F9: Motorcycle gadgets you don't need
Marketing 100
It worked though
Works every time
Reverse psychology/ego boost for reckless spending on simple, neat, yet superfluous gadgets.👍 Works every time.
You don't need this, but you deserve it.😉
Man, i can hear the skyrim sound allready. :)
"You don't need any of these"
*Immediately orders 360° chain brush and fuel pump*
I've had one for years. It's amazing
I got really excited about the beads cause I switch tires a lot for track days, but I'd prefer not to start vibrating violently at 120 :)
@@jellafella6957 are you sure he didn't mean 200mph? So 320

After watching this video, I took Ryan's advice went out for a dual-sport ride.
I ended up doing first aid for a hiker with a broken ankle and then guiding the EMTs up the trail.
Good advice, Ryan! (Your first aid video was also handy!)
I want a Dual Sport, a Dirt Bike with Indicators and a Licence Plate, it's perfect
"Now we have a mass on a wheel on a spring, otherwise known as an engineer's wet dream".
I giggled.
I think only Engineer's will get this joke. :-)
@@flippyfiller can someone explain for stupid me?
Its called a free body diagram in Mechanical Engineering its very easy to visualize and calculate forces thats why it's a wet dream for engineers who are generally used to solving complex diagrams.
I'm an Engineer and just tought, just use a damper, like, you know, motorcycle forks have.... That system needs a damper. But the idea of using mass to counter oscillation is nice too.
@@winteronice Dampers are nice but they are something to fight the symptom - oscillation, not the source of the problem - an unbalanced, rotating mass.
Having a balanced wheel on a damper means that the damper will have more headroom to do what it's designed for -- dampen the bumps in the road, not in your wheel.
They may be gadgets I don't NEED, but I saw them on F9 so I WANT them.
I have to agree 100%
Those beads, get rid of those ugly weights, not planning on exceeding 200kph :)
You are a marketing person's dream.
🤣🤣
Nope. Following Ryan’s advice, I’m off to ride.
I literally came here to make this comment. I hate you
*Motorcycle gadgets you DON'T need*
Me: *breathes heavily* *"I NEED THEMMM"*
Themmm.
doing my best sponge bob impression
PINKY!!!!! PINKY!!!!!!!
i literally just bought those balance beads cause i hate the look of wheel weights on my rims lol
an admission of your paltry existence. Keep on watching
The more of Ryan's videos I watch, the more I like them. This young man is an excellent teacher, with a sharp sense of humor.
I was digging around looking for my keys the other day and found my girlfriends tread doctor in the drawer of her night stand. I tried to work on my bike's tire with it and all it did was make a weird buzzing noise. Does it take a while for it to warm up or do you think that it might be broken?
I had the same problem, my gay friend gave me twice what it was worth. I said you don't even own motorcycle, replied with a smile I know.
I wanted to buy one for my girlfriend whose really into motorcycles. Is there a reason there's a burn hole in my bed sheets?

How about the first line of the video:
"...these moto gadgets are obscure and ingeniously useful, but RUclips is a HALL OF MIRRORS, designed to keep us watching instead of doing, buying instead of making- so to be perfectly clear, you don't need any of this shit..." !
that's the bottom line, hold our attention to shape reality so that when we're done watching the videos we behave in the ways that have been programmed, and *now* you can ride

lmao
My exact thoughts too!
Buy a motorcycle.
@@ThiefOfNavarre Actually, you need TWO motorcycles.

Came here exactly for this comment.
Hey Tucker, do you drive motorcycles or dirt bikes? Or do you just do paramotering
@@zachmoerman4165 your just gonna have to watch all of his content to find out haha.
I love my Tirox 360 chain brush, because I'd rather be riding than doing maintenance. You're going to want to hold a shop rag over it to control the wild splatter, but this gets my chain cleaner in significantly less time than any other method I've used. I hate chain maintenance, so I consider this a must have. I never new it can be squashed inside the head of the chain cleaner, lol.
I have a shaft drive. I still need that chain brush!
Who doesn't like a clean shaft?
I love my shaft drive
@@Brandon4Weiss first bike I've owned with a shaft, i love my shaft apart from washing the shaft and the rest of the body there be no maintenance. .... the chain however was a ballache
obviously, but you can also use floss on your teeth or brain
No joke, when I first got into riding and watching all of Ryan’s videos I went out and spent about 70$ worth of stuff… got home, realized I ride 3 scooters with no chain. So my chain lube, wax, brushes and stuff all sat there until I bought my supermoto.
Hahaha
I still love scooters and small bikes, my daily is a 125 urban explorer supermoto… but now I have at least 3 bikes that actually have chains.
So yeah, your dumb joke was my *actual* derp-ass moment.
Hey I actually purchased the spiral chain brush a few weeks ago. I love it! It works so well I wish I bought it sooner. With my klr650 I can actually operate it hands free, as it will catch against the subframe, while I spin the wheel with one hand and spray kerosene with the other.
Remember folks, you cannot earn more time on this Earth, so any gadget that saves you some is well worth the price.
"A mass on a wheel on a spring" is the kind of classical physics humor I appreciate (and he's not wrong).
@Heads Mess ah... wire...

@Heads Mess "it gets very interesting when you really read the books with curiosity rather than cramming to pass exams..."
This is why I think most of college is a waste of time. I got an MS in Aerospace Engineering. Combined with the BS degree it took almost a decade of my life. I probably could have learned everything I needed, and at a slower, better to fully comprehend rate, in about three years. Instead, it was years of cram-and-forget classes.

“Secondly, pushing your balls through the tiny orifice requires much pumping”

This team just kills it every time and I love hearing what Ryan has to say about anything at all, haha.
I love the 360 brush because it packs down so small. I can cram it into my tool kit on the road along with a small bottle of DuPont chain saver. Awesome for longer trips where chain upkeep is necessary.
I wasn't expecting a fortnine video this early but its a welcome surprise
Why can’t all motorcycle videos be like yours? It’s like watching a movie!
If they were all this good then this video would not be good any more. Then it would just be average.
@MaSaGinNi KuNai True, dat. Making videos is WAY harder than watching videos.
There is a hose for gas transfer that has a little glass ball inside a metal cap, you shake it around a little inside the tank and it makes the water flow, simply beautiful
Man, I had one of those chain brushes a decade or so ago and had completely forgotten about it! It was great at the time. Will have to look at getting another now. 👌🏼
F9: you don't need these
Me after watching: those looks interesting
Some people watch movies
I just watch FortNine
Really these videos are sooo, good
Better production quality than most movies!
I dont own a motorcycle, i dont plan on ever owning one. I still watch every vid because this guy is so good at what he does
@@Astrokittens He is, he's brilliant. It speaks volumes that a recurrent theme through so many of the comment sections is: 'I don't even own a bike, but still watch everything that RyanF9 does.' We are very lucky to have him.
.... still think you oughta get a bike, though - there really is nothing quite like it : )
All three are definitely needed now. Like all the other commenters said. But really, the balancing beads and the fuel pump are absolutely fantastic.
I just don't understand why anyone would dislike FortNine's videos? They're clever, involve RELEVANT products and content, and have BEEN consistently great involving all of that since day damn one.
Balls through the orifice! Still laughing. O...M...G, I enjoy each and every one of your videos!
Don't forget where he says "suck off" at 1:58
The pump is great. I got one and I wouldn't go without. I use it to fill the riding mower which saves my bad back. No more spills.
I've run Dyna beads in my FJR since 2006 and I love them, smooth as "glass" I have run the bike up to 135 and still smooth. Installing then through the nozzle is a pain. I roll a doobie of glass beads out of toilet paper and drop it in while installing the tire before seating the beads. Works great. The next time you remove the tire fow replacement, there isn't a trace of the TP visible. The beads masserate it pretty quickly. Great video! The individual who creates the first painless, clean, fast chain cleaning system will some day rule the world.
Hey Ryan! You have in your explainer videos what is called an off sync between your Camera shutter speed and your lights frequency. This results in a band running across the bottom and slowly moving up - especially in the segment when you explain in front of the blackboard. You'll see it more clearly if you keep forwarding 5 seconds every time while playing - the band keeps shifting. This is because most cameras have rolling electronic shutter. Tell whoever's behind the camera to change their shutter speed and / or change the shooting frequency from 50 Hz to 60 Hz (or vice versa) until this effect goes off. Its very slight, so you're ALMOST at the right shutter speed.
Centrifugal so-called force. Also, like the bloopers at the end.
Never call a force 'so-called'! Your high school physics teacher must be furious.
Artem Temz actually, never call centrifugal “force” a real force, then your physics teacher will be truly furious
@@deadlydonague2402 I think most of high school so-called physics teachers do believe inertia forces are real forces. Because if they were at least somewhat good at physics, why would they waste their time being teachers?
Idioluh, because teaching is what they chose to do.
Idioluh unfortunately an in-depth knowledge of a specific subject wont get you much of a job, but takes a ton of time. Hence why many experts in their respective fields are professors.
Dammit. I gave my thumbs up at the beginning of the video and now after watching it I can't give it another thumbs up.
In case anyone is wondering about the background music:

Just so you know, I've NEVER rode a single motorcycle in my life. BUT I love this channel!!!

Ever heard of a unicycle?
@@iiGingiey he didn't say about buying unicycle.
Also, improvise bro , survive with what u have 😁😁😁😁😁
I've been using those glass beads for years in my road bike. Honestly love them, super easy and I reuse them between tires.
Your the only comment about the beads, wish more people gave reviews on them
My local tire shop suggested beads when I bought bigger all terrain tires for my truck. They work great, and I have no ugly weights on my nice aluminum wheels.
My supermoto is due for tires. I never thought of asking about balance beads for motorcycles before, but I will get them now
"you don't need these"
me wallet whimpers knowing me better...
2:11 I just realize I don't hate Physics...I just hate my physics teacher -_-
I found out during The Missenden Flyer's interview with RyanF9 that Ryan has a degree in Physics...
I discovered that with vsauce like 7 years ago. Incredible content that is 100% worth it
@@iamtherealzombieCentripetal
love when ryan uses trig to explain motorcycles to me 🥺💘
For transferring fuel from a storage unit, we use a regular pipe and an empty plastic cold drink bottle.
If you want to get fuel from the tank, just put the pipe's one end inside the fuel tank till the bottom and the other end inside the bottle (place your bottle below the fuel tank height). Now squeeze that bottle and let the air release from the open mouth of the plastic bottle. After that cover the open mouth so no air goes in or out. Release the squeezing and let the bottle reform to its original shape. This will suck the fuel from the tank and pour in that bottle. Lift the bottle just above your fuel tank height to stop the flow or just remove the pipe from the fuel tank.
Thanks for the physics! As a high school physics teacher it’s great to hear public applications of “centrifugal so called force” and “F sin 60”. You made my day.
I don't own a bike and don't even plan to buy anytime soon, but I still find your videos incredibly informative and well made. I wish more content creators take inspiration from you!
Thanks, Ryan! You did a great job selling me products that I had never heard of and probably don't need.
“Remember you don’t need any of these, now go ride”. Brilliant closing line. Thoroughly enjoy everyone of your videos, keep em coming guys!
That tread doctor seems terrifically useful for a utility ATV. My dad hauls firewood for his wood stove heated cabin on one, I think I'll grab him one for Father's day. He's a very frugal and utilitarian man.
T7 hints dropping often now...is a review coming? I know with so many reviews out there, why another one? Well, your perspective is special and you explain your verdict so that we can can decide for ourselves without being told. Thats why I am a subscriber!
You have taken the hints well, my friend. ~RF9
@@FortNine Once the Covid situation gets better, I am planning on embarking on an around the world trip. Bike is probably gonna be a T7 unless you recommend a Himalayan or used KLR 650 / BMW F 650. Riding gear, I am not decided yet. All experienced ATW Riders, say Waterproof is 1st Priority. I did of course watch your video on Gore Tex. It seems all roads lead to Revit Dominator or Klim Badlands. However, this STUFF is so expensive. Any cheaper great GoreTex alternatives?
Also, most of your Gear Videos have now 2-4 years on them now. How about the “Best Budget Adventure Around the World Gear” and “Best Adventure Around the World Gear?” Yes, I agree. I am trying to use you as my personal shopping advisor.
Your Videos are excellent! They are well researched, great presentation and easy transfer of the topic. Quality takes time, but how about 4 Videos a month instead 3? Maybe use the 4th to update the older gear videos? Honestly, I can watch your videos even 3 times a week. Also, I love Matt LeBlanc but you should be definitely the main Top Gear host! Still amazed, no network has stolen you away.
Thanks for entertain me during the quarantine! Love you're videos.
SO: Do I Buy Them? I'm not sure. I see the comment regularly that this is the best Motorcycle related content on YT but after nearly exhausting your library I am convinced you have the best "Do-It-Yourself" content on the Inter-Web! I watch everything from Auto-Centric to Xylophone Repair and Race/All Terrain/Off Road/4X4 to DIY of every topic and I do not see the consistent high quality and creative thoughtfulness of F9. Nobody, Nowhere, Knowhow. I will shut up now and start at the top. Thanks for the great Videos and for sharing your talents.
Hi Ryan, another great video. As a Brit and a TMF subscriber I was you on his channel last week. Excellent, really enjoyed it and once again you demonstrated your ability and humility in equal measure. Keep up the fantastic work.
Idk man, that chain brush looks pretty sweet to me.
Yep...I'm probably gonna get one too....
most gimmicky gadgets do until you own them. How do you keep the cancer off your hands since it lacks a handle? He didn't actually use it with any sort of goo in video so that this short coming isn't apparent. I'll stick with grunge brush thing that has a handle.
@@Bill-v650 was thinking the same thing, you're basically running your entire palm (even if gloved) against the worst muck and road grease known to man. While the 1-sided brush seems a bit more tedious I got the 3-sided one for some $5 of Aliexpress. Have been using the same one for a year, works like a charm and I never had to scrub that stuff of anything else.
@@Bill-v650 I mean you can buy a box with like a hundred latex gloves for 5 bucks.
I have one and they're great. I do wear nitrile gloves when I use it though.
Ryan: But let's move on before we get demonetised
*ph intro plays anyway*
5:00 I appreciate the fact RyF9 choose chalk colors to match his clothing
Ari Henning swears by that brush, and he's the king of clean chains, so...
All Hail Ari---

Balls deep funny.
"Otherwise known as a mass on a wheel on a spring, otherwise known as an engineer's wet dream".
As an engineer I completely understand and appreciate the philosophical tug of war between physicists and engineers!
This is why I have been watching your videos for years, you talk straight, no bullshit and you help us to enjoy our rides, our bikes and get good equipment! Thanks and safe travels....
You're supposed to clean a chain ? i just squirt more lube
Cleaning is probably more important than lubricating it, lubes more for just rust prevention on most chains now with sealed grease.
Same here, it is self cleaning if one is riding often & far enought :)
It’s wd40 then more chain lube :)
@@JohSno , until you start losing O-rings because of the increased friction from abrasive sand.
I'm guessing you all have seen it , but one of my favorite videos was Ryan's video on chain lubes. It changed how I think about chains and lubing them.
Same name as Elon’s baby! 😂
I almost spit my drink out, wasn't expecting it.
came for this
He's too much, man. Makes me laugh all the time.
MrSnowrocks ik i didn’t expect that 😂😂
Rf9 saying "you don't need these" has to be the greatest ad of all time because I want them and I dont even have a bike yet
"Like the Michelin Mans' butt-hole"... dude, you kill me.
Best damn moto channel out there.
Hell, best channel for just about anything out there.
Honest to God, you should have about 10 MILLION subscribers!
We are waiting for your ktm adventure 390 review :)
Guess I need them now
I do have the Tirox brush... It came with my can of Tirox cleaner. To be honest, I think it's worth the money. Their cleaner and the brush do a great job of cleaning a chain. It's worth the extra few bucks. Spray the chain, put the brush on, hold it with your hand while you spin the wheel around a few times, rinse and voila... A great clean chain. I bought the cleaner with the brush included for $14.99. Cdn at my local Suzuki dealer. Be a man, buy the brush.
I just checked and, yes, this is still the best motorbike related content online.
Ok well I'm buying that brush and those glass balls immediately
Im sorry, the tirox chain brush literally turned a chore of cleaning the chain to something i can complete in 10 minutes including lube.
100% agreement here.
My curiosity is does it do as good of a job as a standard brush
@@jimtaucher791 I got one with the can of chain cleaner. It works great and is lighter and smaller to carry on longer trips than the 3 sided brush. Hint: Bring along heavy duty Nitrile gloves to keep your hands clean when using it, then when you are done turn the gloves inside-out trapping the collapsed brush inside, keeping your hands and tool kit clean.
What's the life though compared to the 3 sided brush?
Unless you use old toothbrushes on your retro chain, $10 is what most chain brushes cost.
This looks more effective than a grunge brush and easier to store in the cap of the lube.
Oh BTW, you don't need a bunch of thick lube to oil a modern sealed chain. Many of us gunk them up for no reason. A light lube on the outside to prevent rust and slick the sprocket picks up a lot less grit than a bunch of grease. The roller grease is already sealed inside if you don't destroy it with excessive cleaners
Sorry, but the Tirox brush is one of the best cheap tools I've bought for the bike. Screw on the brush, get the rear tire off the ground and spin the tire to run the brush over the chain. Works better than a regular brush and much faster.
😆that guy siphoning gas for the lawn mower always cracks me up. 🙏MEDIOCRE🙏
3:48 It's sod-er-ing iron. I will die on this hill because I'm an American and facts don't matter here.
F9 uploads, Esox watches. A simple ritual.
F9 uploads, we all watch. I guess there's a little Esox in us all :)
The knobby knife works great. If your contemplating putting one more race on a rear tire, go ahead and sharpen it up and enjoy one more time.
Harbor freight has cheap manual fuel transfer pumps. Two hoses and a hand pump. Really useful! Used it to drain power steering fluid - works faster than you think but I wouldn't want to do a full tank
1st!
Nice!
2nd
:)
This is literally some of the best content on RUclips. Such a funny and good video.
Those Tirox brushes are amazing, bought one and then bought an additional two as spares, it's so good
59 seconds to 1:09 I'll happily spend that 10 bucks. I value my time. I don't dislike taking a little time to ensure my bike runs like a champ and stays reasonably clean ( once a month or every other month wash and wax too), but If I can save a good 2 to 3 minutes or more in cleaning my chain and it ends up still 100% clean, that is 10 bucks well spent for me.
“Michelin Man’s butthole”..... hilariously perfect reference point. Lol
Many years ago I read an article by a guy who worked at DID chains. He said that people cleaning their chains with brushes of any kind assured him of lots of business. He said don’t clean, just lube it. I took his advice and my current chain and my sprockets have been on my Ducati ST3s for 25,000 miles and still look and behave like new.
I love my Tirox spiral chain brush, works great!
The fuel pump is extremely useful on the lakes in the winter when you’re ice racing. Don’t wanna spill any gas on the ice. I have the exact same one haha
Always a bright spot in my day to see a new video from Ryan and the channel
I liked bloopers at the and. This is the best MC/MJ channel!
When you have an old ratchet bike that you're trying to upgrade/fix electrical issues with a soldering iron is nearly a must, I probably used a soldering iron a good 100 times on my old 1985 Suzuki RG80 and I've used it a handful of time even on my newer bikes, yes i wrote this before watching the video :)
I have that chain brush and I would argue it’s something that you 100% need.
this man does the most. he deserves most. he didnt need to calculate all the grip stuff but did. an absolute goat!
“Tank slapper followed by a flamboyant death” - 👌👏👏
In the trucking industry, 'Equal' ; kinda looked like a bag of oatmeal. Filled with sand and was put into the steer axle tire for balancing as well.
Beads would save me so much trouble balancing as I change tires 2+ times a year! Sadly, I'd only be able to use them on my winters, as .. well, that 200kph limit is a problem come summer.
The fuel pump, though, I'm all over that. I've a huge Jerry can, and would love to buy a lot of gas when it's cheaper vs little bits so regularly. Nice to be able to top up at home before a big ride too.
I might not need these gadgets but I do NEED FortNine videos, on anything!
the bloopers at the end have left me totally disillusioned. i thought ryan was perfection incarnate, come to find out, he is as human as the rest of us. i now weep for my lost innocence. that tire re-groover is an old idea. i was a mechanic in the 80's, and the shop i worked at had one on a shelf behind the tire siping machine that had to be from the 50's by the look of it.
A true genius with an enjoyable, humorous and informative presentation every time
I'd watch your videos even if I didnt ride. Your humor is off the chain
Those chain brushes are great! Had one for years (although spread to put on the chain and compress to clean, then just wizz the wheel round a few times). But I guess the old way works too :)
I don't ride a motorcycle or even own one, and I think I rode one briefly back when I was 11 or 12 ish. But I still love watching FortNine's videos.
I refuse to close the video until the video has played in its entirety, good sir.
One of the few youtubers telling us to stop watching and start doing, and I respect that.
Also damn it's been an age since I did any decent trail riding
Got them all except transfer pump, i use a jiggler with brass ball at the end to transfer fuel.
