Almost all of this gear is discontinued at this point. What a shame! Would love an update.

The quintessential reason why I love Ryan and his reviews, honest direct and on point! Keep it up! Many of us really appreciate, and understand, the work you are putting into your channel. As always, looking forward to your future content.

Ryan, I’ve been a big fan of you and your show for a while now. I’ve ridden motorcycles my whole life and recently purchased an Adventure bike. You are by far the least bias reviewer I’ve seen and one of my most trusted opinions on the subject. Keep up the great work! -Wyatt, from Oregon

that ''HELLO'' in the beginning haha

Never plan on buying any ADV gear, still watched the video all the way through, love everything you guys do, keep doing it!

Valuable insights. I didn’t realize that MX boots were a good alternative for adventure - your logic makes sense about the lower cost based on target audience. Love the channel, thanks for the great work

I bought the Bell MX-9 Adventure before the MIPS version came out and I still love it! Huge eye port (and a tinted shield), goggle compatibility, and the perfect amount of dirt-flavour for a Supermoto

This is your best intro yet, period

One of the best motorcycle gear channels out there

I just placed my first order of the year last week. Getting my adventure bike project ready to roll!

...great insights on gear I'd not yet heard of - nicely done!

Awesome bra! I love your reviews, keep it up!

I love Fieldsheer. I picked up a FS Sugo on a Cyber Monday deal a couple years ago for a little over $100 USD. Regularly retails in the $330 range. Thing is built like a tank and was an incredible bang for the buck. I upgraded the stock Vault style CE armor to some CE2 Forcefield. Still came out $100 less than the retail price. I'm incredible happy with how it has held up.

Excellent video. It is easy to find quality gear at a high price. Ryan tells us how to find quality gear at a reasonable price. I have already ordered the boots in the video.

Sweet, I love this channel.

I love Thor MX products

Loving this series

That was a pretty awesome spin you did there at the beginning.

I got the REV'IT! Striker 2 Gloves on your advice ........... FORTNINE!!!! and there really good very happy thx.

I miss the video blog men, talking about everything. Nice video, like always

I run that jacket daily, it's the best for versatility and comfort. Additionally, I have it in high-viz yellow providing blinding visibility at all times and in all weather. I highly recommend for anyone looking for a steal of a jacket, good recommendation Ryan!

Nice video. Thanks. Be good to update for this year. Also, it reminded me a bit of Andertons music shop vids where they show you how to sound like “famous guitarist X” on a budget. They also do versions sometimes blowing the budget- which can be interesting too for people who want to spend once for something that lasts, and/or want to see (if the top end stuff) which is actually worth the investment. 😎👍🏻

I ended up getting the white, blue, yellow MX9 Adventure MIPS Torch thanks to your excellent in-depth review and insight! Thanks! BTW, the Shot X11 boots look exactly same as my roughly $100 O'Neal MX boots - I actually got my pair as refirbs for $78 due to someone returning them Not in the factory box though they were entirely brand new! Also worth knowing is the Arc Battleborn Boots are also the exact same model for around $120 here in the states... FYI

Pants are essential. I accidentally over reved my bike today, it slipped out of my hands and snatched me to the ground. I was wearing all protective gear but regular jeans. From an almost stand still I lost all material on the knee of the jeans and got some nasty road rash. Parents are allowing me to borrow some riding pants till I get mine. New to the game and rebuilding a bike before learning to ride

Love the studio

Awesome Ryan. As Always. Love from India.

Love all your videos about nearly everything we need and use. Ever think about one on batteries? Would be nice.

Fairly new to riding, but the mx-9 mips has treated me well. Well worth the money. Bonus was they have their snow version, so I put in the breath box since I ride in the winter. You could plug in an optional heated shield even.

Ryan….Fortnine…..Emergency…..! I’m running out of clips. (Genuinely helping my mental healthy. Jokes aside) but let rip guys! Crank out as much as you can. The only channel on YT I can say, love ya work and can’t get enough. You deserve all the successes life can provide. You’ve earned it. Thanks.

"Budget adventure gear" What's that?

I have a old pair of Fieldsheer mesh over pants, they have been one of the best riding pants I've ever owned. They seem to just get it and make decent stuff.

Love your vids man

First thing first, I started watching FortNine videos earlier this year while on deployment. I got hooked on the Africa Twin Review and I am working my way through the whole collection. I get a lot of useful information out of the videos and Ryan does a damn good job of explaining things at an approachable level. Props to you guys for the Letterkenny themed episode (another gem I discovered over this last year across the pond). It looks like I am late to the party on the Fieldsheer Adventure Tour Jacket. I thought I managed to get one but it was a Women's Large and that's when I discovered it was discontinued and a unicorn. I actually called Fieldsheer and asked them what they recommended and they offered up the High Pro Textile Jacket. Ryan, have you messed with the High Pro Textile at all and would it be a good sub for the Adventure Tour or should I just get a Firstgear Kathmandu? Also, if you guys want to test a Ducati Multistrada Enduro let me know, it's a bit of a ride from where I live but it would give me a great excuse to head North and I'd be up for letting you put it through it's paces.

Cool Video, Keep up the good work!

He just sold me on the Fieldsheer adventure and just bought it this week!

Between you and Mototrek I get my fix. Loved the cameo on you did on his channel. Keep up the good work! Also bummed that Fieldsheer discontinued this jacket... recommend any others?

Please do an updated version! It looks like they discontinued the Adventure Tour jacket.

Top class as always.

Another sick review Ryno! Let’s be friends! SAY YES!!

I've used the Bell MX 9 for about 2.5 years, fits my oval shaped head perfectly. I did just exchange it for a Nexx X-patrol, mainly due to the fact that the screws that hold the visor and peak in place on the MX-9 are very poor quality, when over tightening the screws, they come apart, and its really easy to do, and really hard to fix. Last week I was in Portugal with a helmet I didn't trust would last all the way home. Riding with goggles on the motorway is doable, but not exactly comfy. And Bell doesn't sell the screws separately.

Another great video

This, my friends, is not a video. It's a Bible. Thank you so much for this information is priceless!!

Great review man! I totally agree on your point about boots. I can't tell much difference between the two styles, but my wallet can.

We need an update for this one!

Very informative thanks for the links I will check them out ..

your videos are awesome!

You look like a dark haired Joffry from Game of Thrones. Great video!

Not an ADV rider and this is still a killer video.

Almost riding season Ryan!

Hi Ryan, I wait eagerly for every video you guys make, all the way from India. Can't you guys do a bit of vlogging (Wishful thinking)? SO that we could hear a bit about the moto industry and your views, and maybe about biking as well? :D And to all the guys watching from India, most of these products are available (apart from the jacket and goggles, though I bet you'll find some alternatives.) online. Cheers to everyone, safe riding :)

That jacket would fit me perfectly. You really should send it my way

The motocross boots tip...outstanding. You can borrow my sister.

I'd personally choose the Alpinestars tech 3 mx boot. It's got everything that the boot you reviewed had, but it's also got a blade piviting system, and it's super light.

Hey Ryan, try to do a cheap hot weather riding gear [ when i say hot, i mean HOT ] which is also somewhat protective , thanks

Great video

Okay Ryan... I'm trusting you on this jacket. Hopefully it lives up to your hype.

Check out the Tourmaster transition 4 jacket - it matches all of those jacket features, and it's cheaper; it's just not an adventure specific jacket, but still the best all round jacket i've ever seen

About Rev’ It!, they are quite affordable compared to A-stars, Dainese and Spidi and other ‘premium’ brands here in the Netherlands and their quality is as good and often better than a couple of other brands. They are very well priced and after hearing a lot of stories of riders at my local bike shops and driving school, they are way better then A-stars atleast. I own a pair of their H2O gloves and they are great! They do indeed have a weird fit, they start out extremely tight but thankfully the full leather construction started fitting a bit looser the more I wore it at the start. Size up indeed.

I've had a Bell Adventure for a few years now and I love it. Wish they would have made the visor removal just a little easier on the new ones....at least captured hardware on the top. You can buy non-MIPS examples for about $100 US. Though my regular ensemble is Scorpion Yosemite jacket and pants (hey, I'm in SoCal, we only have two seasons), for those days when it's get really chilly, I have a 10 year old Fieldsheer Aqua Tour jacket that is still in excellent shape...they make good stuff.

I definitely can’t afford such gear. Great review, kinda scary thinking my cheap (best we could afford) gear is scary crap😳 But what can ya do... right 🙂 💙🏍🦋

Like the new music

2019 Update plz

cant wait for a cruiser/cafe one

Great video man! Got some good ideas. Thoughts on a lightweight enduro jacket like the Leatt GPX 5.5 in 2019?

Yet again, awesome video! As the Wife and I plan to move up to Maine, I have to start looking into ADV bikes for my commutes. This is a great place to start, as always. But, where's the Cafe gear!?!? I'm not a cafe racer, but I do enjoy the style and the bikes. i currently ride a Triumph Street Twin which is about as "cafe" as I will go. Thanks for another great video, looking forward to the next one!

Another excellent video. I have the Bell helmet. Have you ever looked at the Rocky Mtn ARC Battleborn stuff? I think it has a pretty compelling price to quality ratio. Cheers

Please upload more frequently please Ryan!

Do a sport/naked bike gear video PLS! But Love ya stuff!

As a long time AStars consumer, I have experienced much more satisfaction moving away from the lowering quality and price raising products they've been pushing as of late.

I wasn’t sure on what gear to get. But I heard Alpinestars was really good, I ordered The Missile Leather Pants and the T-Missile Drystar jacket from Alpinestars. For boots I got the Sidi Vertigo boots. For Gloves I bought the Knox Handroid gauntlets, and I got the Icon Airframe pro all for beginner gear, since I’m starting on a Yamaha R6. I wanted to be really safe.

Your detective voice, man. I'm here just for the voice lol

Awesome stuff! Now, just to find gear that isn't sold out in my size on your website!

Great video as always, would you choose the Bell MX-9 over the Arai XD-4?

Couldn't mash the thumbs up button enough times!

Ryan, I would love to see a video on adv motorcycles and techniques for short riders. I am 5'6" new to motorcycling and would love to get into adv riding but I notice pretty quick all the adv bikes typically have a very high seat height.

Solid list of budget friendly items. Those Shot X11 Boots look very similar to the O'Neill Element and ARC Corona boots... I wonder if they are private labeled by another company.

I just purchased my first bike (KLR 650) this week and I have been watching a lot of the F9 videos for the past while. I liked the look of this jacket but just two months after this video was posted the F9 site now says the jacket is discontinued. I would love to hear your runner-up jacket choice now with this one out of the picture. Cheers! PS fellow British Columbian! I noticed a BC plate in a few clips :P

You should do this video yearly.

Those Rev'it gloves have been my favorite pair of gloves so far, its like they were made with my hand as a mold. I'm actually on my second pair due to an accident. The only thing I don't like about them is the strap, its just a hair too short and pops out of the eye when they are being put on and its nearly impossible to thread back on unless you take the glove off.

that fieldsheer adventure tour jacket is sold out everywhere

Huge fan! Video request... dual sport/adv gear desert focused! I live in Las Vegas, Nevada and we get over 300 days of pure sun! I am interested in getting a dual sport and gear... I understand you are in Canada but if you could make a video like such it would rock! Thanks

Budget MX gear!!

Love the Bell mx-9 adv mips. It gets people in a safe helmet inexpensively. Btw I collect rev-it cards... I'll trade you two blue for an orange :)

good luck getting a jacket, wish Ryan had checked stock availability as this jacket is actually a discontinued product, silver colour scheme is sold out most sizes, same with black, and the hi-vis is quickly vanishing.

Good luck getting one of these jackets. As a result of this review they are all sold out. Everywhere!

Fox comp 5 off roads are decent boots. They actually have a lugged sole.

Have you done a review on either best "Bike" mounted dashcams and or best USB ports to add to your bike? If not would love to see these options.

Tank U!

G'day, great videos and pity you don't post to Australia. Seems that the "Fieldsheer Adventure Tour Jacket" is sold out everywhere, you must have done a good job. Is the new one as good value?

you sir, need your own mythbusters type show

Hi, I love your videos and they're extremely easy to watch, keep it up, I have two requests however. 1: I could you review the new Honda 500X please? I'm itching to get one and they made them a little better off road (still primarily an on-road bike however) 2: I hardly ever see any reviews for women's kit..... any chance of getting a co host?

First! Come back to mtl so we can go ride the Scotch together again!

Nice socks. ^^

Now to the next step... do your "test" with belt sanders and such again and hammers to show how you personally test the gear? +FortNine

Why has the Fieldsheer Adventure Tour jacket been discontinued?

Enjoying your content reviews, Any chance you could do a Kawasaki Vulcan 650 s review ?

Mr. Ryan . Have you done any reviews on gear for extreme weather like we have in Oklahoma, where it can be so hot and humid at the same time that you could literally pass out from heat exposure in traffic ?

You guys really need to plug the website more in these videos.

Hey, what’s the bike hanging on the wall? Looks sweet 👌🏼

Ryan! Love your videos! Quick question. Fieldsheer jacket is from 2014 and mostly discontinued. What's up with that? If it was such a good jacket why isn't RevZilla (your US partner) still selling it?
