Here is a list of 11 accessories I recommend, coming from an actual motorcyclist.
1: Frame sliders+spools.
2: Security chain.
3: Battery tender.
4: Chain alignment tool.
5: Center stand.
6: Throttle lock.
7: Heated grips
8: Tire rope plugs.
9: Chain brush.
10: Pinlock visor.
11: GPS theft tracker.
Seconded + Disclock. Spend the money on good protective gear not the weird stuff on this vid.
I agree with you, these things aren’t needed at all, I like the concept of a HUD but it’s more of a gimmick at this point
I could write a list 4 pages long of things I want and need 😂 gets expensive
Can you explain pinlock visor?
@@kris54241 a pin lock visor is an insert that goes inside your helmet visor to create an air barrier that keeps fog out of the helmet and off the visor. Some pin locks are helmet specific, like Shoei. Others are generic. The pinlock brand is highly regarded as the best version.
Frame sliders? You mean my clutch lever and rear blinker? Mine slid across an empty parking lot on those.
Stay in school, kids. Don't do wheelies on Harleys. It's an expensive hobby, and money spent on fixing a dropped Harley could have been spent on safer hobbies like doing drugs.
It feels like this was made by someone that doesnt ride a motorcycle
It feels like your statement was made by someone that doesn't ride a motorcycle... or doesn't have a job to afford any of this stuff.
@@baconoverlord7982 what's up with you? The majority of riders cannot afford any of this, many of us are on a budget
@@baconoverlord7982 i say that cause these are some of the dumbest "gadgets" for motorcyclist. They're a cliche.
@@baconoverlord7982 Because it totally makes sense for riders to spend 600+ on a helmet hud instead of 50-80 on just securely mounting your phone to your handlebar. You can get mounts that put it well within your field of vision so you don’t have to look away from the road.
And that is only one example from the video. Having a job has nothing to do with it, it’s a complete and utter waste of money.
Even if you added all the fancy hands free Bluetooth and other features to that phone mount package with a cardo it’d still be half the price and be equally viable.
@@michaelm.3641 I just stopped watching when the first thing that he showed was a friggin HUD for your helmet. I mean that has to be the worst possible gadget to get that I can imagine. Something that clogs your field of view and distracts you. No sane motorcyclist would get this. Jose is absolutely right in his statement. And as you say, having a phone on your mount is both cheaper and better.
Here's my list of must haves. Gasoline. And the Spirit of a free human being.
No no first must have is money to buy a bike
Pretty sure you forgot mind-altering drugs... for your list.
Stop using Fossil fuels we are destroying the Planet
And a condom for any case
My bike has ‘spirit of a free human being’ as a preset rider mode. It won’t switch on unless you’re wearing a bandanna.
Better title would be a bunch of trendy gadgets you may want for your motorcycle, but you don't really need
especially adding more lights for better 'visability'
Cars won't see you because of unintentional blindness, more lights doesn't help the situation, driving habits do
More like a bunch of stuff we got paid to put into a thinly disguised promo video.
but you don't need and can't afford
11 things that don't really work an you won't use
11 kickstarter gadgets that have gone nowhere.
I've ridden for years and while I agree that these are things most riders would not view as "must-haves" - some of these are exactly the things we would have if only we could afford them. As someone who is out there in traffic, not being seen by car drivers, and old enough to know how quickly things can break bad, I would have those light up boots, that airbag jacket, and a helmet light right now if they were in my budget.
Fortnine did a video reviewing the different air-bag vests available, including costs and re-use, replace.
If you can afford a 5k motorcycle then you can afford these
none of these are must haves and all of these have far better solusion that are cheaper excpet the vest if you want procteion you spend the big bucks
cell phone on a ram mount covers like 75% of these gopro solves the other 25 cause you can track gopros nowdays
@@steve00alt70 Right now, my $1400 bike that I purchased in 2005 with an income tax refund because I could not find a car I could afford, is sitting in the parking lot of my apartment complex. The bike needs a new ignition that I can't afford right now because I have other bills to pay. It's a good thing that I live in a place with public transportation because I'll be on the bus for the next two weeks. See, having a tax refund of $1400 back in 2005 does not mean that I currently have stacks of cash laying around. Money just doesn't work that way.
Same
These aren't must have.. Just things that exists if you need. Maybe
🔥yuy
yes you are correct
Yea. Some are things that I need but some it's ok for not to have
I agree with you except for the fobo. I have it and "need-ish" it lol
About 70% of these are honestly pointless. The computer helmet would be unbearably hot in traffic, and anything lighting up on your body like that is an unneeded distraction.
Alternative title: "I messaged motorcycle gear manufacturers and asked for sponsorship. Here is the list of 11 companies that accepted the terms"
If you have the Phone call, Music and hud, you also need the airbag vest for Sure. 🤦🏽♂️
And you need a car after that lol
Not really, A Hud provides useful information without you having to remove your attention from hazards.
You are 100% correct about talking on the phone while riding though, just don't do it.
Well said
First thing:
why am I getting more entertainment reading comments than watching video?✌️
Amazing how I survived in the 60s on bare bikes no heated suits or any other crap they pedal these days.
Buy a bike stick on a skid lid and ride the bloody thing, job done
Survivor bias
@@DonaldMohrMusic Survivor ?
Its not war its just riding a motorcycle.
Its attitude that kills more than anything thats why accident percentage wise women are safer riders than men .
They think consequence,too many men have a Im an expert attitude
been riding 40 years, africa, asia , europe... never needed any of these
@@Lee-70ish survivor bias is a logical fallacy. it describes the problem with the "well I never had a problem with/without ________"
back then didnt have people driving around staring at a phone instead of the road lol
"11 Highly Distracting motorcycle accessories that will certainly break your concentration while riding"
@Chris Reagin right lmao. The phone thing is stupid but some of these are pretty cool.
@@fuckthepopulation8109 Actually I agree to this some of them were scrap but the riding jacket and rear light was the best among the lot
@Chris Reagin that air vest will do very little.
The phone thing is not bad aswell, having your speed, rpm and other dash information at eye level is a good thing, but of course if you start making phone call and listen to music, it's différent
@@ChaoticMartian That is so wrong of you to say, many riders, me included, have crashed with a Helite airbag vest and without a doubt it saved my life in the one time I did have an accident, that thing is crazy strong and immobilizes your neck and helmet. without a doubt Helite is one of the most if not the most important necessity for a rider after a helmet of course.
This guy sounds like he’s reading from a translated Chinese user manual.
bicycle-r ahahah
Others wrote this before and I'll join them: All those things are very far away from what a normal rider would call "must-have". Just stupid overpriced luxury gadgets. Like what you'd expect a car-guy to get when trying to get into motorcycling.
Lol I bet whoever recommended these doesn’t even own any of them. Probably just saw them online thinking they were cool and made into a video. "Must have" my arse.
What gives it away is that the dual intercom and cameras are trash, let alone the HUD for helmets complete trash as well but these sure sound like cool ideas
The helite airbag is actually legit.
@Carreidas yeah I like those and am actually getting one for this coming riding season but overall list was very uneducated in terms of product performance beyond what they advertise the products as
the most useful thing in the whole video, the dynamoto bike stands, isn't even to be found anywhere..
Absolutely right...
Those boots are hilarious.. more likely your gunna get a car crashing into you because the driver is laughing so hard.
"11 Most Unnecessary bike accessories that only satisfy your consumerism"
I own the Quad Lock phone mount, is pretty good, used at the track for lap times. Also have a airbag jacket "have not tested the airbag portion of it" yet 😄👍
Must-have motorcycle accessories
1.) Rider's gear = body protection
2.) Handguards = to protect your clutch in case you drop your bike
3.) Skidplate = protects your engine from road debris
4.) Handlebar chest foam = dampens your impact to the handlebar in case you crash
5.) Phone holder = as the name suggest if your bike doesn't have a built in navigation technology
Most of the aformentioned items are just luxury blings you can live without, some of them could even endanger your life or the others so if your a beginner rider then it might be better to have these first...
I did 200 km, never had skid plate except for off-road and never had issue.
do you have research to back those claims up?
Gear/protection is not an accessory, it's an essential. ;-)
The rest, except no.5, are just something you'd need on an off-road bike as you can't even mount them on sportbikes.
All i need is the bike!!!
No, you need to work first and collect the salary to buy one
@@arifhakimi7224 kind of a pointless remark kid.
He ment all he needs is the bike not all the aftermarket gadgets.
Felt it
@@arifhakimi7224 or just still one
2 wheels an engine and a handlebar are “must have”
@justan idiot Yes and a saddle is also nice ofc.
the accessory is a significant other on the pillion
The airbag is intimidating. I like to puff up while squaring off for a good bar fight.
A lot of the safety stuff is good, telling the drivers around you what’s going on, I’m all for that
How about simply turn your head and use mirrors?
Unfortunately many of the items listed (HUD, cameras, helmets, boots) are not available or have a poor quality rating. The Garmin Zumo, from past experience, is great, though. Not sure if I can find the motorcycle stands to fit my bikes
I bought the Fobo bike 2 based on the recommendations from this video. It runs about $100.00 U.S. dollars and it was fairly easy to install.
I love the fact that I no longer have to search for or remove my saddlebag on my Road King to access the valve stem.
The only down side is at 4:50 in the video I wish the picture of the bike with the PSI values was the actual picture of my bike and not that blue sport bike.
What's the battery life of the gizmos?
@@ctrlaltdelete200390
Well this comment is 9 months old and it's still going.
I'm guessing it has the same battery life as a watch battery since that's what it takes.
I bought Fobo bike 2 because of this video too. I agree with you. Wish I could customize it a bit more. Realized early on that I need to logout each time I stop riding because the program runs constantly in the background and is a drain on my cellphone battery. It's super convenient to check tire pressures. Never need to remove the stem caps. Just login on my phone and stand near my bike. Instant pressure readings. :-)
I bought cheap aliexpress things that were similar. Invaluable. Long battery life. Life on the commute got way easier. No more air leakage catching you off guard.
@@michiganborn8303 Well maybe stupid question. But doesnt it disbalance your wheel because of its "weight"? After all, ordinary cups weight nothing.
It’s one of those “robot marketing” videos.

3:13 lmao, the lady was like, "*rolls eyes*, not again"
the first one is actually really cool! that eye ride system seems like it would definitely help with navigation. the less cool part of it is the fact that it costs 600 dollars. -_- for just a little bit more money i can have the helite airbag vest which is genuinely an amazing product and every motorcyclist who can afford it should purchase. but as for the eye ride. if they can get it down to the 2-300 dollar range theyll find that more people are going to be willing to buy it.
It also adds upwards of 200g to your helmet, with the bulk being at the back making it both straining and uncomfortable.
The more people buy, the less it'll cost. Production cost to demand usually drives the price up or down. So buy one, and have all your friends buy one, so one day I can get it for less. Lol
@@MrKinghuman yeah, it’s going to need another planet to pump demand up enough to drop the price via scaling. Chances are any spikes in demand will result in raised prices for the foreseeable future
@@MrKinghuman yea. I don’t think cost to demand works like that. As long as people are willing to pay top dollar, companies won’t lower their price.
@@getrippt it dosent work its trash
When riding a motorcycle you need to concentrate and keep your eyes on the road - it could make the difference between ending up in a wheel chair. If you really want lots of gadgets to stay safe just get a car. Re accessories - I got some heated gloves because I live in a cold climate and cold hands most definitely take the pleasure out of the ride - safe biking everyone!!
I live with old motorcycle with no fancy tech and I'm still fine.
U are soo poor😢😢😢
@@jdvlogs6235 Ur name is Rahul
sounds gay for me
Depends on how you are using your bike. For shirt travels within city it's fine.
But what if you need to travel around the country for some road tour. The uncertainties are too high for an ordinary stock bike to help us with
@@jdvlogs6235 look at your haircut buddy😂

Livall is like a cyberpunk 2077 hud. I love it!
Can't wait for a helmet with built in HUD. Especially since we are already paying through the roof for standard lids.
In France, 80% of car drivers that hit a motorcycle told the police that they "didn't see the bike"... an excellent reason to add a light or two to your helmet 😁😁😁

@@vguedouani Merci pour l'info 😁😁😁
Yup. LIGHTS and Stuff to make you VISIBLE are Definitely THE most important thing. I got into a bike accident over 30 years ago from an idiot unlicensed driver taking daddies car out for a joyride and blew through a stop sign at 40mph. Still have back muscle cramps from it to this day despite working out, stretching, massage therapy, etc. As a drive I've seen how small bikes are even when close. Today I ride my Ebike and I have six headlights, two tail lights with one fast flasher on and numerous large pieces of reflective tape on the front forks, rear and side frames of my ebike., I wear a DayGlo reflective vest, helmet and gloves and I hit the horn for everything and of course ALWAYS ASSUME a driver does NOT see you. Hell I've had drivers coming right at me even while flashing my high beam right at then and hitting my Loud 120DB motorcycle 12v Horn I adapted for my ebike and STILL they barely swerved 7 feet from me. People are just MENTALLY looking for BIG objects like Cars and even with Dayglo stuff, Bright LED lights, etc... you still have to constantly watch out.. though I've found that people overall now give me a WIDE birth when I'm passing. In fact many are Afraid to pass me even when I'm hugging the curb on my bike until I Wave them past.
If I ever get another Motorcycle I'd jazz it up the Same way with MORE lights, Reflective tape all over and wear my Dayglo colors, Body armor etc.. If I had Armor back in the day My Back would be fine right now.
That’s what they say in most cases. If more motorcyclist were aware of the fact that most of us are struck by cars that are turning left, we might prevent some accidents by riding cautiously through intersections. I see so many of my fellow motorcyclist that ride obliviously through intersections or do not pay attention to cars at t-intersections. Ride safe my friends.
It appears your idea of what I must have - and what I actually need are drastically different!
Agree. Riding a motorcycle is about escape not distractions
Yep!!
My must have at all times is cameras. Be it GoPro or other. I was sandwiched between a Honda and a Jeep in a hit and run a couple years ago and ever since then, ive always had some form of video device on my bike or helmet.
Have ridden for 40 plus years and never NEEDED one of these
I like the airbag jacket. That’s neat.
0:53
Always fist bump your buddies after you ride up to a cliff edge together.
4:00 "It'll turn as you turn". But the rider doesn't turn. Makes little difference, as while cornering you are looking ahead anyways, but it's not really a selling argument.
It’s only a selling point to people who don’t ride motorcycles lol
The last helmet is awesome, and I want those blinky boots!
I say that jacket with an air bag is a Must have
I was thinking about a drink holder
Dont forget a popcorn maker
Why not an "Ashtray" to?
Do yourself a favor fellow bikers, take it from a guy who toured Europe with a Garmin and a TomTom, the TomTom is by far a superior and more accurate GPS.
That helmet at the end is a must have. If you want to barrel down the motorway at 150mph feeling like iron man that’s the one for you 😂
Those were amazing. Never even knew. Gonna buy a few of those products
If these were must have accessories, they could have shown at least one rider using all these together !!
Please don't encourage these people anymore than necessary. They just do it to get attention and brag about all this expensive tech they have.

Here I've been riding for 30 years without these gadgets and surviving.
Anybody else get a quad lock ad on the quad lock segment😂
Them shorty boots are
How not to forget to charge all these things.
The air bag jacket and livell smart helmet are the only two truly useful ones I saw.
legs and arms need more protection than torso most bike injuries are to limbs
a few of these i had not heard of before...thanks for the vid mate
The only things that got my attention that would be useful. Is the cameras for the bike and helmet. The inflatable jacket and the center phone holder where you twist your phone to lock and unlock it.
All you need is high reflecting tape!
I have it on my bike and helmet and you can see me clearly in weak light at night!
In India, the most important accessory of Bike is having a horn.
i feel ya my man. i feel ya
Or having a bike 😄
And a great knowledge of curse words
Very cool stuffs
I appreciate the content. Cool to see the steps tech is making to make motorcycles safer.
So which accessory, in the video, exactly makes a motorcycle safer???
So motorcycles are always going to be more dangerous. There is nothing that can be done about that. I just think it's cool to see technology advancing. This guy was getting a lot of hate from people in the comments, I just wanted to help his day. :) There is some tech like abs and things that helps with motorcycles. Have a great day
@@rudolfmajcen5349 Airbag vest, Light shoes.
@@rudolfmajcen5349 well if i hit the ground i would rather have the inflating vest on the not, and no i dont own one, yet.
No phones calls when you ride!
i swear..if u wanna make a call while riding pull over to safely thats what should be done
@@Vishakh1733 Opinion on music When riding? Gonna be getting motorcycle later on. First time rider and wondering thoughts on listening to music while riding, later on down the road once i been riding for while.
how are phonecalls different to intercom?
My pocket is going to feel this
Wow!! A $700 airbag jacket- I’ll probably get two- just in case.
If you have to deploy your airbag jacket numerous times ---- you better sell the motorcycle or go to a proper certified motorcycle safety school : )
The stem mount for a phone is dangerous. The time you spend looking down at a phone can be long enough for you to crash into something. Plan your route and put the phone away in your backpack.
Yeah, just stop in the side of the road, check the map and go ahead again
@@n0b0dy07 What did people do before smart phones / GPS / internet
I agree with you
I could see using the airbag many times doing motocross. The frequency of falling off would be much higher.
Great video showing all sorts of gadgets for your bike if that’s your thing, I run the Garmin Zumo on my Super Tenere. It also has the tyre pressure monitor function in it but you do have to buy the sensors separately. Just a point of interest, if you hard wire your camera directly to the battery as indicated in the video it won’t turn on and off with the ignition. Thanks for showing what’s out there.
Genuine question: Is a Garmin device better than using Google maps on a smartphone? If so, how?
Hi , I find the Garmin system works no matter where I am so long as it can register the satellite network (so long as I’m not under metal roofs) also it has my topographical map card in it. Cheers.
@@sn5953 Also if you lose the Garmin or get in an accident in the middle of nowhere you're not stranded!
Hello.Thank you for your work.Good luck on the roads.
Thank you for sharing this information 👍

Fun fact
I dont give a shit, neither do they , cause there are no flowers that high!
This feels like SkyMall for motorcycles.
Lol nice
2:38 what a way to slip a karen into this video. Lol
very professional, Thanks!
If you hardwire the camera to the battery it isn't going to turn on and off with your ignition. It will actually stay on. You'd have to splice it in to the ignition in the harness to get it to come on with the key.
I would not splice into the ignition. Bad idea. Mess that wire you're in trouble.
Instead use a powered relay and tap into the rear break light power wire, so when the bike powers the light (aka ON) then the device is powered.
I have the sena 10c pro really nice video and you can listen music too another helpful will be the airbag jacket other 9 on the list you dont really need it.
You don't need any of those.
@@rudolfmajcen5349 wonder how many lives could have been saved with the jacket. Problem is they expensive.
I want the Smartie Boots! LMFAO
The best motorcycle accessory has not been mentioned : the Beeline GPS Repeater !!!
Lol I was thinking the girl on the bike at the start, was the accessory! 🤣🤣🤣
7:07 good news for motorcycle thief's
I was thinking the same thing :).
Still, they are great for moving your bike in your garage.
A baseball bat is great for smashing someone's skull in, but they're also great for playing baseball.
The first one is really cool
great sharing dude👍🏻
always pay complete attention to your phone while riding a motorcycle. got it.
i can say the quad lock works really well .it stays on my bikes at speeds of 140 plus
Vibrates your phone to death though
In terms of safety features, having a "dash" cam and airbag is great!
But they are expensive. If you can afford it, maybe think about getting one.
Stay safe!
The jury is out for me on an airbag. I have been riding since the early 80's crashed many times (enough to loose count). At least 3 times over 100 mph (on a racetrack). No such thing as an air bag back then, pretty thin 2nd or maybe 3rd hand Bates leathers with no armor for the first crash. And for the second another thin set of Vanson leathers. The crashes consumed those thin leathers but not my skin! And the for the third fast crash a much thicker set of Z Custom leathers with armor and a back protector for the third. I have also had numerous street crashes including being rear ended on the freeway at 55 MPH (wearing jeans and a nylon jacket, not even a scratch . . a miracle . . actually I think I surfed the bike for a bit and rolled out of it to stop on my feet). They say off-road is safer . . guess again . . no rules out there, in the dirt I had a head on collision (me on a 2000 CR250) with a VW dune buggy both going 45 mph at impact. . . . Ouch! but no broken bones ever. But I can say with the back protector on the 100 mph crash, and this is the original Dainese protector, so anything on the market now is better than that. With that protector it was downright comfy sliding along up and over turn 6 at Willow Springs. I have never been injured in the area that the airbag covers . . . except maybe with the head-on with the dune buggy it would have worked nice there. . . but so did the cheapest chest-back-roost protector from cyclegear (nothing broken despite ejecting and flying 30 feet onto my head / back . . u but it did hurt really bad!). Leather was enough for all my road crashes (std mx gear for the dirt crash). . . . That doesn't mean it can't happen a different way next time for me or completely different for you . . . but once I'm on the ground I have my techniques and tendencies so I am willing to take that risk with the equipment I have since it has served me well and has been fully tested. I have hit my head hard enough to see static and have demolished numerous sets of gloves so I tend to make sure those bases are covered with the best I can get my hands on. That and protect your extremities that can flail around and slap the ground hard . . .hands, knees, elbows and feet . . . at least that's what gets torn up on me nearly every time I crash . . No airbag helmet, gloves, knee, elbow or ankle protection yet. . . . which is why the jury is out for me.
Can’t wait to get that futuristic helmet for my motorcycle
I can’t find any in market
@@sammaleki110 I'm probably just going to buy a ruroc helmet since they're more reliable and safe. ;)
All i need is gas the sun and the wind in my beard
And the bugs in your teeth!
all i need is fuel fuck the sun i ride wind hail or cat5 hurrcain (Australia we dont have snow in qld )
Darn my boots are flat again. Why not just use brake lights and indicators that are already installed on the bike.
oh no my boots are wet fuck
Excellent products. I'd love to get the lights built into my regular motorcycle boots. Shorties sound like ankle damage waiting to happen. Yikes
CAREUD TPMS protects you with smooth and happy motorcyle travel!
Thanks for providing prices
Prices vary by country and retailer. Duh.
If you have to ask... you can't afford it. 🤑
I need..this helmet with all accessories how much
I can't find it.... it's not a thing yet...
Probably the most amazing thing on the list, being the jacket, is also one of the most expensive ones. Its also absurdly expensive just to have that PROPRITARY cartridge replaced. So if it accidentally goes off (something I've seen people mention before) you are either out a few hundred dollars getting a new cartridge OR have a worthless vest. The one that is based on GPS is even worse as it has a subscription ON TOP of the already overly expensive jacket, so if you don't have your monthly sub paid up and crash then you are SOL just like any other time.
The tech is cool, and very well could be life saving, but when you combine it with greed instead of a company that is all about making the lives of the people who enjoy the same hobby better, well then you get something that could save lives that won't be doing so because no one can afford to have it.
Brake free light attaches to your helmet and is larger view for braking both types. Also it works day or night and you don’t need to connect it to anything just put it on your helmet and charge it and go. It was featured on shark tank. The cosmo light is really small. Most of the other stuff on this list is useless plus no one has made an actual smart helmet yet and if they do it will be super expensive.
I have not listened to the radio’s on any of my machines.. I have not used the CD players either. I prefer paper maps to navigation systems. I want to see where I’m going, not where I am and all the alternative roads that I have not been on yet. my BMW, and my Goldwing had so many unnecessary extras, I wish I could’ve bought the machines stripped..The only extras I like are cruise control, heated grips, self canceling turn signals, and reverse.. years ago, I had a Yamaha venture royale it was loaded with standard goodies, but you could buy a brand new Yamaha venture without all the extras at one time. my venture royale actually had a sound system/radio that I could remove from the left side of the faring pocket with the ignition key, which I did the day I brought it home. I did not put it back in until I sold the machine 17 years later, for more money than I paid for it actually.
The 700,000+ miles I have behind Bars over five decades, I did not share the ride with the radio. CD player, CB, or even the intercom
can’t they please make a motorcycle with all that extra stuff.
One more thing. I will never buy another BMW
Better use xgrip phone holder instead of this quad lock, still having a higher chance of falling off
Thank You for Sharing. its really helpful
Great info never knew the technology exists .im an old school Biker ! NEED TO CHANGE I GUESS NOW
Or not
6:39 literally the perfect way to steal your bike without unlocking your front fork
Good thinking :o
You wouldn't use these in situations where theft is a possibility, they are really convenient to put your bike into a storage area with tight corners
@@Robin-ox2mz think about it instead of lifting the heavy bike and put it in the van they use this.
Also there are a lot of people who own bikes think by locking the front fork prevents theft 😆
@@kings8217 oh yeah its a good tool for thieves too, for sure. Nothing can protect your bike if the thief has enough time, no matter how secure it is.
Just locking front is bypassed in seconds, no need for a van a simple tool is enough.
'Literally the perfect way'? That's as opposed to figuratively the perfect way, is it? Moron.
Ironic that the people seen riding with the light up boots were wearing very little decent protection otherwise. Some tips from someone who works in a motorcycle gear store, if you are going for an airbag I'd suggest buying the Dainese smart jacket, it's expensive but a lot more proven with MotoGP tech included. Helmet lights have only just recently been legalised in for example the Netherlands so be careful because it might result in a massive fine depending on were you live. In general, fairly certain this video was made by someone who has never been on a motorcycle because huds are really not that needed nor in a stage were they are actually functional.
Only quadlock i can recommend, they also have a great customer base.
Also the garmin xt zumo, i use it as a speedo, and maps so i can use my phone for calling and stuff
The jacket is cool.
Actually, they are very hot! Little air circulation.
@@dougfielding8215 Better too hot than dying tho
Many of these are not road legal in the UK. We are not allowed any sort of distraction inside the helmet so any sort of HUD cannot be used. I'm pretty sure the light up boots are also a no no.
Also. These are not must have items.
Well... its the UK so not much is legal. Its a bit of a nanny state.
I wonder if those huge tire pressure/temp sensors will require rebalancing of the wheels?
Yes, they look rather chunky so certainly on high speed road bikes I'd add them before balancing at tyre fitters.
Nice! But I don't have bike hahaha😂
this is very cool... Mahalo from Honolulu!!
The TPMS stem caps is a bad idea. The stem isn't designed to hold a tight seal on the outer edge and the sensor will get loose with vibration letting the air out of your tire. They have had indicating tire stem caps for years and they are more trouble than they are worth.
The sensor needs to be inside the tire where it doesn't create a leak path.
True and the added weight on the valve at speed will cause to leak your tyre anyway, that's why they tell you not to use LED lit caps.
@@will4may175 so what would you guys recommend?
I could be wrong, but I bet that the manufacturer thought of that. Ya know?🤔
@@dixiekayaker805 If that were the case this product wouldn't exist. Maybe if it replaced the entire stem it could be OK. Then the seal isn't the cap. It would still be prone to damage and the weight may fatigue a rubber stem causing premature failure though.
Fundamentally it is a bad design when it can instead just be placed in the tire where protected and doesn't risk leaking, or problems with the stem.
@@freshsodaa7023 If you really want tmps on a motorcycle get one that is in the tire. It isn't that hard to pop the tire off the bead and insert it. I would guess that you can do it without taking the tire off as well.
It is going to mess up your wheel balance though, and IMO doesn't really increase safety unless factory installed. Maybe you could put a bead locker on the opposite side to help balance it. This one relies on bluetooth, which means it must be on, it must connect (which I have enough troubles with headphones, let alone a safety device), the app has to be running in the background draining battery, when it indicates you have to somehow notice it on a generally loud vehicle and if it does tell you the pressure is dropping it would have to be a slow leak to be able to react in enough time.
The times I have had a flat on a motorcycle it was always a puncture by nail or screw. The tire deflates somewhat slowly and starts feeling mushy, ie it feels/handles wrong. This causes you to look down and see the flat.
There are just too many things that have to go right for these devices to help, so I cannot see the value. If flats were the big concern, I would foam fill the tire. That probably isn't done on high speed bikes though as it likely messes up the way the tire rebounds.
