Motorcycle Riding Basics : Motorcycle Safety Gear

[LHSR71ABB]

eh um bom inicio + faltou as calças e as botas!

nice start, but you forget boots and pents

keep safe, keep ride!

[CuzWereSpecial]

Youd be pretty stupid to ride without gear. Seriously.

[zappatx]

Here in SOuth Dakota people are dumb as hell - only about 10% wear a helmet and 80% of those morons wear little more than a Hawaiian shirt, shorts and flip flops.

[wesdabest787]

for legs could i just wear jeans? with maybe some sliders? or do i need real motorcycle specific pants? Just for everday commuting, not even high way speeds

[KajualGamer89]

@wesdabest787 Even a fall at low speeds can rip your jeans wide open and take your skin off, best choice and safest choice is to wear gear head to toe.

[Darylw27]

@wesdabest787 Most jeans rip after 3ft of sliding, after that your skins next. I value my skin and if you do too, get some leathers or textiles.

good job. keep pushing the use of helmet. its stupid not to wear one.

[silentbl00d]

what about your ass? you need ass plates

[EugeneF15]

Never forget your tennis shoes when riding, lacing them is optional though.

[christophersakers]

where in az are you?

[sniperboy135]

good job bro...

[csnu5]

one word for the lower part of you that was suprisingly left out....DRAGGIN JEANS

[sirtristan01]

cool. i fell off my bicycle as a kid once, so I understand why he stresses the gloves so much.

[daswada9]

do you really think that the motorcycle safety gear will help you if you crash with 280km/h ?!?!

btw i'm wearing a safety gear (:

[MrFancySchmancyPants]

@daswada9 did he ever say it would?

[daswada9]

@MrFancySchmancyPants then what is the point of it ?

[maikeli7]

Good vid! Important for all riders to see. But you left out one very important thing to protect on a bike, something that is the most commonly injured part of the body in bike crashes:

LOWER LEGS!!

You have to talk about torsion control boots! Trust me, I found out the hard way.

Ride Safe, Y'all!

[RabidTurkey2k8]

omg using that transcribe audio ting is hilarious sometimes

[geritolwhamfan]

This guy is a tool. He never mentioned protective boots or protective pants. Do you think your legs and feet are safe in a crash without the proper gear on?

What a dumb ass.

[motormanish]

Never mentions boots or protective pants. Aren't your legs and feet going to get torn up in a crash, if not protected?

What an idiot. Don't listen to these people. All the gear all the time.

[Armacalypse]

It sounds like he's saying the gloves are more important than the helmet.

[Luc3r01]

i knew he was in arizona no wonder looks familiar lol...

[amk1992amk1992amk]

this vid didnt help at all so can any one tell me what is the top brands for both protection and style?

[lemmeluk]

the only reason people don't wear it is A. There plain idiots or B. the gear cost's to much so they don't botha

i need the winnter one manz be livin in canada

[geritolwhamfan]

I guess he doesn't give a shit about anything below his waist. What about protective pants and boots? DUH. Those parts of the body hit the ground when you fall too.

[theDEVILdog0300]

@geritolwhamfan

so true..

[2channelgeek]

you also need kneeshin guards under pants. those are not expensiv. in case of falling down, which part of your body hits most badly?

[rolo454]

I wear everything bar the boots on my 50cc.

Some people ask me why on a 50cc as it looks strange but i'd rather keep my life as ive crashed before and without the jacket and trousers I would have some bad scars.

[CatAtomic99]

My boots have saved me from breaking an ankle more than once when my bike kicked back. You need some good solid boots that cover the ankles.

[SniperSheep92]

boots? legs?

i ride a lil 50cc motorbike and i still wear all this stuff wouldnt risk it

[djay230]

i think jeans are fine with legs....if you can ride pretty good...but boots is a must....my friend got the foot peg stuck in his ankle once....always wear ankle high boots.

[SniperSheep92]

yeah boots defo i heard of a guy breakin his ankle and the only think holding it in place was his boot

[geritolwhamfan]

Jeans are not good. If you fall your jeans will only last for 10 feet. After that it is your skin that gets ground off. Have you ever seen the result of serious road rash? if you did, I'll bet you would run right out a get a pair of real riding pants. All the gear all the time.

[masserby]

Shadow right on back protector. One in jacket better than nothing, but longer separate one best.

[MoonSheWolf]

Yeah, missing some parts of safety gear...

pants, shoes...

[r19640]

hello expertvillage,

fine that a helmet is a must for you - but what about safety pants and boots (even in hot arizona).

ShadowR1der70 is right with what he is saying about back protectors.

[ShadowR1der70]

Hahaha - nice try - i'm sure those pants and shoes will protect you real good. Plus you need a seperat backprotektor covering the hole of your back the ones in jackets are pretty much useless!

[tavo393]

nice vid

[mikepartyboy]

boots?

[COON06]

Not enough people wear gear and i will never understand why its not important our skin is so irreplaceable
