  • Full and uncut ride on the East side of Stelvio Pass. No music, just pure engine sound. First time riding on this road, with +20kg luggage on each bike.
    Action starts at 2:20 and gets more intense from 7:20.

    I had 2 years XT 660, now I'm owner of 690 SMC. It's just stupid war which is better. Ask yourself what you need. The fact is that KTM is much lighter and more powerfull, with many parts apdapted for hard riding. It's bike for fun and I love it. XT is good for long snappy trips with even heavy luggage. And the most important - both seems to be reliable.

  • @Ozmeister666
    @Ozmeister666 Před 9 lety +20

    You guys certainly are wicked fast, but still there were some potentially dangerous moments in there and you seem to lack some basic skills like blipping on downshifts. I wish you nice rides and keep it safe! (Your mate couldve easily died there, really lucky)

    • @RidingtheAlps
      @RidingtheAlps  Před 9 lety +8

      Thanks! blipping on downshifts is very unusual (and kind of useless) on a supermoto since it's relatively easy to just back it in... and it's way more fun that way!

    • @valebliz
      @valebliz Před 9 lety +2

      RidingtheAlps Uhm, kinda true what you say. I'm so accustomed to blipping i end up doing it on my duke 690 too... but kinda useless with a slipper clutch on that kind of bike.

    • @bokelund9176
      @bokelund9176 Před 9 lety +5

      Schleberger The reason they dont do any "blipping" on the downshifts is probably so the rear tire will spin slower than the ground wich will make it easyer to back it in :)
      If you blipp the throttle your downshifts will be more smooth and may not cause the rear tire to spin slower than the ground and will not help you back it in

    • @zeusvogel2005

    • @RidingtheAlps
      @RidingtheAlps  Před 10 lety +2

      guso712 No, this one is full power. The KTM in front of the XTX is 34hp though. When riding such a steep downhill pass power does not matter at all, and the XTX weight is not a handicap here. Even though it is less powerful, it has a nice torque and a smaller sprocket is mounted. Engine is not tuned, the rest is just a matter of how hard you are pushing it.
      PS: if you watch our uphill video (KTM 690 SMC vs Yamaha 660 XTX on Stelvio Pass [raw]) you will see that the KTM rider is clearly not pushing it behind the Yam, because when riding uphill power and weight does matter.

    • @mattiacirongianfrandadduzi4540
      @mattiacirongianfrandadduzi4540 Před 9 lety

      È anche vero che la differenza è di 15 cavalli!! Nonché differenza che si riesce a notare in strade con meno tornanti o curve strette. Poi l'erogazione della potenza della yamaha si sviluppa tutta in basso al contrario del ktm che ha una coppia distribuita su tutti i giri, questo permette al xt di competere con moto ben più prestazionali in questi tipi di strade!

Come comodità devo dare qualche punto in più alla mia, questo è vero, come è anche vero che un pò di cattiveria in più non le farebbe male!! Comunque ho messo un pignone da 14 denti e ho guadagnato un bel po in ripresa ma non di certo paragonabile al ktm!

    Please tell the Yamaha-driver to stop putting his foot to the side during turns, if he's a little bit faster, does that and touches the concrete he will hurt himself...
    The proper way is to put the foot parallel to the motorcycle.
