Had a crash two months ago, I've now got pins in my foot and cant walk for 6 months minimum, this was with wearing boots. If I had my converse on which I usually ride in I would of lost my foot. Please wear boots
Damn dude.
Hope you’re ok.
I was on my motorcycle 3 months ago and got rear ended by a car.
Luckily I had on all my protective gear, so only received muscle tissue damage... and thankfully no broken bones.
If it was t for the gear, it would’ve been much worse.
I agree with you....
Wear boots ... and all the correct gear with body armour.
#dontBeASquid
Can't afford :(
I do wear my leather boots which go couple of inches above my ankle.
Planning to buy elbow & knee guard separate.
M K
That’s ok.
One piece at a time.
And before you know it, you’ll have your full gear 😊
@@RexyFan agree :p
@@MK-xn6qx dude trust me, i have absolutely no money. I cant work, i cant ride, I cant go the gym. There are friends I havent seen. My relationship is going through a struggle, a crash doesnt just affect your body it affects your whole life, due to this accident I've already lost approximately £10000, with loss of my bike and earnings, this is without the damage it does mentally. Just remember this when you say you cant afford boots. Second hand ones it doesn't t matter bro. Stay protected
Riding in sneakers are bad.
While in Asia : "flip flops & sandles are good enough"
In Pakistan, People make fun of you if you wear helmet and proper gear.. we're fucking retarded
Swaggy Ghosty same thing in Mexico lol
@@swaggyghosty9222 In poorer countries people usually don't buy bikes for recreational reasons. Plus say what you want, but you do have the freedom to not wear a helmet, while in the dying west, obsessed with safety and political correctness, in some places you don't even see kids playing outside by themselves, God forbid sending a 10 year old to school half a mile away on it's own.
The average speed is much much much lower
@@tomekkruk6147 I have a 10 and 6 year old girls and I wouldn't send them in this day and age. We've had three people busted trying to pickup little kids in the last month in the area.
My neighbors cat did not appreciate being stuffed in my helmet.
Lol
Lol
Best part of the video 🤣
i don’t even own a bike but the camera work was absolutely lovely
Lol
Well, the shirt tuck method is a life saver and have used it already. But instead of a redbull had to carry my laptop 😂😂
That sounds risky! 😂
Im curious how this guy fit his laptop from neck hole of the shirt?? 😂😂😂😂😂
@@sudilshrestha9509 haha,
Laptop first, from the bottom of the shirt and then tucked in the shirt.
When there is a will there's a way.😝
I used that trick to bring all the papers of the new bike at home😂
(while using the old one. Savageee)
Yeah this one is genius.
Two bucket method should be standard when cleaning any vehicles to be fair, prevents dirt grabbing your mitten
I used a hose 🤷🏼♂️
I detailed cars for a few years. Add an extra step that is totally worth it. Rinse the vehicle down with a hose first, top to bottom. Gets the majority of the grit off first, then proceeded with the two bucket method.
@@ChimzMT09 I snow foam, rinse, two bucket with dirt guard and rinse again then give it a shimmy shammy.
I've been doing this for my muscle cars for many years. Carried it over to my new ADV bike now, and it works even better, due to excessive mud, dirt and debris. It's amazing how dirty the bottom of your rinse bucket is compared to wash bucket :-) Awesome awesome tip!
Brush and a hose.
Love the tie down eye bolts one. Been riding for almost 40 years and never heard of that one.
@@joshuawhite1692 Plus I would put at least a properly sized electrical heatshrink tube over the threaded bar...
Keep one eyebolt on the bar permanently with thread lock, the other eyebolt won't loosen because the tiedowns stop the eyebolt rotating. A sleeve of plastic stops scratching. An old piece of garden hose glued on would work.
Don't do it!! When the suspension moves it will loosen! It moves indipendantly from the bike! Not safe!
@@lukephilpot5660 no it won't, if you strap it down properly you compress the suspension, it then doesn't move it's attached firmly to the trailer.
The tie downs will keep both of the eye bolts from turning
The threaded rod and I hook is a good idea, you can always line it with a rubber hose if you're worried about the threads cutting into the axle
Or Plastidip
Or you can use a piece of electrical heat shrink sleeve
Also the distance between the axel and rest of the bike changes all the time as suspension compress.
I don't want tips, i want your bike.
Buy one
@@TheAngusGao get one free
I don't know why you came up on my suggested list but young man I had a good laugh. I am old enough to be your grandpa and I've washed my bike twice since you were born. We both look like we've been places and we're young enough to get back again. Good one mate regards Mark
That's the spirit man.
Probably my favourite comment so far lol
So your just rolling around in a dirty bike? Yeah, not sure if your aware, but dirt and grime, clog stuff bro.
@@Alpha-move Only if you let it get in. Since I left that comment I've changed the oil and filter 9 times the air filter has been washed or replaced 5 times I've worn out 3 tyres and a chain and sprockets set. 20 thousand k's in some of the harshest conditions, trouble free, require meticulous attention to maintenance . Really shiny comes second in my book.
@@Alpha-move I would be 80 years old of me rather than 20 years old of you -Eminem
1:20 I thought he was going to put the can .... somewhere else
Me Too
I carry a small gym backpack that I fold up under my seat just in case I need to stop and pick up some groceries. I've never had scratches while washing my bikes and the insects hit at autobahn speeds. Servus from Germany!
Grip hack: WD40. It will disperse moisture, but provide temporary lube for slipping the grip on. After a few minutes, it's good to go. Also, to get the grip off, use an air compressor with a short 1/4" copper tubing on the end of a nozzle. Insert it into the grip end or next to the switch housing and then the grip will puff up and easily slide right off.
I feel like a total idiot when watching the shoe lace tip. I've been sticking the lace inside the shoe and its very uncomfortable. Definitely gonna try that one out the next time I ride
Instead of over, go under the laces, we did that back in the school years to hide them.
So I'm not the only one 😅😅😅😅
Or just fold your sock over your laces.
Or just wear boots and don’t be a squid
I can't believe none of you have heard of a square knot. shorten your laces enough to when you tie the knot it is toward the end of the laces and you have nothing dangling all tied. Or if you have high tops like converse wrap the laces around your ankle and then tie the knot to take up the extra lace. or wear boots
"I know² riding in sneakers is a bad idea"
Me casually riding ninja 300 with a flip flop everytime i went to 7 eleven
Or everywhere in India.
@@thumpertorque_ Exactly! lol
@@thumpertorque_ haha yeah I ride in flipflops or sneakers everytime even in long trips to himachal mountains. Didn't even know sneakers were bad.
You live a dangerous life i see 😂
@@rasmuskoppel8211 aint gonna learn until i experienced it myself lol
Eye bolts with the threaded rod through the axle for tie down points is a great idea plus it provides a minor industrial / steam punk motif.
Mmm mod it with a smooth bar and thread it from there I'll be scared I'll scuff up the axles and shrink wrap it
Thank god!! That shoe lace hack seems to be a life saving tip atleast for me
I have used that t-shirt trick for years now, it comes real handy when you don't have a bag🤘🏻
When removing the clutch pack, you should at least mark the positions. The steel plate and friction plates are most probably built in to minimize overall high and low sections due to manufacturing tolerances and therefore increasing the clutch's performance and behaviour during slip. On a bike, the comfort issues may be much less than in a car, but still it would be advantageous.
what Oil have to used to do the job?
@@ovall1542 the same stuff you use to lubricate the the engine.
On older bikes when the clutch got grabby I used to mix up the positions on purpose. I would even alternate spinning the metal plates backward. This would end up expanding the engagement point softening it up a bit and that got rid of the grabby feeling. MFR's got wise to this and started making different thickness plates so now they go in a certain order. Thats great when it is new to soften the engagement point but later you can be stuck. The basket gets worn to that pattern so now you can try the oil trick but if it just wont go away it might need a new baskket.
5:22 - That sound reminded me of the nights with my first love on my old, crappy bed.
A little bit of rubbing alcohol in a grip also makes fitting it, a breeze.
Even water works well
You can also put the new rubber grips in to a bowl of boiling water for a small period of time. The rubber will expand a little bit which makes it easier to put them on the handlebar. Just remember not to burn yourself while trying to get the grips out of the water.
But will it smell handsome?
We always do that cuz it’s super easy to put on, almost like oil and then it evaporates then it sits
4:07 Kill a cat & skin it..... Humourous thought 🤣🤣🤣
The shoelace trick is gold, I used to tape mine.
Fiber grip paste is one of the best solutions ive found for the GoPro drift issue. Works wonders.
Riding for over 32 years now ... and I learned something new :) Good video, well edited.
Dude, you’re legend. What a nice, entertaining and soft to watch video bro...
The rod/ring bolt to carry the bike and the GoPro mount sanded was the cherry on top in this vid. Thanks rips!
This is LEGIT the only motorcycle HACKS video that actually talks about the actually required stuffs. This was so helpful that I actually downloaded the video and saved it to my phone for references.
Bro. Your videos are great. Keep em coming. As a rider here in NZ, I enjoy watching the tips, tricks and stories. Much appreciated!!
Love from South Africa❤️❤️❤️ keep up the great videos. I'm one of the OG subscribers and I can see the improvement in editing. Those water sound effects on the bucket were on point👌
I tie my laces on my sneakers under the tounge, looks cleaner and no issues with the loops as they are hidden
7:07 first thing that caught my eye... the exact same styling wax i use for my hair :)
6:57 but what will you do when you want to replace them? 🤣🤣😂. I mean it’s hairspray it’s going to dry
Love your vids, dude. Merry Christmas!
Finally i record my voice without noise 😻 thnx dude 😁
I honestly love the moto community so much, this video was so great and just reading the comments has my spirit up. I’m too young for a bike now but you bet when I get my hands on one I’m going to have a ball.
Awesome job on the Video. My hack I use, I put magnets on my bolt for my oil drain. Catches nasty contaminates. AND helps change lights in case my bike doesn't have enough metal to trigger the lights.
I appreciate the i-bolt trick my brother...
Thanks!
My scooter can only do 52 mph. I don't know why I am watching this.
😂😂😂
52 mph is much
Lol
@@priyadarshimandal why do you want to drive on a higway with a moped. They're build do drive slow. And when you're feeling powerless uphill that's normal ;). Won't go away with a 125 ccm bike
52 km/h”
I’ve always tucked my laces behind the tongue, just think it looks clean. Never thought about a lace catching up on the pegs so I think that’s the most useful tip.
where has this gold piece of a channel been all my life??
My favourite is d Red Bull hack 😄
Forever Motolove! Love my own yamaha. Always putting up the good stuff like Delta Parole and others when I am working on her. Moto is life
I love the threaded rod through the axle or swing arm pivot. I am doing that!
Don't use soap on the brake disks if you do this you can contaminate them and your brakes can fail at speed
I used to notice this then the guys at detail garage showed me the magic of Chemical Guys Iron Decon Spray
@@bensonfrancisco7864 An Iron decon spray like Chemical Guys or Iron-X, the most popular in car detailing, it's the best you can do.
Give them a squirt of brake cleaner afterwards and you will be fine
Very ingenious! Yes Shoelace tuck gona try that one. Big Thanks for this entertaining video hacks
The handsome grippy grip handlebar tip was definitely my favorite
the hairspray hand grips trick definitely gonna try..yah i go thru drivethru's all the time and carry it all zipped in my jacket but get the drinks separate bagged then all in 1 bag helps if one of the drinks leaks..thnx good video
Actually outdid my expectations. Liked and subscribed 👍🏼
I've been doing the eye hooks an thread rod for yrs like that an I don't take them out bike saver
The bike sound when you left with the red Bull was dope!
Only halfway through and loving these suggestions. Granted I'll probably never leave my backpack at home but the 2 bucket method is brilliant... even better, i just happen to have 2 buckets
I'm new here...Absolutely incredible editing. Subbed.
For the handle bars, just leave them in a warm bath for a couple of minutes, they will expand and you can leave them on while you wait for them to cool down.
Those laces are still a snag risk, just do what every kid in the early 2000s did and tuck them into the shoe on the right and left side of the shoe tongue. Works and looks good too.
That shirt tuck might be the best one and I’ve never tried it so that should be fun
4:07 Great idea. I will hunt a cat now. hahah
“That’s leaves ur bike smelling Handsome” 😂😂😂 I’m SUBSCRIBING
That first tip on tucking in shoelaces can be used in any situation. I use it all the time from preventing myself from tripping while running.
got a chuckle one the very first one... made me think of one time when I was like 14 getting on my DRZ250 and rode for a hour or so in flip flops.. I can still feel that kick starter on the bottom on my foot if I think about it.
Instead of remove clutch cover, you should slightly bent your bike towards the clutch side and start the bike..It works the same...😎😎
shoe lace hack is the pretty one I liked it.
like the tie down method, was scared to crack a fairing when i picked up my R1 with how i had to strap it down. Here's one I have still yet to hear... Tire puncture kid with a bicycle hand pump I have basically the same bike as you and it all fits inside.
"..but its always liberating riding without a backpack"
ooh, the pleasures of it!!!
Merry Christmas, ATGATT 🎅🎄
For the red bull hack, you have two options:
1- Place the can inside the inner pocket of the jacket.
2-insert the can good from your shoulder to one of the long sleeves of the jacket. For the fifth hack: use tree buckets, not two=soap water has to come off with clean water. And for the bonus hack, you can filter clean your dirty motor oil by draining the used engine lubricant in a container, then use a sponge inside a funnel to separate the burned metal friction residue.
Ahh but you forgot about,
3- insert the can firmly into your rectum
Why three buckets? You use the soap bucket to get the dirt off, and then rinse the soap off with a hose... I've never heard of the "3 bucket method"... rubbing clean water on your paint will leave swirl marks as there's no lubrication (which soap provides)
Please don't comment if you have no experience.
@@ali94hn Read the comment over again if you cannot comprehend what you read.
@@ali94hn not experience he lacks it's a hose. Also, nobody said "rub" clean water, just rinse by squeezing it from the sponge, so don't be snarky eh, aint no need for attitude.
Definitely the RedBull one. I grab those quite often on the way home as a treat
👍
i just got my first bike and really need advices about it. And am soo excited about it 😍
1) For laces I don't want too long I simply cut them, then use a shoe lace lock to tighten and loosen the strings
2) I double knot the laces so they are shorter and less likely to come undone. Depends on how long the laces are to start with though.
No.laces ever get real.leather riding boots
What's that shelf you used for helmet and glove?
The mic trick is my fave. The double bucket is easy to figure out, but I never did. Thanks for the tips
Love the threaded rod hack. Thanks. :)
Whatsup CC 👍🏻 my favourite is definitely the homemade mountain brackets 👌 oh and the scouring pads on the bolts takes me back to my youth when rubbing down corrosion on my bmx spoke wheels 😂😂...... oh where have the years gone!!! 😢 Adam 🇬🇧 oh Merry Christmas 🎄 to you and your family 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Lol I spent way too many hours with BMXs too 😂🙈 hope you have a great Christmas 🎄👍🏻
Bro- to me the best line was “Kill a cat and peel it’s fur 😆” Though I don’t love them, I don’t really intend to peel one too!
Thats ok, there are plenty of ways to skin a cat
Awesome content mate ! Keep up !
For easy hand grip installation, spray windex, push on, windex dries...works with Foosball handle grips too!!!
Why didn't I think of any of this before? 😂👍

That red bull in the shirt 😅
The i-bolt tie down idea is brilliant! thanks!
The sandpaper GoPro hack and the tie down hack are both awesome!
A couple of weeks ago I rode out and spent some of my last few bucks on cereal and sat down to eat. I figured there would be milk in the fridge but there wasn’t. I was so pissed that I had to go back out in the sub-40° temp and rain that I rushed out of the house and forgot my bookbag and didn’t realize until I already bought a quart of milk. So I had to put that down my shirt. The woman in the parking spot next to me died of laughter while I was fuming mad lol.
I always have a couple of good lengths of para cord under my saddle.
Anders Hjelmberg I don’t drink it but I use it for cereal lol.
Anders Hjelmberg I caught it the first time bro lol
Anders Hjelmberg I meant caught the reference. Why are you so concerned with what type of milk people use?
Anders Hjelmberg alright then......do you feel good now? Finally got that off your chest?
I like that fur trick, I'm now chasing that neighbour's big cat.
Just found your channel and I absolutely love it you got a new sub keep up the great work 🤙
I really like the hack with the shoes. I often had problems with my shoelaces but you fixed it, thank you 🙈
Your content is Amazing,you being a South African is a bonus. Keep up the great work 💪
Love u r1 ❤🌷
Love all 10 hacks
Great job sir
Since i saw this video on my feeds a thousand times, finally watched it..👏👏🤣😘
No one's supposed to tighten the shoelaces that tight especially on DCs it's a sin
Never thought of the shirt trick 😂 Well done!
This is the FIRST motorcycle hacks video I've ever seen that's actually useful and not just a bunch of random shit that doesn't apply to most people.
I love the spray trick!
Your bike looks and sounds awesome
When I used to ride I used to tuck in my laces inside my shoes
That's the best way!
The tip to strap down the bike......gold bro!!
Thank you sharing your tips!
The back of my Cbr cannot even fit a glove!
Kung Fu Kenny I feel you bro 😭
1st tip is pointless, you can just double tie tbe loops again and again until the loops can't reach the pegs anymore
yeah, that's what I do
How do you untie them then?
So helpful and will use them in the future
Lol the fur just works as an acoustic baffle and/or acoustic band pass filter that filters out high frequency and amplitude noises. The same can be done at concerts with normal camera phones to get quality sound that the bass doesn’t destroy. Just wrap your phone microphone in your t shirt or a handkerchief and you will get REALLY quality sound recording with your phone.
Tomorrow I´m gona wax my helmet :)
