    I'm 70 years old and have five bikes. I've been riding since I was about 13 years old. I of course don't do stunt riding but I also don't wear boots (feels just too clunky). I wear armored sneakers, I can feel the foot controls better. I do wear armored riding jeans, an armored leather jacket. I wear an assortment of helmets (depending on weather, what I'm riding, how far I'm riding etc.) Hey you ride your ride the way you want not the way someone else is comfortable with. Just my opinion.

    Plenty of racers are well aware of the rear brake, and YamahaChamp school has a whole focus on teaching people rear brake because of the myth that sport motorcycles dont really need a rear brake. "No rear brake" for racing is an outdated method, now days motoamerica, motogp, Isle of Man TT and especially the king of the batters they all have a very highly skill developed use of the rear brake. Yamaha champshool's ChampU has a whole teaching segment on just the rear brake. Kyle Wyman is a teacher/parisipation assistant at ChampSchool, the guy who rides SE's Road Glide for king of the baggers. He's a super accomplished superbike racer.

    5:33 - Closing remarks and channel promotion
    Summary with Key Points:
    The video addresses the topic of wearing boots and jeans while riding a motorcycle. 🏍
    The presenter, Ryan Cruzy, shares his personal experiences and reasons for not wearing boots while riding. He emphasizes the importance of brake control and the inability to feel the brake with boots on. 🚫🥾
    He compares the ankle support of boots to high-top sneakers and argues that both offer similar protection. He also mentions that motocross riders and road racers wear boots for different reasons. 👟 vs 🥾
    Ryan discusses the misconception that jeans offer better protection during accidents. He argues that jeans can melt into road rash, making the injury worse. 👖🔥
    He shares a personal anecdote about a confrontation with another rider who criticized him for not wearing boots. He highlights the irony of the critic not wearing a proper helmet. 🤔
    The video concludes with Ryan emphasizing personal choice and the importance of understanding the nuances of stunt riding before making judgments. 🔄
    Key Items:
    Brake control and feeling: ✅🛑
    Boots hindering brake control: ❌🥾
    Ankle support comparison: ➡👟
    Jeans melting into road rash: ❌👖🔥
    Personal choice and understanding stunt riding: ✅🔄
    Boot Types:
    Work Boots: Ryan mentions that he wears work boots at work but not on his Harley-Davidson. Instead, on his Harley, he wears what he describes as "appropriate riding shoes." 🥾
    High-Top Sneakers: He compares the ankle support of boots to high-top sneakers, specifically mentioning Vans high tops. He argues that both types of footwear offer similar ankle protection. 👟
    Military Combat Boots: He brings up an example of their mechanic, Dave, who wears military combat boots with steel toes. Despite wearing these protective boots, Dave still experienced injuries during an accident. 🥾🔩
    Motocross Boots: Ryan mentions that motocross riders wear boots, but they use their motorcycles differently, with less reliance on rear brake control. 🏍🥾
    Road Race Boots: He notes that road racers also wear boots but points out that they don't use the rear brake as much as he does in his style of riding. 🛣🥾
    In summary, Ryan is discussing a range of boots, from work boots to specialized motorcycle riding boots. His main argument is that while these boots might offer protection in certain scenarios, they can hinder the precise brake control required in his style of stunt riding.

    I hear your point, Man. For stunting it might be different. However motorcycle specific boots offer MUCH more protection and support for your ankle. The riding pants offer impact and abrasion protection. I have been in a bad wreck. Will not ride without my gear. I would be dead without my full face helmet.

So that’s cool whatever you wanna do this is America you live with the fuck you wanna ride and you wear what the fuck do you wanna wear. God bless America. God bless you and yours.

Most people who ride are well aware of the risks of how they ride. I don’t tell other people how to ride their shit, they’re grown. They can make their own decisions.

    I get that same shit every time I ride. I don’t do anything like you do on a bike but, I am a fucking skateboarder and board feel is everything. So if I can feel how the bike is talking to me while I am riding the same way a board talks to me when I am skating, then I am in tune with what the hell is going on.

    With respect, I ride 600 miles a week into work and back, more if I head into the mountains on the weekend. I wear jeans and boots because they're warm enough for So Cal mornings, cool enough for summer days and they're appropriate where I work. If I wore shorts and tennis shoes I'd freeze my balls off. Not only that I'm getting peppered by rocks, sand and any other shit people didn't feel they needed to secure in the bed of there truck. Don't think I wanna face that in shorts.
    What I guess I'm sayin' is I think you should dress for the conditions. You do what works for you man. I'll keep watchin'.

    Not a stunt guy but I've set my bike up for mountain roads. Muscling a Sportster around tight Appilacian twistes requires similar feel. I really like having just the right gloves so I can feel the bars and thin sole boots work for me on the brake pedal. I can imagine stunting takes that to the next level so i can appreciate the need for specific gear.

    When I wadded up my bagger doing well over 80, my shoes came off, my jeans got shredded and my tank top was gone. The good news is that your skin, finger nails, etc. grows back, so no worries ;). I still ride my bikes to the beach wearing flip-flops, trunks and a tank top. If I’m wearing boots and leathers, it’s because it’s in the 40’s or below. I don’t care what anyone says, comfort over safety rules the day . You want safety? Drive your car or truck and drink your beer out of a sippy cup.

    It's all about freedom to choose. It makes a lot of sense that you need the precise feel for stunting. Me personally, I ride my street bike with motocross boots. But I come from a dirt riding background and have been on dirt bikes since 1970. It's what I feel comfortable wearing when I ride. I have always worn a lot of gear, but don't rely on it to save me. Better to rely on skills.

    Absolutely no question about it. A good pair of skate shoes like 'es Accel OGs are gonna give you the best ability to control your motorcycle and not crash! Once you crash from wearing stormtrooper size boots that gave you zero feel on the pegs, shifter or rear brake it's too late! Long distance touring is one thing. But if your pushing the bike to its limits for a relatively short period of time, your gonna have a way easier time of it when you can actually get input back from the motorcycle through your feet!
