Cliff Racer II - The Return To Pikes Peak - Cycle News

KTM USA, Cycle News and Rennie Scaysbrook return to Pikes Peak to tackle the biggest mountain in motorcycling.
After the disappointment of 2016, does this edition end on a happier note in this brilliant short film, shot and edited by Cole Kirkpatrick?

Appreciate youre reminding of Stefan Bellof. He was probably one of the greatest driver talents of all times. Greetings from Germany Rennie. Stay safe and healthy in these times.

Wonder how well the 2020 will do? This is concrete proof that the KTM 1290 SDR is the best street bike, not only the torque the comfort is on another level.

It was cool to watch his performance last year, the daily diaries from this year and now this piece.
Thanks for the awesome videos!

[@JDoubleOP]

Which bellypan do you use?

[@cyclenews]

It's from Airtech Streamlining in San Diego. www.airtech-streamlining.com/

[@onlyoneromeo]

Stupid question of the day. How come you guys use this bike instead of an rc8?

[@cyclenews]

The Pikes Peak rules dictate that you have to use a motorcycle with a one-piece handlebar as standard, so no superbike allowed. -- Rennie

[@onlyoneromeo]

Cycle News oh OK. Curious what the purpose is of that rule?

[@cyclenews]

Some have said it was a reaction to some accidents a few years back, but we're not 100 percent sure why the rule was implemented as the bikes have gone faster since they put the rule in place.

[@userer4579]

WTF was that industrial noise in the background of the video?

[@ardvarkkkkk1]

Ramus Sumar
That was intentionally put there to annoy the shit out of you. Worked on me.

[@robertsvulpes]

Annoying music doing the race
