I must say, that was probably the most amazing motorcycle video I have seen yet. Having just traveled to Auckland this past May to see my daughter at the University of Auckland, we touched a smattering of what this amazing country has to offer. About the most remote areas we saw were Piha Beach, Waiheke Island, and the Alexander Farm where the Hobbit and the Lord of the Rings were filmed. Such a beautiful country and after that 15.5 hr. brutal flight from NY, I find myself wanting to return surprisingly. An amazing country which just draws you back....God Bless New Zealand and KTM!
It's an honour to be a part of these Rallye's. What an awesome week, so much work and effort put in by a dedicated team. Brilliantly captured by the Content Team 👏👏👏
Greg, So true. I only got to witness Piha Beach and the Alexander Farm where the Hobbit was filmed, but those vistas and the city of Auckland will be forever etched in my memory..... Greg Ceconi
Awesome, great to see adv bikes used in such differing and exciting terrain. KTM really know how to make an exceptional event. Absolutely thrilled to be doing the rally in Australia this November. Can't wait!
Impressive production nonetheless, but yes, it's intimidating edge of your seat stuff riding footage and less immersive like Adam's productions. I suppose the high intensity edits appeal to some.
What's missing is the pov of a rider. With Adam, he was our eyes through which we engaged in the ride. Now its just a long video of multiple clips. An hour long montage with no anchor.
Great job on this production guys. The ride was incredible and now I know why kiwis are often such great riders. Joey Evans is one of the nicest guys I've ever met and made of carbon steel! Never quit Joey, an incredible story told. Thanks to the guys for helping me pick up the bike in the slippy papa rock and mud a time or three. (Hard to even stand up on that) Cheers mates!
Hello from Auckland! Stoked about this event and wish all the riders best of luck! Remember, the dirt is soft here so don't get bogged in! (Also be advised of the weather, that will definitely give you the shivers ahahaha!)
Too bad Adam isn't narrating these anymore. He was awesome and it was nice to see the regular riders on the trail. As much as I like these marketing videos, it is tiring to mainly watch professional riders doing wheelies and scripted shots.
Something like this is special 👏🏆👌👌 how lucky you are to be able to drive in such magical places💫💫 Total enjoyment to watch and I can only imagine what it's like to drive! Greetings to everyone and good luck 🍀 Ljubo 🖐
You guys really need to bring Adam back. These were once great films but now they've become an hour of B-roll and people saying how many rallies they've been on. Barely any actual trail footage or distinction from day to day. Montage at best.
I was just there in Auckland this past May. Direct flight from JFK and while that flight was brutal, I'll never regret seeing that special country. Just amazing.
I'm sure this must have been an incredible ride, however, as good as the pro riders are I think it would be more enjoyable to see this from the average riders experience, which I'm sure would be most of participants/KTM clients. This format, which is kinda stale, is clearly more of an advertorial style which I think is missing the point. NZ looks amazing though.
I used to look forward to the KTM rally videos - 10 mins of this and I am out. I really liked Adam R’s style. This is like a trailer meets a reality show.
Bloody proud to be be a kiwi when I watch this. We are lucky to call this home!
you are lucky - what a place
Looks like amazing riding. 1090 Ktm guy in Canada
Yes you are. Just an amazing country and the people are among the most friendly and welcoming in the world.
Would you know how the international riders join? Do they ship their bikes in or do they rent bikes? Would like to join the next one!
As well you should be! I'd give anything to live there!!! I will visit soon I hope!

Enjoyed every second of watching this! Great movie, landscapes are out of this world!
Great video and such a beautiful country! On my bucket list for sure.

I hope that one day, you bring back Adam. The new editing style makes it very hard to engage. It's basically one hour at the pace of a trailer.:/
You bet me to it! There's nothing like Adam's story telling.
Impressive production nonetheless, but yes, it's intimidating edge of your seat stuff riding footage and less immersive like Adam's productions. I suppose the high intensity edits appeal to some.
And that's the reason I skip the parts that aren't the actual riding on these KTM advertorials. Adam's films are much more engaging.

Agree bring back #ARiemann1 @MotologyFilms
Can't wait! The pinnacle of adventure motorcycle films.
Great job on this production guys. The ride was incredible and now I know why kiwis are often such great riders.

Fantastic!!! We need one in BRASIL!
Epic bro, sweet as! Awesome production
Massive thanks to Renny and Liam for the routes, Birchy, Sprocket, Huffy and Lewie as sweeps for saving me more than once. Absolutely epic week!
Would you know how the international riders join? Do they ship their bikes in or do they rent bikes? Would like to join the next one!
Epic, makes me want a KTM
Funny...I'm riding a 2021 MV Agusta Turismo Veloce which is pretty much owned by KTM now. My next bike will be a KTM proper after watching this video!

fantastic to hear Joey Evens, true SA

Amazing production. I loved the drone work. Very professional.
Ya, this one looks like the best of the best man 😎👌🏻

I enjoyed the vid but while watching it definitely thought "this is waaay too cinematic" just needs more raw footage
Fantastic production and great event 👍
OMG I love kTm😁.
Nice to see guys keeping a decent pace, ride on! Wish I was there😢
Fascinante todos los videos soy un fiel seguidor de todos ustedes ❤❤ !!
Looks like this year the bike of choice for most riders was the 890
Such an awesome event! I'm in awe (did I use that right?😂) of the places you're riding!!
New here and the enduro world
Is it such a cross section of surfaces and grip. That no matter the tyre choice the real skills shine through/or luck
It's so awsome.
Just seen 90k very very pity 🙄 give Oscar this rally 🎉🎉🎉
Is there a video of Chris’ 5000km SI run?
beautiful
I must say I am very jealous from America 😅
I was just there in Auckland this past May. Direct flight from JFK and while that flight was brutal, I'll never regret seeing that special country. Just amazing.
Epic!
Cheese Camshaft Tours! I hope the KTMs don't fail mid tour.
Dream Bike KTM

NZ looks amazing though.
Ready to replace cams!
🔥👌👌👌👌👌
These riders have definitely never heard the "leave no trace" philosophy. Geez it's just wheelspin and roost everywhere.
Bring ariemaan ❤
Did they put new cams in every hour?
hahaha i was wondering this same thing
You guys missed a huge opportunity to have the LOTR characters ride through the course.
I used to look forward to the KTM rally videos - 10 mins of this and I am out. I really liked Adam R’s style. This is like a trailer meets a reality show.
Are you kidding me? Both are great videos!
Cuando toca América del Sur ?? Quiero apuntarme
oh look master ... Orcses on bikeses
How does a KT500exc-f not qualify?????
Curious what a rally like this cost.
How many spare cams does it take to make it through the whole rally?
Aren't those the bikes suffering from engine failure due to Cam shaft failures?
Song? 27:25
Gonzalez Nancy Martinez Jennifer Lewis Shirley
Only 890’s jajaja
Gonzalez Jason Hall Steven Lopez Joseph
Cheese cam
Just a marketing video now. Not something that tells a story for the normal riders to identify with.
Boring
Boring with no riding footage .. GET RIEMANN back these have sucked since he stopped .
If your gonna promote riding in our fair land, at least use a kiwi to narrate, ffs
