Did you notice the entire video is a single take, without any cuts.
Ryan's a master.
He had to do it before the salesman came back with the manager
I am pretty sure nobody watching the video is blind.
Including the ad! Crazy
This man and his content is a gift from GOD ALMIGHTY! Mark Richardson
a 7-minute video done in one take
including the advertisement
*8
Hey fort You forgot to mention INVERTED shocks!!!
*And* he hit his mark on "Destroy all wings." Very impressive.
👎 advertisement 🙄
heres v.short vid, interspersed with an v.long advert. why bother with such short vids? 👎 even traffic cops have more integrity. This nothing more than a shill channel these days.
This honestly should be submitted to art and film festivals. An almost 8 minute single take including an ad placement +animation insert without missing a beat. Brilliant work.
Have you been to an art festival before
Don't forget the Maple Leafs shade
What did you pay the devil to be able to do single takes like that?
This channel is on a completely different level - from the charismatic host and master operator to the editor with tasteful and organic vfx and a genius screenwriter
We just sacrifice a clone every couples months. ~RF9
@@FortNine I can hear 46's tears dropping reading this comment 😅
You'd think Ryan was doing these videos in one take as some kind of flex but really its just because they haven't figured out how to teach 44 to edit a youtube video yet
For a moment I wondered if it was a budget-saving thing - they don't have to go out into the countryside with a bunch of drones for five days. But it strikes me that the amount of preparation and rehearsal is probably just as time-consuming. Especially given that it's single-purpose - with the outdoorsy videos they probably end up with masses of stock footage they can use in other videos.
Should be 46 now right? 😂
Like that Keisha video
@@MightycaptainI was going to say, it has to be at least 45 now, right? That can't be helping him learn video editing.
@@Mightycaptainexactly, and so 46 is just a newborn.
When you can 1 camera 1 take a video and it's 10x better than 98% of the other videos on RUclips. You don't need to flex. You just are the GOAT.
I’m just not convinced he’s human
I'm still not sure what "GOAT" means. "Greatest Of All Time"?
It's another stupid phrase people are using
Or we could say on fleek
How many times was this "1 take" recorded?
I don't even ride bikes and still watch your videos, they're so well made and charisma is just astounding
OMG the sarcasm, the super smooth segue into the sponsor, the sponsor presentation, the science, the post-production motion graphics, the locations, no "uh's" and "uhm's", the camera work, the science, Arcee, Shockwave, Soundwave, Bumblebee, Optimus Prime, Megatron, Hot Rod, Kup, the motion-tracked sample videos, and did I mention the science?
Damn it, I'm not interested in motorcycles one bit but I can nominate this video as the best-produced video on RUclips!
the timing with the prius, truck, and the mural is amazing, i swear every F9 video is just one short film after another and its astounding. incredible work every time
absolutely true. i dont own a motorcycle and probably never will, but the way F9 videos are presented is just too good not to watch
@@niToitsyeSkxawng this dude and his team are half the reason im getting one
yep. no motorcycle, yes vancouver, fortnine very good.
The camera work and the presentation really making a lot of RUclips look poorly produced. What an amazing presenter of facts
This 👍👍👍
He probably made about 5.00 an hour pure profit?
Bar set. This is Top Notch throughout any genre. Fluid in every aspect. So refreshing and impressive.
Salute
And the absolutely fucking crazy timing of getting to the mural at the EXACT moment of the "Destroy all winglets" comment 6:28 is just...I don't know...stupid impressive.
Agree with other commenters that this level of YT creation, production, content, presentation, etc. really stands out in the bazillions of other original content videos.
Mad respect!!
not really, i have seen plenty of videos by children who could manage the exposure level way better then most F9 videos. just look at this one, lol!!!
in awe by the production quality, a 7 minute one take video is crazy, especially when the information is put so consise yet in extremely simple to grasp terms. Good job guys, this is amazing!
Did anyone notice he checks traffic when the camera guys crosses at the end?
One of the best videos I have seen on YT and I did not realise it was an advert till he had finished!
That Prius is going to have some problems getting out of that space.
Should have taken the bike lol
That was my first thought, too. "Ooooo she's not getting out of there."
Insert appropriately snarky comment about superior parallel parking skills in Europe. That said, our urban landscapes kinda necessitate navigating tight spaces. Have a nice one, cheers
I think they put it there like that. Look how the front wheel is turned.
6:14 for anyone curious.
No seven minutes goes faster than a FortNine video.
Except you want to watch it 2x
My wife disagree... she told me 7mns should be an improvement 😅
*a Ryan FortNine video, the other ones suck
@@contractkiller6863 I disagree. Maybe not quite as good, but still VERY good.
yeah it's 6 and a half with the grubby sponsor skipped
The moment I noticed it's a one-shooter I stopped paying attention to the content and just enjoed the form of it. And It's beautiful. The flex to let the intro in... the Prius, the gap between the cars, that just convinently happenned to be at the very best spot to end the show....
I mean... C'mon.... keep doing that. I'll learn nothing about motorcycles and I'll enjoy every second of it.
Thanks!
I read the comments about it being one take, but the the ad read hit without a cut and I'm just blown away by how good it is? This is so impressive! Great camerawork and great presentation. Very, very impressive!
This channel is single handedly settings benchmarks for other moto journalists.
They are busy with moviesque cliche cinematography where ryan is busy with "motorcycling"
Thank you man
Its kinda funny because this video was a 1-shot, which is one of the most classic, moviesque, cliche, director+cinematographer flexes out there. But I totally agree with you. The "b-reel slomo shot on a slider" that most of these other motoJournos are doing doesn't even come close to the writing, thoughtfulness, wit, and overall quality of this channel.
And so many people do the presenter talking to a different camera on purpose thing. that is just never cool.
Absolutely well said!!!
Yes everyone did...
Born A Goon is #1 IMO.
Someone who has always been praised by their brilliant efforts in editing... does a single take video and crushes it. Kudos Ry... very nice work.
One take, no editing just hrs and hrs od hard work learning your lines and hitting you markers. Well done.
You guys are THE BEST two wheel content creators on RUclips!!
Well Done!
That Transformers mural was so sick I tuned out to what Ryan was saying, a feat in itself. 🤖 Til all are one!
Yeah, it is extremely well done.
ÛR ÛR Æ Æ Æ
Prime!!!
Anybody know where this mural is? Can’t seem to google for it
@@rao_v It's on the side of Daytona Motorsports' KTM showroom in Vancouver! There's great street art in that neighbourhood in general, actually (the safer, east-er side of East Van). ~RF9
I feel a disturbance in the force... As if millions of honda civic drivers all screamed out in pain at once
Hahahaha, my afternoon laugh! Thanks, bud!
You could hear them over the sound of their fart cans? That's impressive.
Honda Civic drivers: *Denying reality*
Ryan F9: *Spitting straight facts*
Honda Civic drivers: *Denying reality Harder*
Fracking perfection!
XDDDDD
Not only done in one take but getting the timing right to end up under the 'destroy all machines' grafitti and twisting it to suit your comment... all the while beautifully framed between the 2 parked cars... bloody brilliant! AND the content is real, applicable, current etc, all delivered in your inimitable style lol... Top Notch mate... Top Notch!
Whoa. A single take... I can't believe a TV network did not pick you up to host a show with multi-national views. Amazing. And informative, knowledgeable, clear. Respect. And Thank you!!
My man, I am not a motorbike guy. I just randomly clicked the thumbnail because, whatever. I was riveted to the screen-that one-take was phenomenal. The integrated ad as well is casual, conversational, and utterly professional. I don't understand any of what you are talking about, but am now a fan. Bravo. Kudos to the slick editor as well.
Oooo increíble
You should get a bike. They are fun.
Welcome. Stick around
I have never ridden a day in my life. I stumbled upon a review video a few years back and was blown away by the production quality of the video. They are all AMAZING! OMG. I have never seen a plug be so seamless and use of environment be so natural. Each of these videos are meticulously "Crafted" as a work of art while providing top notch info. Still don't ride 7 years later but still love watching these videos. Subscribe if you haven't. Its worth it.
The M1000R’s are a great spot to wedge gloves during a windy coffee stop
a glorified glove holder
This actually kinda sells me the winglets
The only issue is that I'm not gonna get a 1000, can't use them for shit on public roads
@@Daniel-dj7fh And if you even try for a bit... there goes your license.
@@Angel-wo8gv It's just no fun to be reckless
Single take, from the shop to the parking lot to the street, all with a seamless and well documented speech…brilliant 😮
You guys are amazing. Honestly, I see the passion in your work.
Incredible camera work, scripting, storytelling style, transitions, animations, explanations that are technical but understandable, and so much more.
Incredible job.
Ryan's ability to one take an entire 8 minute video, including a seamlessly integrated ad, is unparalleled.
The cynic in me says it’s because a certain recent pad safety video was done in one take - and that was the only thing it really got any praise for.
Then the square space ad in the next most recent video was really popular as you can see by the timeline replays.
So they decided to slap those two elements together with a topic that most people don’t know or care about and punch out another video so there’s a bit more distance from the controversial April one.
Seems to have worked :)
James Hoffman published an epic one take video 1 day ago titled “What does a great cup of coffee taste like?”. If you like coffee and clever videos, take a look.
Oooooooohhhh 😮
Don't worry. 4 bolts and 4 clips. Just 20min from first bolt release to upload at ebay.
amazing vid as always. and also the first time i dont skip ahead during an ad segment. props to the team at fortnine, incredible job!
Great video again, the presentation just hits different. Best channel for honest no BS content. Keep up the great work. Even the ads in the middle of the vid hit. I was tempted to start a website and i can barely turn on a computer
Can’t be as worthless as me on my days off 😒
that hits hard personally... me too bro me too...
hey, doing nothing, relaxing is totally fine y'know!
cant be as worthless as me just existing
womp womp
Me rn
Your point is valid, but I don’t think anyone is actually expecting to reap the aero benefits on the street. They just think they look cool.
Yesh, like big fake wings on budget rice cars, who cares its just fun and ridiculous, not everyone does things for practucality
they don't even look cool
When I was a kid I remember there was a car called the Citroen BX. The GTi models had the most ridiculous spoiler on the back - it just a rectangular bit of plastic. BXes are really rare now because the engines can be swapped into a Peugeot 205, which is much more desirable.
Cool? All winglets look like tacked on shit.
"hurr the dont even look cool and that is the only valid opinion" just let people like what they like
This is the best marketing of Squarespace I have ever seen in a youtube video. I literally watched it to see how the website can be built. Regardles, I love your channel which is a Hollywood type Discovery channel for bikes. The best is your narration.
Respect to everybody involved in this production. Watch the video again and imagine how hard it is do film all of this in one single take, with perfect timing of where the camera shows and all. Very nicely done!
"40 lbs at 200mph" that should have ended the discussion right there
For street bikes. For racers, that advantage adds up to quicker lap times.
Particularly because it's not linear. The force generated is in the end of the equation the square of the speed, so at 100mph you're getting like 10lbs of downforce. 2.5lbs at 50mph.
deadass. even the most comically large winglets make absolutely no difference unless you're going ridiculously fast, which you can't do 99.9% of the time you're out. they're so bulky, such an eyesore, and the only way they would be worth it is if they made a big difference in performance, but they don't do fucking ANYTHING
@@Wintersdark i dont see your math adding up mate. If the speed is squared should it therefore be (half the downforce)^2? So only 5lbs at 100mph and 1.25 at 50mph. You calculated it as if its linear
I only ride street but do like the downforce. That’s why I taped a bunch of bricks to my front mudguard. 🤔👍
I'm taking a timeout at the 4:43 minute mark to say that FortNine has gone through the first five minutes of the video without a single jump cut. This is Juilliard School of filmmaking / Oscar worthy stuff. So hard to do I have read, and Ryan pulls it off effortlessly.
Advertising genius. This is the first video in a long time that I watched all the way through without tap skipping past the integral ad. Well done.
Fortnine is the only channel I actually listen to the sponsorship part and don’t fast forward cause the production is just that good…
so cool to see my local motorcycle shop featured yet again in a fortnine video! what a beautiful location and great presentation by Ryan.
My favourite dealership in town! ~RF9
@@FortNine and the coolest mural as well... i'm so glad nobody's tagged it and ruined it all these years.
@@xtreme9898was goin to mention that. Seriously talented art students over there. And the town seems to respect it as art too
Could you tell me the location of it? Just curious.
It's very close to a machinist friend's old shop. He put a ZX10R in the back of a 1990 Mini.
Love how the video has been made, one take, no weird things, good background music and editing. Feels really natural!
gotta be the best channel on motorcycling on You Tube honestly all the topics are tops and the delivery is unmatched.. thankyou
What a great video! Great filming, great timing, great delivery and a great message!
It always amazes me how much information and jokes Ryan can fit in such a short timeframe. Add the great location scouting and camera work. This video has wings, not winglets.
And the amount of retakes and or really well hidden stitches for a ≈8 min one take.
"Strakes". 😁
Hello from Italy!!!! WE are loving your videos! We show them at bike nights to 100 people…..keep up the good work!!!! Gracie!!!!
I'm really impressed with the great content and witty presentation of your videos! Very entertaining as well as informative.
Ryan, I cannot get over how amazing you have become at presenting these videos. It’s absolutely compelling. An 8 minute single-take and done SO well to boot. Bravo. Best motorcycle RUclips channel bar none.
They didn’t even edit/bleep the f-bomb.
This is the most impressive video on RUclips for years. Well done @FortNine
5:50 lol
Can we take a minute to appreciate the Video and Audio effects at the 0:40 and 2:32 marks where the air-flow is shown in front of the Motorcycle but behind Ryan's hands. Not to mention the Dutch angle at the 1:45 mark. Awesome editing.
Or the truckload of dirty air right on cue at 6:24?? Camera guy must have a legion of off-duty angels on set... the big scary ones who just dig bikes and can do the serendipity thing
The airflow VFX layer is in front of his hands / the whole frame in both cases that you linked.
Excellent video!! Very informative with top notch graphics placement. Cudos to the editing team for a professional, and very well explained, creation!! Keep them coming!!!
Amazing production all around!!! Your content is fantastic!!!
Sick onetake
Nice reference to the 2 stroke expansion chamber. Pioneered by a guy called Walter Kaaden who worked for MZ. He and one of the MZ race team's riders, Ernst Degner defected from MZ and the Eastern Bloc to Japan and went to Suzuki.
Next thing you know, Suzuki became the dominating force until the other big names like Honda and Yamaha got their heads around expansion chamber tech.
However, never forget the contribution made by MZ!!!
I rode an MZ once and it felt like the frame and engine were made out of lead, it was a commuter bike so obviously didn't feature any race tech, but it still blows my mind they managed to make it that heavy!
@memitim171 they're very odd bikes, but a bloody hoot to ride. Quite rare now. I own one and mines one of just 5 roadworthy examples of the model of MZ in the entire UK.
I don't think they were made to be popular, they were designed to do a job n for a budget and be easy to maintain.
That they did well. Sounds like yours was a TS250/1 Supa5 that you rode ^.^
@@stormus65 Still love that enclosed chain, why does no one else do that?
Good book too; read Stealing Speed by Mat Ohley.
@@rogerkay8603 something called style I think lol
Fantastic editing and camera work. Really enjoyed the walkie talkie showcasing the Transformers.
Twenty years into wrenching on these and I usually don't like the vids I find. This one pleased me. Thank you and well done.
I so admire the writing and perspective packed into these. #1) major major props to the camera team. It's hard to hit all those marks and completing that dance together is tough.
#2) Ryan, thank you for putting the extra work into these videos. I'm so grateful to get to consume educational content wrapped in layered narrative. You managed to densely interweave scientific context, real world pragmatism, and corporate realism into a concise discussion of a bike part. And, to quote my favorite Double Physics & Art History Major, "that's something to be proud of."
1000cc track bikes are totally useless on roads in so many other aspects also that the winglets fit just fine :D
You guys should press a gixxer
Also, they can attack at any time.
@@AshleyPomeroy They must be dealt with!🐳
This!
winglets outside of motogp... even superbike or ama or any other racing league are completely USELESS waste of weight
idk what you're more knowledgeable of; Motorcycles or film making. Fantastic work, man.
Love your takes man.........Keeps us all smiling 🙂
Someone wasn't around for the indicator beeper trend back in the 79's that let you and everyone for half a mile around you know you were turning.
I'm an aerospace engineer. What Ryan said. Street motorcycle aerosurfaces are about as useful as their automotive counterparts but motorcycles aren't as forgiving with the downside. They're mostly just something to tear off when you go down. Plus nonperpendicular aerosurfaces ahead of the cg are directionally destabilizing. That's aerospace engineering talk.
I’ll never go fast enough to ever need one. I buy bikes because they look cool and I just go for a putt-putt to the cafe.
@@dans2971 An ounce of pretension is worth a pound of manure but yeah, if you're going fast enough on a motorcycle for aerodynamics to be a major concern you're probably going too fast.
@@tedchristian2235I guess they sell because they look cool, and manufacturers state that “their winglets add downforce for stability at higher speeds”. What are higher speeds? 200 mph? Who the hell does that in the street? Ah, never mind…. There are those RUclipsrs risking their lives for some likes and “street cred”. Fools….
Would the destabilization not be in effect until the non-vertical surface was in front and above the c of g on a ground born conveyance ? Not aerospace engineering talk just simple curiosity.
@@bobturnbull18 Having a vertical surface or a surface with a vertical component ahead of the cg has the same effect as a vertical tail behind the cg except it tends to point you away from the wind instead of into the wind so you diverge in yaw or swap ends.
Oh my word 🤐😵 the whole video and speech in a single shot?!?! You’re ridiculously awesome talented 🤩👍🏽
Every now and then you come across a genius. Even the ad was eluminating. Bravo! I guess its time to buy something from Fortnine. These videos are worth every bit.
Nice! Just graduated with my aerospace degree with a focus on bikes and this is the right applications of physics, love it
Sounds like a very cool education, what's the next objective if you don't mind me asking?
Don't get discouraged if you do not land your ideal job immediately. You may have to take a gig that's outside your ideal goal to pay the bills. It's good to show future employers that you can buckle down and complete tasks in areas you aren't even interested in.
One of my very good friends finished a mech eng program from a fantastic school only to be turned down for several "dream jobs". He had a few jobs that weren't ideal for his goals, but one of those jobs connected him with Larry of Multimatic. For the last 12 or 13 years, he's been working passionately on really exciting projects all over the world.
Thank you for your life story

Great work breaking it down for us, Fortnine. Thanks again!
I was just pregaming old fortnine videos. Thanks for spicing up my boring Saturdays at work.
Yeah right...

I don't ride street motorcycles but I find this channel extremely entertaining. bravo, the filming and editing are some the best I have ever seen.
What editing? 😀
@@valuemastery even a single take video (no idea how people are so sure this is the case) needs to be edited. Especially good production videos, which is what the channel here quasi stands for.
This isn’t about motorcycles anymore. This is art.
My almost religious love for this channel faded when they started expanding into bmx. But this video reminded me of everything I loved about this channel, what sets them apart, and this video will be the reason I rewatch everything from f9 beginning from the Canada tour with Ryan's dad this Sunday.
I am now adding winglets to my Honda Vision 110
Adding them to my '95 DR...
KLR definitely requires winglets... just have to figure out how to cut them out of bleach bottles.
KLR650?
I'm adding them to my victory vision
@@ZealothPL Are there any other KLRs that routinely get fitted with milk crates and bleach bottles as accessories? And, why did that comment get censored? Why?
Think of wings on a motorcycle as having flame decals behind your exhaust.
Great video. Well structured for a single take and even integrating your environment into the talking points. Nice!
your videos just keep getting better and better
best motorcycle channel on YT, and it's not even close.
Ryan the "One Take Wonder" nice job!
thanks, Ryan, the voice of reason is loud and clear. I retired two years ago moved to Uruguay and bought 2 Svartpilen 401s for my wife and I, yes I can honestly say that I enjoy riding more now at 67 years old than any time in the last 20 years on a 1000cc sportbike. Softer gentler smile-inducing rides like being 10 years old again on a Honda step-thru 90. The only wings on rides now is a once in a while RedBull
I dont own or want a motorcycle but the quality and one-take informational video about bikes makes me comeback. very impressed
This vid was another piece of art.
I’m genuinely so grateful that we have folks so dedicated to a craft and able to seek out the furthering of it thanks to F9.
Keep up the amazing work F9 team.
"Yes, is this the Police? There is a guy outside and inside the KTM shop, fanaticly walking around talking to himself, throwing wild gestures, maybe gang signs, can you please send someone?"
Genius Onetake from across the street.
That’s pretty normal from KTM riders. Trust me, I am one.
You know there are too many “RUclipsrs” 🙄 that are making “art” by doing 300 edits per minute. 👎 I’ve turned those guys off faster then there edits regardless what they are talking about, that’s what makes this video so much better is Ryan can do it with zero! Thank you Ryan!
I was filming some talking heads at a location yesterday and was struggling to remember a paragraph at a time
The master class of video making to explain a gimmick is sublime. Props to the camera guy.
My idea is to have large wings on your helmet so that angle of attack can be manipulated by razing and lowering the chin. And in a corner the rider can tilt the head to the side to keep down force down. And if bike is gong to crash, rider tilts chin up and rider flies off the bike and glides to the ground smoothly. Men with strong stout necks would have an advantage in racing.
You guys have always had top notch cinematography, but this one takes the cake. I can only imagine the prep work that went into this video.
It is so amazing that I can be completely uninterested in winglets, but now after a high-quality education, I am well informed. Also, that might’ve been the smoothest one take video, including promotion integration I’ve ever seen.
I never would've thought that Fortnine videos could get any better, this video is absolute masterpiece.
Been seeing Squarespace segments from photographers, videographers and creators for what feels like a decade and that was by far the best one I’ve ever seen.
Another awesome video. Thanks for continuing to educate us.
very good video. putting the examples into the advertisement and filming a onetake. genius!
From the story telling to the one take videos. I am continued to be blown away (without a difuser) by your editing and videos!
my brother is the director/ editor. I'm so prouddd!
Fortnine is the only channel where you have to watch twice the videos, because the first time you focus so much on how good the filming and Ryan's skill as a presenter is that you miss some of the talking
After not riding for thirty years this channel made me change my mind. So I bought myself a little Harley. Whacking the boots on now and going for a cruise… thanks Fortnine. 🧐
Wow. Just wow. Another great video - and 1 take. You guys arw awesome! All the best 💪🏻🔥
whoever scouted for this movie is a good human and deserves lots of praise (as well as the rest of the team, thanks guys!)
Ryan...that was the smoothest transition into and out of an ad that I have ever seen.
This video is a piece of art. Excellent job mate
Ryan needs to do more videos. It's like watching a fun lecture from a professor. Great info, lots of technical bits broken down into simple concepts and great thought process.
