2011 KTM RC8R FMF Apex exhaust

[dmncanter]

my uncle had a busa with stage 6 turbo did over 300 mph on closed down air strip

[RETICS1]

Wow, what a great sound, I want to get another bike to put next to my RSV4R in the garage, was thinking this or the Duc 1199. So far I like the white an orange,, black is a scratch magnet but looks awesome none the less. Thanks for sharing

[GG0SG]

Nice Bike.

Why didn't you make video while you exchanging the titanium exhaust with the original one?

[MrBigpapiiii]

Sexiest bike on the road. Period

[kenny1020304050]

my 97 Suzuki tl1000s sounded like that love it 

[KOSKESH43]

is that a full system?

[01Extreme69]

@KOSKESH43 FMF calls it a full system, but not really. It does not replace headers.

[KOSKESH43]

@01Extreme69 how much is it and is it worth of buying? like does it sound good in person? cuz all the Vtwin in the Videos doesn't sound like the real sound in person!

[ironmedic]

i miss riding my RC8! its my favorite bike to ride!

[boom10123]

I bet that fast man

[01Extreme69]

@boom10123 After the ECU was remapped for the exhaust, it runs 100 times better and faster. I was quite surprised to lift up the front while in third gear. Its a whole new bike now.

[MrCoryjames86]

JAXSB!! hell ya! but on another note i fucking love this bike and have been looking everywhere for one.....the search continues

[01Extreme69]

@MrCoryjames86 Might be selling this one. Maybe....... I got over $20k in it.

[akchronic79]

nothing is more annoying than hearing UM every couple sentences.

[01Extreme69]

@akchronic79 Yeah, Cant please everyone, but atleast you know I aint some toolbag paid by KTM to post a vid. So enjoy, and quite complaining.

[Cornalmullin]

you have some adjusting to do

[RSD760]

I have a 2010 Ktm RC8 but not the "R" edition. The pegs, rear seat and tool kit/bag come in a box when you buy the bike. It takes all of 10 minutes to put them on but looks a lot nicer when they are off. I also have an FMF exhaust on my bike also. Its nice to finally hear the bike at speed because before I couldn't.

[vafireman21]

What's better? RC51 or RC8?

[01Extreme69]

@vafireman21 I miss my RC51, but love the KTM. KTM is so much better.

[krulkntrdction]

anyone else catch that scream at the end??? wtf was that all about??



[01Extreme69]

@krulkntrdction HAHAHAHA, Good catch, that was weird. Probably the bratty little kids playing outside.

[tomatenzopp]

nice bike, and nice chicken strips ;))



[01Extreme69]

@tomatenzopp It was still new. I could always gloat and show my pucks on my leathers, from riding the RC51. No one should buy a RC8, without intentions of throwing it through some twistys.

[NQSchleu]

Dude, this bike is sick

[morominaolenmina]

damn that bike is awesome!!!

[mvz1991]

finally some sound at 2:38

[bigmike690smc]

sic....

[ironmedic]

nice bike! i see you did the fender dump kit. where do the turn signals go if you remove the rear fender? the rear turn signals inside the rear lamp? i am going to be picking up one this weekend!

[01Extreme69]

@ironmedic I had them all removed in the video, but I put the mirrors/front signals back on cause the stupid Army said so, and I had a rear bracket made for plate, plate light, and signals.

[poogemister]

AND you have an RC51!!! Nice man!!!!

[01Extreme69]

@DucRacerX There is a seat that attaches.

[01Extreme69]

@DucRacerX Was able to fix the issue, had to adjust the brackets and springs.

[01Extreme69]

@AbuLaith03 I have not added a PC, I heard there was a way to remap the ecu, but cant find the program or adapters to do it.

[TheCoolMovement]

God what a stunning looking bike

[GradyRho92]

someone got a nice bonus

[fumundad5knuts]

i see you have passenger pegs did you put them on or did your bike come that way?

[01Extreme69]

@fumundad5knuts Came with them

[sabbathian]

I`m jealous of your licence plate.... ours are around 5 times bigger... kills every bike on which you put it... so you gotta modifications that cops really adore ...

[tripletrash]

you should post a video on your heat shield, i'm interested to see what you did there.

[2008superduke]

Nice vid. FMF are great to deal with I had a prob with my cans and they sent a replacement. What did you do with the rear tail license plate bracket turn signals. I will hopefully be adding this same bike to my sable. Would like to start track days

[Pmason718]

How did you get rear passenger pegs? I always see the bike without them.

[01Extreme69]

@Pmason718 The bike came with pass pegs.

[redsoul41]

@01Extreme69 but the passanger has no seat right ?

[ironmedic]

@redsoul41 there is a passenger seat for the bike. you clip it in.

[01Extreme69]

@ironmedic Yes, it has plugs where the seat mounts while not using it. The pass seat is actually not to bad either.

[101stunt]

let me know if you could e-mail me those pics.

[101stunt]

Hi i'm running into the same problem with the heat on my right leg. Feels like my right shin is on fire. could you take a pic of your heat sheild you made? thanks

[dermymoto]

great video fella.I have a 2010 kwak Z1000 and just bought a 2010 ktm 690smc.Both have full akrapovic systems on.I love both bikes and am planning on getting a 2009 RC8 next year.I might be able to stretch to an RC8R but I have a strong urge to sell one or both of my bikes and get one like yours.I already have a JCE exhaust for the rc8 sitting up i my attic.

Im just wondering if there would be a big difference between an older RC8 and your bike.Keep the 3 or get a new RC8R???

[01Extreme69]

@AbuLaith03 I got it from jaxmotosport (dot) com. I spent about 3 weeks trying to find someone who had it in stock. I also called FMF, and they didn't even have any in stock. Good luck, and jump on one when you find it. I did not remap or add the PC yet. I am in the Military and getting stationed in Europe so I am going to get the ECU flashed to Euro specs before I do any electronic mods.

[rosander08]

Quick question. Im thinking about buying either this bike or the 848 evo. It will be my first sport bike I always hear people say start out small but is that really necessary?

[01Extreme69]

@rosander08 I personally have been riding sportbikes for about 13 years, and I would also recommend starting with a 600. This KTM would not be a good beginner bike. Its very touchy. Look at 600's and 1000's from a big picture. They are very similar with a few differences.The 1000's have a slightly faster top end, (maybe 15mph), they are touchy, and less forgiving. If you want a bike for a status, you should get a cruiser. These WILL KILL YOU, especially being inexperience for the power.

[CAJFB]

@01Extreme69 depends on how much money you are willing to spend and how much time you are willing to devote to trying to get really good at riding.The new BMW and aprilia have different settings you can use for traction control and power output.and you should not buy an Ducati or Ktm without any experience either. just my 2 cents
