characterize the bike (also echoed by other customers) is that the bike felt "Complete". Like it was just the complete package. Right out of the box it was incredibly comfortable to hop on, learn, and ride fast. I don't know any sportbike that is so comfortable from the first moments. I have a pretty tricked out 2020 R6 and that thing needs you to ring its neck for it to feel good, the RC8C on the other hand feels like a track weapon that wants to work with you from the start. The agility/corner speed is BLISSFUL. The engine is good, it doesn't have the peak of an inline4 so you find yourself shortshifting likely more than you would with the inline4 to keep at peak power, but that's my only super "nitpick" (if you could call it that). Thanks again and hope you subscribe to the channel, I'll do a bunch of comparisons with the RC8C vs some of my other bikes soon, thank you! :)

Thank you! Jerez has a few straights but they’re not all that long so top speed we did that day was about 142mph based on the AIM data. I’m going to be taking it to COTA in November so we will see what the true top speed is on COTA’s 1KM long straight :):):) Plz consider subscribing for more videos! Thank you!

I totally agree! first time on the bike, first time at Jerez. Will be back for more :D

The electronics/gear were quite smooth. The autoblipper was far smoother than my 2020 R6 and pretty close to the Aprilia systems I've used in the past. Thanks for watching :)

Yeah, I’m super bummed out with the footage quality. I immediately ordered a bunch of ND filters afterwards but sadly that was the opportunity to record Dani up close. Next time!

Got to get out on the kart track yesterday and tested 4 different settings, I think this is a much better setup ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-yBJnOp4Tz4M.html

Thanks Andy! Definitely an experience of a lifetime for me 🙏

Not too sure about that, he seemed to be enjoying himself :) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-mE6gzImK460.html&feature=share

Fk Honda!

Thank you!! I only wish I had the proper lens to cut out the sun, but it was definitely one of the rides of my life. I should have the bike in a few weeks. Will keep posting and try to attend these types of events again. Thanks! :)

HAHAHA! good one. Yeah this was such a missed opportunity for me, I had just started all this vlogging stuff and didn't know to get the ND Filter for bright days so when I reviewed the footage once I got back to the US I was so devastated! Once in a lifetime opportunity. >.

@@vtranmoto still good enough to share, I really enjoyed it ! Don't worry mate I've done the same thing , I adjusted mine on a day where I had a few PBs , in the garage looked fine as soon as I was on track the whole video was white , I was was lucky enough to stilI have my logger data available. Thanks again for sharing, very useful tips for other fellow riders, a lot (actually ALL of it) I was able to take on board. Loving the videos keep it up man 🤜🏼🤛🏼

@@Lordy23 thank you 🙏 it’s gonna be a great season! 😁

Around 150mph, at COTA I was at 155mph on the back straight, but I am really bad at COTA >.< I think better rider will get closer to 160mph

@@vtranmoto With your skill and experience and a bigger bike, you can hit the ton(2) at COTA for sure.

It uses an 890R engine, 890cc parallel twin with 128horsepower. Here’s a detailed breakdown of the bike in case you’re interested in the details: m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-GcNOKY7UKzw.html

Those who couldn't afford it but wanted to probably lol.

@@motorcycle-man What about the once who could ?

@@markjurczyk They were too late. That's usually how that works with limited runs.

@@motorcycle-man We were at our computer 20 min before , clicked at the right time and nothing happened ! No worries here , two of us got Kramer instead , lol

@@markjurczyk Basically same bike for less bucks, sounds perfect to me.😂😂

Hey man! At Jerez we reached 142mph or 228kph, but the straights are not that long. I will have it at COTA in Austin in November so we will find out true top speed on the 1KM straight :)

@@vtranmoto cool bro.....will be eagerly waiting for that 🔥

I'm the bike with the camera, my friend Li is directly in front, then Pedrosa and eventually I go pass Li to follow Pedrosa. Yeah the horizon leveling is so good on GoPros these days!
