"DOT is a *dinosaur,* we just dropped an *asteroid* of a video on it, in hopes of pushing the outdated standard towards *extinction* "
You put a lot more thought into your scripts than I pick up on.
Emrys dude wow
DOT stands for "department of transportation" here in the states. And yes it's an outdated extension of bureaucratic inefficiency, you'd come to expect from a United states government agency.

This is honestly the best motorcycle channel on TH-cam. EASY!

This Channel shits on Yammie noob
Best channel on the internet for motorcycles
@@n.jurenic yammie sounds like a drama channel.
Yammie is great, but the content at F9 is just in a different league. I wouldn't compare them, but I still enjoy both.
Gortex - Stay dry, Hypertex - Stay kinda dry, waterproof - define dry.... made me lol
Watched this, checked my gear... I'm going to die.
This was three years ago.
Just checking in.
You ok bud?
I think he's not
I think he happily upgraded and didn't need to watch any more of these videos :)
Rest in pieces buddy
R.I.P.😓
This has to be ONE OF THE BEST videos of the channel. Incredibly informative. Thanks to the F9 team for this.
KEEPING IT REAL has a whole different meaning with this guys..
Great work guys. You just made it easier for new riders to sift through the jargon. Love your videos.
Yep. It was very well done. Happy subscriber here.
I also agree!
Excellent video. Sifting through the b.s. the companies tell us to what really counts. Hats off to you. I guess Canadians are more honest and tell it like it is, aaaaaa.
Seriously, I love these guys
"Pounds and ounces if they are annoying" :)) One of the best lines ever

I am a mechanical engineer, and I 100% agree with you. The information you gave on different kinds of plastic (like thermoplastic, I specially liked that one) is as accurate as one can give. Please keep making informative videos, you and your team are really good at it.
Well I am a super mechanical engineer and I 100% disagree.
I'm gay
And nobody sponsored FortNine ever again.
They never did anyway. ~RF9
Hey, if manufacturers can't take criticism and adjust appropriately & TRUTHFULLY, then they don't deserve to be in business. Thank God for people like Ryan and FortNine.
@@FortNine and thats what we want , thats how we get good information and not what the markerting dept wants them to say
That should be normal. Sad it isn't.
As I understand, it's the whole point, the channel is unsponsored except by the store itself (FortNine).
I’ve been a motorcycle cop and instructor for many years and this is one of the best videos out there.
@Ken Mason huh
@Ken Mason ah ok got it. Almost flew off a GSXR 600 today on I95 from a pothole
@Ken Mason wild!
@Ken Mason by saying “highway bars”, do you mean “crash bars” ? Assuming so, I can’t understand how they would have prevented the PD officer from getting “launched” after T-boning a car …. you’d expect him to get launched from that sort of impact with, or without highway (crash) bars.
@Ken Mason Highway bars and crash bars are the same thing. Their main use as far as I know is to create a buffer between the tarmac and the motorcycle so that a rider's leg won't get crushed under the bike. So I think you might have been right in saying that it was a budget justification, because they won't stop you from getting launched like a hot potato when you hit something hard enough to travel 60ft lol
I could be wrong though, I'm no expert
An eye opener, a red pill moment, no Bs
That's how real videos should be more detailed and analytical
Keep up the good work👌👌👌👌
8:36 a correction and an important addition for anyone getting deep into standards. For high level protection look to see if the clothing meets EN13595 either in part of in full. Clothing made to prEN17092 has different levels starting at B (no impact protectors) A (same as B with impact protectors added), AA - medium level protection - and AAA which is high level. Even though prEN17092 is a newer standard, even AAA prEN17092(pr refers to it being a provisional standard) is (currently) inferior compared to EN13595. For the best, look for fully certified EN13595 clothing.
I can’t believe a motorcycle gear website makes this content. Actual education that informs the consumer. Amazing!
Ollie K. What's not to believe? They're just a retailer, whatever you choose to buy, you're still buying. Plus it makes them look good.
@@gwot I think they're just trying to make the customers buy most expensive stuff. And i dont deny that all this kevlar, carbon, goretex etc. is good, but is it SO good or SO better than others to pay such a money for it?
To explain clearly what I mean: for example a jacket with goretex membrane (removable) costs 50% more than jacket with other membrane and 3x more than jacket with no membrane (european market). Instead you can use a rainsuit for 1/10 price of a goretex insert, which is good, but really not so perfect (practicaly tested). So if u have an unlimited budget to spend for that fancy fabrics it's ok, but otherwise...

Your intelligence, wit, research and sense of humor are appreciated in watching your videos. This channel remains unmatched in quality
This is guy is alton brown of food network’s “good eats” but for motorcycles.

Angel Lawless beat analogy ever
Angel Lawless that show actually slaps
This is very apt.
Theese videos are an invaluable resource for riders. Love the content.
Great video! You guys do top notch stuff!
MCrider Hi MCrider I see you watch FortNine as well! love your channel too, you've been a huge help to me as a returning rider!
@MCrider I can say the same for you.. 🙂
Apparently only the best watch the best ;P
There's an endorsement:-) love both u guys videos
MCrider, FortNine and CycleCruza. These 3 are the best
“Onions,parfaits, and shrek” best channel ever
Period
I’ve worked in the powersports industry for well over 16 years and this is hands down one of the better videos I’ve ever seen, possibly the best. I’ll be sharing this with beginner riders to give them the tools they need to make choices on their own and not rely on reviews alone.
Well I worked in powersports for well over 17 years and this is hands down one of the worst videos I've seen
I bet the dislikes are from motorcycle gear manufacturers hahaha awesome content!
You're probably right.
They're all the people who have the helmet he was making fun of... and have been telling all their friends "It's the best helmet made... and only paid $99 for it!! I'm a REALLY smart shopper!"
Just the bad ones
The dislikes are from genuinely informed people.. “Ece offers less impact attenuation” That is misleading. Ece helmets are more flexible/less hard then Snell helmets (Snell mandate higher tolerances for penetration and thus require thicker and harder shells to pass), these means Snell helmets are heavier and stiffer, making Ece helmets lighter and softer, more flexible, meaning they ATTENUATE impacts much better, this leads researchers to believe Ece helmets are better because they absorb and attenuate impact forces to the brain, which statistically account to the majority of head injuries to riders, unlike penetrating sharp objects that account to a very little percentage of injuries, which makes Snell helmets a little out of focus, because in trying to be very strict about making hard and thick shells, they have made their helmets heavier (which is not good in a crash) and harder (which attenuate less impacts and transmit more forces to the brain). Fourtnine should get informed before misleading people
Right I was wondering the same, cause how can anyone be salty for safety! I agreed
This is bloody well done. I've always enjoyed the work from Ryan and the team behind these. Nice sets, good on the road audio, good editing, well written, nicely shot and Ryan presents really well. But this is just so informative, useful and specifically engaging. As someone that analyzes social media for retail I have to say this sets the bar high. Fantastic job guys.
Thank you so much for all the information and no fluff. This is the reason I keep coming back to your channel.
Damn, this guy does his homework and presents great content! Thank you!
You're continuing to raise the bar much higher with every video! Keep it going 👌👌
Been subbed for a while and always enjoy your videos Ryan but I feel like recently they have somehow been getting better and better. You tell it like it is with a unique style and humour that makes it both informative and entertaining. Keep up the great work brother.
Very well researched (more than one could say for some!), highly informative (more than one could say for some!) and superbly presented (more than one could say for some!). Thanks, Ryan, I love your videos and I look forward to your continuing motorcycle rider assistance.
Well done ! I enjoy your videos a lot. Just my two cents about helmets : Poly-carbonate is actually a very good compromise. The "thermoplastic" is really special as it wont crack under shock but rather bend and absorb lot of impact energy. The real drawback is that it is a bit chemical sensitive and mostly it cracks under long time stress. It means if something is bolted too tight or riveted to the PC shell it may develop cracks and may already be broken on the day it has to protect your head. As any plastic stuff the poly-carbonate is not "bad" itself but has to be used by skilled helmet maker.
Another item that may make a significant difference is the "noise" in the helmet. No helmet is perfectly sound proof (fortunately) but some are badly noisy. A perfect helmet should allow external noise in (to a degree) but mostly NOT ADD any more.
Sorry if my English is not perfect but it is not my mother laguage
Bold move, this is one of the most informative videos out there next to the dot one, I specially liked the glossary and textile information.
You guys just keep on giving, congratulations.
They should add this to motorcycle safety courses. It's informative, well-made, and so easy to pay attention to that I watched it for fun in my leisure time.
I recently got my rider learner's permit - had to do a couple of days of very light instruction. These videos should be required viewing. Seriously, mate, you're doing incredible work here and actually helping to keep people safe. Thank you!
I've been watching a number of videos, and I think this is the one channel I'll be growing with for quite a while. Others aren't breaking down topics like this all around the knowledge needed to make informed decisions at the start of motorcycling- the time when informed decision making can save money and life.
So, great job on this channel.
MotoJitsu is also good for just straight quality of instruction on safe riding.
This video should be played every single time before you hit eBay, Amazon or shopping malls.
You're so Professional. Like watching a show on TV.
Even better than tv shows.
Ryan’s videos are not only informative, but very entertaining. Love them. Thanks for posting!
Man.. hats off to the quality videos you share! Extremely informative and creative too in how you present. Keep up the good work, and thanks for helping us be more safe while riding!
Ryan, I have been periodically following your channel for a couple of years, and the research you put into your presentations is wonderfully useful, helpful and deeply appreciated! Thank you!
Can you guys make more motorcycle reviews? Love those
Yep, we're working on it. ~RF9
royal enfield himalayan pleeeaaasssee! Seems like a lot of bike for the price but would like to see it put through your paces
no no royal enfields. They'd never leave the parking lot without losing some nuts and bolts.

Hey Ryan, thanks for this great video on what to look for in mc gear. I don’t understand it all but I took copious notes and can certainly revisit the vid when needed. So glad to have found your channel. Really enjoying your vids.
This channel is underrated. I can just imagine how much effort goes into making these videos, and they're all great!
As always: Well written, well produced, extremely informative, and funny :).
The only regret I have about subbing is that I didn't do it sooner.
P.S.: Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Teach a man to fish and he will sit in a boat and drink beer all day.
*That's* the saying I was looking for. ~RF9
I prefer the NewsRadio version: " he spends all his time in the basement tying flys and neglecting his personal hygiene." Advice given to a Canadian, no less (Phil Hartman) th-cam.com/video/dPy6lYeH1XQ/w-d-xo.html
Dammit, Bloody... I've told you to stop stalking me when I'm out on the boat! Around town is fine...
I seriously don’t understand how people like this guy don’t have millions of subscribers. Great video.
Thanks! I had enough of cruising around with a shopping bag on my head and wanted to get into buying an helmet. Great info!
Hey man, really appreciate your videos. They are very informative. I'm curious if you have done one or plan to do one on how to stay cool while riding. You mentioned vents in this one which sounds good but can actually make you hotter. Do you think this is a topic you light dive further into?
This is the most informative, concise and excellent videos I've seen in a long time. I will be checking out your other videos, thank you
"sneaky bastards!" LOL this is my favorite youtube channel, keep up the great work!
Absolutely amazing. Best video I have seen on TH-cam irrespective of topic. Well done. You have great delivery style. Editing is top notch.
Just found this channel and I love the way you guys style your videos. Super easy and fun to watch.
Wish I had found this before I bought my brand new DOT rated helmet fml
everyone has purchased a junk helmet...that's how you learn...go for a $200 plus helmet and check the specs. i like scorpion bc they are cheap and well rated... Thank you for wearing a helmet these guys in the u.s. wear baseball caps....so dumb. I like my track rated helmet
Even a DOT helmet is better than no helmet 🤷♂️
@@208Concepts It's my only consolation ;(
"Define dry" kills me every time xD
Dude, great video! I used to work for a rock climbing gear importer and we went way down the helmet ratings, and one of the key problems we found was the ratings don't get updated, resulting in out of date spec requirements. Seems we're not alone!
My buddy suggested you as a motorcycle safety guide.
And he was correct. I've watched quit a few people, but you put so much info into your videos.
So much, in such a small time frame.
Best motorcycle content creator on the tube
Lol this channel is so well written and executed. You guys impress the heck out of me everytime.
Love how you make educational vids interesting and watchable - thank you.
Man. I love you. Keep up the good work. I’ve been tuning in here and there since I taught myself to ride a bike during lockdown 2020. Nerd up. Let’s go!
Thank you for the very useful helmet crash course! Now I know what to look out for when I buy my next helmet. Love your channel!
I feel like I’m at school listening to science talk. But I’m actually listening!!!!!!
An additional note on CE labels... There's also a "China Export" label that is deliberately similar to the actual CE Label.
Dude I swear the Chinese are ruining EVERYTHING !!
I've read that it's actually a myth. That there's no official China Export mark but there's plenty of products that mark themselves CE while they're not or products that misuse the mark so that the spacing is wrong.
This is one of my favorite videos of your channel, guys! I've watched it several times actually. Keep up the good work!
You make learning fun!!!Seriously great info and love your delivery.
This guy always nails it! Has some funny 1 liners, super informative and just a straight PIMP! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!
Please show how garments are really tested for CE certifacation. That woud be very informative. Keep up the good work.
CE garments will be tested with the Darmstadt machine moving forward. It spins at a certain speed (~25 - 120km/h depending on the rating level) then drops the fabric samples onto concrete until they stop. The point of wear-through is detected by an electric current running through a metal plate behind each fabric sample, I believe. It's pretty cool! Looks like this: www.bennetts.co.uk/-/media/default-website/2018/march/motorcycle-clothing-the-ce-approval-law-explained/darmstadt-machine.ashx?h=772&w=740&la=en&hash=8167DA34A91B956677EC0A4DF11FB65468E194DA ~RF9
Even though this was 5 years ago, I cannot express how much your videos helped me with being a much more smart and safer motorcycle rider. Thanks for these!
Ok, that was great. I pour over reviews and testing and I still learned a few things. And you have an entertaining but straight to the point presentation style. Subscribed.
I come back to this review Everytime I am shopping for gear
just subbed. very impressed by the well-spoken wealth of knowledge
I love your honest info about all these stuff man.subscribed!
This must be one of the best channels on youtube!
Love the no bs, in your face aproach! :D
*subbed*
One of your best videos, Ryan. Thanks for the lesson.
You my friend just made me favorite a TH-cam video. Haven't done that since 09'.
Came across your channel today and I absolutely love it!!! Keep it up!
As someone completely new to the world of motorcycles, I really appreciate the frank language you use in this video. A lot of people like to equivocate when talking about this sort of thing and it just makes it harder to get good information.
Never feel like I wasted my time watching your stuff - thanks - you rock
daaamn dude, you've been making some amazingly good videos lately! keep it up, please! :)
Absolutely great video. I'm looking to getting my first bike but first I'm trying to arm myself with as much knowledge as possible.
Just discovered your channel, very much enjoying it, thank you for your service.
Thanks Ryan/FortNine for the great informative video.
Really good stuff! One topic on helmets that you didn't cover: MIPS (multi-directional impact protection system), basically a layer letting the inner and outer shell move independently in a crash, with the aim to reduce rotational forces. It seems like a great idea, but does it work? What should people look for or avoid in a MIPS helmet?
i think mips has been covered in his other video
search for 'What's Inside the Best Motorcycle Helmets of 2021?'
I prefer NIPS
Love your videos! Please keep doing them! Cheers from Denmark!
I love your content, dude! It's like when I was little and used to watch PBS and I'd learn stuff and not get bored while watching it.
You’re my hero, Ryan! You rock, young dude!!
Btw, here’s how the expression goes: “if we teach them how to fish, maybe they’ll be able to pay their mortgage on time”.
This is the best video I've ever seen on TH-cam.
Great video - thanks! Getting back into two wheels after many years away. Just subscribed. Love the no bullshit approach.
Fantastic info and video. Here in Brazil there are so many crappy options and they definitely love to trick costumers into buying "CE" stuff. Dude, I'm certainly spreading the word for this video, it should have at least 10 million views because this helps save lives.
When it comes to helmets, I have to have ECE by law, but I go by a helmets Sharp rating.
Same here
Very informative! Thanks RF9!!
Thanks for all the helmet and protective gear info. Now I get It. You're the only one I've come across teaching this stuff with all the details.
Thanks for all the info! I’ve been watching your videos for about two months now I really enjoy the education that I’m getting and I appreciate the research that you have done thumbs up very helpful
i cant imagine how hard and long time you have to dispend to do this video! great stuff!
Give a man a fish and he will eat for one day.
Give a man a fishing rod, and he will break it into wood and sell it for a fish.
Or meth, in which case, he'll no longer be hungry.
Don't teach a man to fish and you can eat fir a life time. He's a grown man. Fishing isnt hard.
Give a man a fish, and he'll probably tell people he caught it, and sell tickets to the place where.
Damo: That there's an entrepreneur!

Second commentary here. Want to thank Fortnine for making a change in my motorcyclist life. The teachings about gear safety and test standards really made a difference.
And I have a suggestion for a video. To clarify suspension types, adjustment and settings on different terrains.
Big thanks keep up the videos eill always have my thumbs up.
Great video. Can't remember most of it, but will review it whenever I need to buy or replace any of my gear.
You are beyond words of generosity and intelligence. Thank you
Mooze Ahmad , I keep thinking the same thing. I want to give back and show appreciation with my patronage but being in the US, I keep getting rerouted to RevZilla lol.
Great guide for those beginning to buy good gear! The CE certification topic is a messy one due to some manufacturers (not all) misguiding consumers with what is CE certified and not. A classic example is the use of those generic soft pads being marketed as "CE armor" or "CE tested"; such pads are NOT certified to the EN 1621 sub standards. If thou shalt allow me, here's our guide to all CE certifications: www.mcgearhub.com/motorcycle-gear-guide-frequently-asked-questions/#Motorcycle-gear-product-any-good Disclosure: it's our site & the guide is based in our industry's deep experience.
