2:34 I have actually ridden to church wearing a 2 piece leather race suit, gauntlets, race boots etc. Might as well go straight for ride afterwards instead of going home to change first. The Lord does not judge, although Susan from the parish council sure did.

These vides are so good, I could literally watch him talk about a loaf of bread and still watch lol

I wear an evs compression shirt in the Texas heat. The hard armor isn’t “made for abrasion resistance” but... it works. I put a shirt over it so I don’t look full insane. End up kinda looking like a hockey player. But it keeps me from having a heat stroke. Also the back protector holds a drinking pack!

This guy makes laugh and learn at the same time. That's a gift.

The worst part about a new F9 video is knowing you now have to wait for another one

"Squids are people, too." Fun things to say to non-moto people.

Ryan I have an idea for a new video series: A series where you test an old-school motorcycle vs its modern counterpart. Examples could be: Old dual sport vs new dual sport (like the old DRZ and KLR 650 vs the most trending modern bikes in those categories). It could also be old Supersports vs new ones, or old Naked bikes vs new etc. I am personally very reserved when it comes to buying new bikes, since purchase is sky high like an expensive night out, and then depreciation hits you like a bad hangover. Furthermore, I often find myself struggling with finding the increasing appeal of many modern bikes, relative to what they offer over older generations in regards to pure bike-for-money factor. I'd never get a new 600 over a bike from 2-3 generations ago. Prices are ever increasing, but is technology and development following suit? I'd love to see your take on this topic! Greetings from Europe, loving all your work :)

Ryan I so appreciate your style of humor and creating videos. I never miss one. They make me laugh out loud, and of course are very informative. Thanks for who you are and keep up the good work!

“Im not in the ATGATTKGB” 😂

*Was watching an old fortnine video* “oh, a new fortnine video!”

I've been doing research and watching motorcycle videos for the past couple of years, I intend on taking an MSF course this year at 46. This was the most informative video I've seen yet on gear. Thank-you!

“Add more layers than Paula Deen’s Mac and cheese” 😂🤣😂

Does anybody think that having light summer gear in black color is weird and non-practical???

That trigger finger tho! Safety is mentioned in the title. One could say I'm... :D

I don‘t know if I already said this to you: But your clips are real pearls of YT. I follow plenty of bike channels, but your clips, your way to present your different themes, with your ironic humor is outstanding. Thanks for your work. And, please don‘t stop! I am always hooked in your channel when I have enough of all the other clips about bikes on YT. Like wellness ;)

I cannot believe fortnine just reference The Room 6:14 MADE MY WEEK!!!

Ahh, came back from a good ride and lo and behold, new FortNine video pops up! This is the life right here!

The calamari racing team appreciates your tribute

Thanks for making soo many amazing videos, you inspired me to get my first bike the other day and I can safely say, your knowledge you share with us helped me heaps!

Great job Ryan it’s amazing how far riding gear has come and no doubt this presentation was only the tip of the iceberg.

Would love to see your take on affordable airbag vests. Here at my driving school in Germany they have them and require us to wear them. The co2 cartridge is replaceable so unless the airbag is damaged, it can be used over and over again. Triggered by a tug line. Or even a full out comparison video with the myth busters like tests. Hope you all had a great Canada day! I sure continued celebrating though in Germany.

Has Ryan finally been hitting gym lately ? Or his bike is giving him a hard time 😁

No one is even coming close to your level of content man. Keep it up. Love your videos

Yeah. Going to need something like this. I was in a minor motorcycle wreck yesterday, and my currently-bandaged elbows and knees would be thanking me today had I had some on.

It’s been so recent since the last F9 video, is this Christmas in July?

As someone who has recently picked up riding off road i want to say thank you ryan. Also love from Australia

For me, the best riding pants for hot days is the Trilobite Dual, at least when I'm going somewhere on the bike and not just riding for fun. It let's you unzip the bottom half of the leg, so when you arrive, you're basically just wearing normal cargo shorts. It's comfy on the bike too, and it has Kevlar on knees and bottom, as well as armor pockets, which I filled with Seesmart.

Decently protective top and bottom with good ventilation for a combined $500 is legitimately brilliant! Amazing work from Icon and Scorpion there.

I don't get how all of his 250+ videos are all really high quality, super informative, and have their own spin/theme on them. This man is a genius Edit: It was pointed out to me that the editing and ideas crew probably has a part to do in the high quality of these videos too, should out all involved in making them.

scrotum panicking: melting? 150? me: whelp, Kevlar it is! I got you, little buddy

Watching your videos for awhile now..... informative, and hysterical all at the same time, keep them coming

I don't even ride a bike but love this guys cool relaxed delivery so much I'm addicted...

Love your vids. always very informative, always very entertaining, and you never sound like a boring fool just reading what they were told to on a spread sheet. On top of this you always research and test the qualities of something rather than just reading them out. Thank you for uploading these amazing videos.

How many comments about trigger-control can we get? Also, Dude has been working out. Great vid.

Great tips! I have been riding with a motocross mesh armor “jacket” jacket for years. You can find them for under $100 if you look in the right places and even though the hard plastic armor isn’t flexible, it works excellent in a crash and then you get to look like mad max

I love that every video I watch the top comment are about how great these videos are written/produced/high quality. Great work, keep it up!

2:53 *FortNine team brainstorming for a new video*

I just love the way you explain and perform brilliant videos... On all biking issues... 👍

Your content is really really good! Thank you so much for producing it!

We have a lot of riders at church myself included. I wear my lower rated stuff (riding shoes, riding jeans and light jacket) so I'm more comfortable when I get there. But others just wear their full kit and seem happy sitting around in that. To each their own.

Once again, you manage to make me laugh while you educate me🤣

Love my Knox urbane pro “shirt” abrasion resistance where it counts, stitched in elbow and shoulder pads, and back protection included. Prices vary, so shop around, being in the us it’s roughly 245-299usd. I think I got mine over seas shipped for 149€ which would equate to 132 usd. With shipping it was still under 200 buckaroos.

Been wearing the field armor 👕 since I seen your video and my mesh was too hot in Texas Summer, prob about a month now. It is game changing and amazing. I can't say 1 negative thing about it, highly recommend! It's like wearing nothing at all, but I feel so much more protected than just my spine guard. Just a heads up: I'm 5'10" 165lbs, average build. I ordered a medium and like how it fits.

Don’t get me wrong, there are a lot of stuff that’s covered by these videos I care about, but I watch the ones about products and motorcycles I don’t give a shit about because they’re all super entertaining. By far best motorcycle content. Way better than revzilla.

Commenting for algorithms 💪💪

Super relevant content

Very timely video, especially in this current heat wave in Southern Ontario! As always, well done.

Fun and entertaining, with the educational expertise you can only get at FortNine. Love it, still watching from Queensland, Australia.

Hey hey! great and informative video as always Ryan. Will check those Scorpion jeans, they look awesome and you convinced me with the kevlar point. That said I would add something to your open helmet advice... if anyone wants to ride an open helmet with no visor, chances are that you can collect bees and hornets in your rides...and from my own experiences, it makes the ride quite interesting in the wrong way :P I have suffered this issue (and the collateral stings) 3 times (2 in Spain, 1 in Australia). One of them inside my jacket when the bee got in through the space between my neck and the jacket all the way to my clavicle, the other two inside my helmet which, in both cases, the bee managed to crawl all the way to my ear using my sunnies. I love to ride with the visor up but...even with glasses, take into account that it brings some risks. Ride safe!

Sweet, let me go pick one of those ICON compressions shirts up, since we are having a hot summer for the first time in 10+ years. OUT OF STOCK...

The Icon AF you dropped at the beginning is the jacket I wear daily in South Florida. It works. I will look into armored shirts.

Ryan you are the man!!! Hands down the best biker videos with the coolest delivery. Keep them coming. Cheers

Next video: Ryan just reads an owner's manual. I'm still watching and upvoting.

How the hell this channel continues producing quality, interesting material, leaving manufacturers brochures aside, with technical data that could make the world fall in boredom, without a single soul getting bored, is something beyond any imagination. Congrats Ryan F9 and Fort Nine. You guys really dig what really matters

HOT DAMN if this isn't the content I've been waiting for. I am so thoroughly entertained and informed at the same time.

Hey bro... Your comedy is excellent. Your helpful motorbike tips are priceless.

Exactly the vid I've been looking for!

Like others said, Knox Urbane Pro is CE compliant. Would love to see a comparison between these two or even a “lab” test. Don’t know why, I feel you missed a nice opportunity to feature the Urbane Pro in this video. Awesome channel, please upload more videos! I need my fix.

This is great, thank you! Awesome production, interesting style, and as always - good info.

As a Canadian this channel is slowly becoming my favourite peice of entertainment of any medium

How many times did you have to do that ATGATT KGB line Ryan?

6:13 was that a referrence to Tommy Wiseau's The Room? 🤣🤣😂😂😂😅😅

Ryan i normaly not comment in KZfaq, but you have realy put a lot of work in your Videos, they are really the best informative ones.

Another great video on safety gear what I like best about your show!

Superbly well researched, written and presented as usual. Thank you RF9!

"the EU requisite lack of imagination" I laughed so hard.

Another brilliant video, informative and creatively entertaining to watch. Thanks!

Dude, your videos are awesome, and you are super talented. Great work!

5:20 trigger finger, Ryan

That trigger discipline though.

I love your videos and I am always keen for your next one.

This guy is HI larious! These are great informative and ENTERTAINING videos.

Please, do a episode on All Year Gear for around the world travelers. I feel like, I have not other choice than buying Revit or Klim 2000$ Sets. Is there a Budget option without a big compromise?

I feel like the icon shirt would slip right off of you in a slide

Brilliant! Love these vids, such a friendly/factual way of telling you how to do it, and that ain't easy?

Another Excellent Vid and the thought of melting plastic on the sack is something nightmares are made of, Thanks for that :D

Just commenting to help out his video it's that good

6:13 "Oh hai Ryan"

My man, at the moment the only channel where every video first step is to like!

WE NEED a 2023 summer Gear update. Thanks Fortnine crew!

That Icon riding shirt is crap. It doesn’t matter if there is Kevlar in spots that matter. LOL, it’s sown to basic polyester or other crap fabric and those pads/Kevlar will rip right off exposing your skin. Wearing an outside layer is a must with that shirt and you better make sure that outside layer isn’t just a jersey

5:18 where is your trigger discipline! This triggers me you beautiful Canadian 😂

Another banger right when i needed it

Nice! The summer heat is one of the big factors that stopped me from riding on streets

Ride naked bikes not bikes naked :)

Best summer helment: Off-road helment. Change my mind

Love watching your videos

Awesome video I live in 100 percent humidity in the summer and being a squid is pretty much a “I have to” kinda thing. I’m definitely gonna check that Icon shirt

“I could be pregnant and it would fit, IF I could be pregnant”

5:20 AHHH! GET YOUR FINGER OFF THE TRIGGER! (still loved video though)

Such great video fortnine🤟

A+ Quality content. I would expect nothing else from F9

5:22 you need to work on your trigger discipline ryan

Ryan, I have two words for you: Trigger Safety. KEEP YOUR FINGER OFF THE TRIGGER UNLESS YOU'RE READY TO SHOOT! Points added for using a gun as a prop for your video adding to the cool factor. Points deducted for neglecting the #1 rule in gun safety. Otherwise a great video. Keep 'em coming.

Moose armoured mesh long sleeve shirt with a S&S full kevlar jersey overtop. Combined the two garments offer excellent protection and the breeze does get through.

always a great FortNine vid when i have to stop it several times in 7 minutes to stop laughing. Thank you Ryan F9. Pure brilliance and showcase some great gear options.

"If I could be pregnant" *Video removed due to hate speech*

I am incredibly impressed with the quality of work you put into these videos. Did you take any video editing courses or did you simply learn on the job?

Superb! Informative & Intelligently Entertaining!

I like this guy. He's great at what he does. I bet he's got good banter.
