"Chrome studded saddlebags you got from J&P Cycle" I'm fucking dying 🤣🤣🤣

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.

Hahaha! I had to lay her down, every old man’s excuse when I hear that I giggle like a girl every time. Thanks for talking for the guys that actually ride.🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽

My favorite part was about the road racing, "well you're not very fast then..." Hahaha! Love it!

For my normal riding, I actually prefer the feeling of my motorcycle boots to the tennis shoes. Definitely more support than those leather work boots.

I stopped caring what people say when I seen them fighting over toilet paper in 2020, ride your ride, wear what you want/don’t want, great channel keep it up🤙🏻

I'm a new motorcycle rider but very seasoned athlete. With my limited bike experience I can already tell that I appreciate the tactility that thinner surfaces offer on all the important control surfaces (throttle, brakes, clutch, shifter, and even seat). I can totally believe that this "lively" communication could make a huge difference in the ability to do advanced skills. I absolutely hate the feeling of being numb with no feedback. Thank you for sharing.

I wear boots and sneakers. There’s a significant difference in where my feet need to be when wearing my boots vs sneakers. 🍻 “Let those who ride decide.”

I certainly hope no new riders take your advice about riding gear. Bikes are dangerous enough without good gear. It's up to the individual to accept personal risk when doing anything. Anybody who has ever crashed on a bike will sat they were glad for every stitch of gear they had on when it went bad.

I can respect the skill stunters have, but when I'm riding hundreds of miles at 80mph, I'm going to wear 10inch Nick's boots, a riding jacket, and a full-face helmet. I can replace gear, I can't replace my body.

Different rides require different gear. All that needs to be said

Interesting discussion and perspective. I would be the last person to ever tell a stunt rider what kind of gear they should use, because for me, if I was to ever be doing a wheelie or trying to precisely manipulate controls from a standing upright position, that means something has gone horribly wrong and I would want as much armor between me and the outside world as humanely possible!

Moral of this video: " I'm a fuckin' idiot and think my magical riding skills will somehow protect me so stop telling me how obviously stupid I'm acting."

Because Boots are for "Hell Yeah" Brothers with sparkly jeans.

I ride a bagger. Been riding 51 years. I wear the gear that makes me feel feel safe. But more than that, I love the way you splayed the fuckin clothes cops and people minding other people’s business. SUBSCRIBED.

the reason why I keep my mouth shut about most shit lmao. The more I know, the less I know, and the more I understand that most people don't know shit either.

To touch on the jeans part, there are “riding jeans” made to slide even at highway speeds. I don’t wear them, but they exist 😂

I love these rants by Ryan

I hate people being Karens about gear. Wear what you want.

I just found this channel by chance, fantastic truths, straight to the point. Loved it thanks.

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.

AMEN !!! I'm tired of hearing that shit too ! If you wreck..... you're going to get fucked up . Do it your way . 🤣🤣🤣

I rode with a mate long-time ago who wore steel cap boots. little minor fuck up on his behalf turned out to be a life changing situation. The steel cap folded back and virtually chopped off all toes on his right foot from just behind the balls of his foot

Hands down the best video you’ve put out Ryan! Lol I love this shit

Great piece!!! You nailed it with the HD riders (yes, I ride a Harley) who get their "costume" on and play billy joe badass while wearing their skid lid or uber protective doo rag! People ask why I wear a full face or modular helmet. I tell them because I don't have enough sense to lose anymore and walk away.

"Put on your costume" Fuck.... absolute gold!!! Best video EVER!

After 40 years as a rider (34 of those in AZ), I ride in shorts and running shoes. Still wear a helmet and gloves when riding, though.

"chrome studded saddle bags that your bought from your J&P catalog" hahahaha holy fuck. hilarious man

most people were i come from think it's mandatory to put their weekend pirate costume on. combat boots, finger less gloves, leather vest with 100 dumb patches on it, do rag no helmet. they will tell you that's what real bikers wear. come monday they put the costume back in the closet, and you would not recognize them. what ever floats your your boat i guess.

I hear you man. It’s our choice what we wear or don’t wear.

This guy put up a damn good argument… idk how to do anything but ride, and he convinced me that he is right lol

Love this! thanks for the good laugh while I’m at work.

I wear boots 24-7, always have and always will. You guys do you and I will do me. I don't care what you wear or don't wear but don't try and put me in the basket with the "I had to lay it down, Dude." bunch and I won't put you in the "Look at those idiots." basket. 60 years ago when I started riding the Converse High Tops were all the rage.

I smoked some green before I watched this video ryan … can’t stop laughing right now Good Shit

I could not agree more, been preeching the same for years, just leave em to it now, those that preech and ramble about gear usually have little riding experience. 🖤

Thank you!!! Dickie shorts and high top all leather chucks almost year round.

"He broke every bone in his foot" Yeah, and if he was wearing sneakers, he wouldn't HAVE a foot.

This shit is gold haha. Ive never had any issues doing a wheelie in my red wings, but whatever lol

Mr. Darwin is chuckling somewhere...but hey, you do you...

I can't talk, I just got back from the shop wearing crocs and board-shorts. feels good man.

Experience is everything. Marketing and regulation has made everyone the “bike gear” police. F that protect your melon and wear what helps control your machine. Great video homie.

Man thank you for just being honest. Fawk the safety patrol boys 👍

Can’t look any better than wearing some clean white vans while riding

literally had someone come into the shop askin me why i have a full face helmet with a harley and im just there like "uhh b/c i actually ride daily and not just once a month?" only time i've had someone talk shit to me. which is a weird thing to talk shit about lol

Thanks for the lesson, I wear boots but I don’t stunt, makes lots of sense, Enjoy your channel 🇵🇷🥊🙏

Hahaha love this

I love that Ryan makes a video specifically to tell people he doesn’t give two fucks on your two cents about what you wear or your opinion on what he should… and the comment section flooded with said nonsense. The internet really is a special place for special people 🙃

I like how everyone has a coffee in their hand lmao

Never stunt rode my harley but like watching videos such as yours or Cbear. Always wondered why most guys rode with shorts and shoes and now it makes sense.

Nicely said dude 👍 I wish I could wear shorts here in England on a motorcycle but its usually fucking freezing 🥶. I had a crash and my trouser leg got ripped straight off anyway and my leg got messed up ! Keep doing g what your doing always waiting on new vids 👌

Your choice. Safety matters

Don't let the Karens get to you homie... Do ya thing boi!!!

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'.

Hahaha! I don't know who you are but I love your Attitude and how you delivered it!

I wear cowboy boots everywhere... even when I ride. Your Vans have no rattlesnake protection bro ahahaha

These foos are walking stereotypes 😂

Stunt Bunny Vans… I’d wear the shit out of those. Hope to see those on your site soon….

Your a fucken badass brother! Keep doing what your doing love the content

I fucking love you. Wish I was out there to help you build badass bikes.

I love that line if your road racing and using the rear brake you’re not fast lol sooooo true

I fuckin love this channel 😂🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

I fuckin love this channel 😂

Fuck yeah man 🤘🏾 if only people could learn to mind their business lol.

Love it! Whoop to the Dog from the Big M Town, Memphis, TN. Keep on rocking!

“Fuck your costume” lol Officially my favorite youtube guy. Fuck them keyboard warriors, Vans all day everyday 🤙

Tcx makes some solid “riding “shoes. Work to stunt in. I’ve wrecked the same way one left once right stunting and once in moto shoes once not and I didn’t break my ankle with the tcx on. The little ankle cup protection came in clutch.

Lol, have more rants. They are awesome

So I need to wear a denim jacket, football cleats, and never touch my rear breaks unless I’m stomping into a dirt track style power slide. Got it! Thank you for the after school PSA. 🤣😂🤣😂 All BS aside, good video. Too many know it alls putting around on the weekends.

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.

😂 subscribed! He’s roasting but staying classy !! 💪

Great video. Some people just need something to bitch about. If you ain’t doing it like them, you’re wrong, as they’re the experts of everything. 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.

The funniest thing is the HD riders who have to ride in Chucks or vans. That is part of their costume. It’s hilarious

I always wondered why stunters didn't wear gear, kinda figured it had something to do with comfort and flexibility so you're explanation makes sense. Im no stunter tho so Kevlar jeans and boots it is for me 🤣

Love it! I've had more people give me "advice" on how to ride and what to wear that have never rode a bike before than actual riders...🙄

Best was when my mother tried to tell me what could happen when I was standing up on my bike. Mom Ive eaten shit on my skateboard at 50 mph. Smh. 😂 cant wait for my bike to be done so I can get more rowdy like you guys!!!

Right on, I hate wearing boots for the exact reason I want to feel the brake, shifter. Hi top vans is the way to go

Dropping the knowledge! Hell yeah!

I f4cking love this vid! I use to do aggressive skating and BMX and ridding off-road so every single thing has a learning curve and as more experienced you are more risks you can take, more picky you become with the gearing as more movement freedom you wanna have.

I’ve wore boots all my life. I’m an ironworker Local 3 structural steel. I wear boots to church. I wear boots everywhere. And when I’m on my bike, I wear waterproof boots I do not stun ride. 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.

I wear boots because I live in Alaska and my feet get cold. But when it’s warm I wear 5/10s because they’re fucking awesome. Good rant 😎

an angry Ryan is a funny Ryan. awesome shit bro, keep it up 😎

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.

I remember when Indian Larry had all that safety gear on when he fell off his bike and died.....o, wait i'm thinking of someone else...

This is the first video on this channel I've seen, wear what you like mate, my old man said to me - it doesn't matter what the hell you wear, the aim is don't fall off in the first place. I wear all the gear all the time because it's freezing and raining most of the time here, plus I can't ride for shit and definately can't do wheelies lol.

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.

Man I always felt weird about being the only guy around town (in the south) not wearing a bunch of black leather on a bike and either some DCs or Etnies instead of boots. I love the looks you get when wearing a Hawaiian shirt blasting down the road on a V-twin🤣

I know shit about stunt riding. But I agree with you I ride in shorts and no boots!!! Lol

Thank you sir!

Greatest video yet!!!

“We’ll I use the rear brake when I road race. Well you’re not very fast”😂😂😂 that was my favorite part

When it’s in the 40’s……. Yup, lovin my boots and jeans😂

Love it! High top vans, thin leather gloves, and a shoei for me 🤙🏼 im just not a shorts person or id probably have those to (also 100+ here in the desert)

When I had my stunt bike , we would do a hand rear brake lever. Agree doing stunts is at a slower speed and boot wont help, but I did wear a lower riding suit. Also I did road racing with Factory Honda and rear and front brakes are a must .(trail braking) at 170 mph Stay safe and do you.

Good topic Funny shit some other KZfaqr posted a video about boots today 😂 I had to comment sayin After a 3 hour ride I never felt more uncomfortable then before wearing boots I wanted to wear my slip ons way more comfortable and like you said you feel more on the rear brake. Not that I’m wheeling but way better comfort if you ask me VANS ALL THE WAY 😂

I don't always ride around in a jock strap but when I do I drink Dos Equis!!! Keep it real my friend!! LMAO

All good points. I’m amazed at what people are riding while doing these kinds of stunts. The only issue is that there was never a mention about leathers. If made or maintained properly they prevent roadrash.

Nailed it! There will always be Karnes out there! Keep killing it!

This video going to make #motojitsu and his fans go crazy. I can't wait to share it in his comments. LoL

Glad I watched this before I commented... because I in fact do not know shit about stunt riding. Keep thrashin bro

It's ok for you it's your body. But for me, i'll still prefer to wear gears.
