We are extremely proud to be a part of Chris' record breaking run and being allowed to help with the tuning of this bike with our stage 5 intake kit. Chris is one mellow dude, but get him on two wheels and he is an animal. Congratulations Chris and Renni!
My dad was Operations manager for Pikes Peak. I grew up on this mountain and have seen every race since 85. It's CRAZY how far the race has come and the limits pushed. In the 90s, the thought of a motorcycle breaking the 10:00 barrier was not even a thought
The total athlete and athleticism required to perform at this level is so much appreciated. Like watching any elite athlete. Pure fluidity and grace. Without a substantial dose of harnessing of the giant huevos can only get in the way and get you hurt. Great job Chris, Renni, KTM and the entire support crew.
Wow, 10 minutes of awesome hill climb video takes quite a lot op prep work :D (Which given the steep competition, should not really be that surprising)

I couldn't believe the amount of anxiety I had watching that bike running unstable at that corner. So glad he kept it together. What an amazing rider.

Bring back the 690SMC!
Glad he didn't lay it down!

i should try an aprilia on that route ! looks like a normal south african road lol
Aprilia wouldn't make it to the top without breaking down.
Bro superbikes are only good at race track..you can't accelerate in corners using superbikes you will die bro 😂
Spot me 10 minutes on my old DS 1000S Multi and let's go title for title LOL
KTM does marketing better than Apple!
