"So the shell's job is the same as a youth pastor's - prevent penetration."
Immediate thumbs up. Just outstanding.
I had to replay that to make sure I heard it right
I cracked at "you only have seen the half of it". Where does this guy get the texts?
Came here to say this exact thing. Instant pause and comment.
"immediate thumbs up" is what got the pastor into trouble in the 1st place
Almost shot water out of my nose on that one! LOL!!
I don't even own motorcycle. I simply watch your videos because I am just baffled by your video quality. The editing, the script, the jokes. I feel like like I am watching some high budget program.
hope you will keep making the best content.
Best regard
-your fan
yea , i hope he gets into some car content
Same here man
It's crazy that you love his content and don't even ride. Props :)
NO U
@@enlightenedidiot9552 it's the most high quality motorcycle content on CZcams, i also don't ride, i just love these videos
I absolutely love he doesn’t just say “this is the best helmet buy this one here’s my code”
But actually explains WHAT makes it a great helmet then let’s you deduct which one you want. Bravo my guy
It's the best part of the video, I don't live in Canada or have a bike/the money to buy eeal bike stuff so there's literally no way for them to make money on me but Ive learned a ton of transferable knowledge and had fun doing ut
Cause he for the store that sells all of these, so no matter what you buy, he wins. Therefore selling you a better helmet is actually better for business. Dead customers tend to be poor long term customers.
@@MaxwellAerialPhotography
Not to mention, happy customers tend to be repeat customers.
I got hit at almost 60mph and I walked away scratched but fine. The SHOEI helmet left my head and face unscathed after several rolls and bounces. It's a bit more expensive but SHOEI has my vote of confidence!
Same. but I've crashed and hit my head more times in an Arai. For me, Arai #1, Shoei#2. The other brands makes sense, but why not stay with that's been proven from personal experience?
I simply have a shoei head .. i put on a shoei and it fits like a glove ..
"...Because a benevolent physicist always leaves the finicky work for engineers." - Too true. Damned physicists.
@@Kevin-vh9dl and Howard rolling his eyes at him.
As a physicist i always say calculations are for engineers, im happy when i arrive at the formula.
It doesn't stop there tho. Engineers then pass it down to technicians.
@@rrm80916 then on to the maintainers
@@JLV711 Then I enjoy it!
Product damaged in shipping 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Revzilla will warranty that 💯
Wassup ib!!!
🤣🤣🤣
Ha! Try returning that to Brian Van!
I hope they do a review of damaged helmets by carrier!
So funny LoL
When he started to tape it up I was hoping he would put a "DOT Approved" sticker on it.
oddly enough the hjc he said he would choose is only DOT approved no other ratings
Ryan ... love those "motorcycle oriented" physics "chalk talks" ...
it's great understanding the theory behind how (and why) our bikes react and respond the way they do under specific circumstances
Helmet manufacturers: *hide how many EPS layers their helmet got*
Ryan: *cut the sh*t open for his viewers to see*
they dont hide them
Why you think they hide it????
Everyone knows its eps with an oudside fancy layer...
Its just a helmet
Conclusion: don't crash on a running angle grinder
Exactly, but into a large woodchipper is A-OK!
The ending 👌🏻🤣
Goddamnit, you drew that helmet profile perfectly on one try. I can't do that.
Years of practice. ~RF9
You act like you can reshoot videos lmao
Yeah, that was very impressive
holy shat what a weird crossover.
@@FortNine dude. Just discovered you. I literally love your content. I have a 2018 vstrom 1000. Any vid to front and rear shock absorber settings? Thank you 🙏🏻
That Revzilla Banter. Ryan, you’re a blessing for Motorcycling on CZcams 😂
rev zilla is great
@@steve00alt70 I'm sure it was meant as a playful jab lol
Holy shit that ending! 😂😂😂
Hey Ryan, I thoroughly enjoyed hearing you on Lowside/Highside. A F9 podcast would be a blessing from the motorcycle gods
By far the most informative and life changing helmet vid I’ve seen. Thanks for breaking it down for us Laymen…
I would still arque the safest helmet is to not buy a Yamaha R1 as your first bike
Thanks for the smile
Pfft. Everyone knows a stretched out turbo Busa is the best beginner bike.
Heey! My first bike is a R1 I'm gonna go cry now :(
In most European countries beginners are limited to either cc or power for two years. In the UK it is 34hp and in Germany it 27hp.
A number of manufacturers sell bikes in two versions: Unrestricted for experienced riders and throttled back with a removable kit for beginners.
@@gustavmeyrink_2.0 Here in Quebec we have three classes of motorcycle license. Under 125cc, under 400cc and unrestricted. It's not based on age, but on what motorcycle you use for your practical exam. You can practice on a full-size motorcycle on a learner's permit but not at night.
Mandatory disclaimer: people should check the details of the ECE rating they see on helmets. 22/05 and 22/06 are quite different and not many helmets are up to the 22/06 standard just yet!
Very valid point! ~RF9
The Arai Quantic, which was not "designed" to pass 22.06, is the only helmet as of yet to pass this new standard.
@@scottenlow5249 and the new Shoei
@@rideoutlondon do you know which shoei specifically?
@@222wheelsdown NXR2
Riding with a Shoei RF-SR helmet I bought a couple years ago. It is the best helmet I've owned. Very quiet and comfortable.
Man, this is so nice to see. I remember finding this channel with the Honda rebel review and being dumbfounded it only had 30k subs. So happy to see them now at 1 million.
Did I need to know what's in a helmet at this point in my life? No.
Did I watch and like?
Yes. Anything from you is a light house of luminosity in this age of cluttered white-noise.
Every time a new Fortnine video comes out it's like a little Christmas
Right as I drop the coin on the rf1400 my world gets flipped upside down. lol
Cant argue with that
Like Christmas without having to go to church
I feel the same xD
@@danmanthe9335 This is the Bike Church for all of us dedicated. You will have a great 2021 Christmas too.
This is a most excellent video. I like how you cut it apart, explain each layer and rating standard. I have ridden 45 years, always buy top of the line helmets offering the best protection. I crashed in 1983 with a Bell Star helmet which save my life no doubt, crash once and you are a believer. After my crash I took a motorcycle safety course and learned how to ride, went on to become a motorcycle safety instructor for 15 years and now just enjoy my wind therapy.
I watched this channel for a year before buying my first bike. Thank you for all of the information, and making sure I knew how to protect myself
Being a youth pastor myself, that intro joke was HILARIOUS 😂😂😂
Amen! Gotta keep the salt salty :) ~RF9
👁👁
👄
Im a car guy, no interest in bikes whatsoever... but this guys content is so good i cant help but watch
Bikes are fun mate 🇺🇲❤️💯
Thanks mate, because learning about the behavior and limits of motorcycle riders, makes you a better driver.
Well, you haven't ridden a bike. Yet.
Hell, I used to fly ultralight aircraft, and I’ve been self-grounded since 2003, and I’m 71 years old. Got my last ride on a 305 Scrambler in 1971. I’ll watch this guy all day till I die! N.E.OH Bob
I was a big car guy till the costs of feeding my passion gave me a wake-up call. Bikes are MUCH cheaper and way more fun IMO.
You always put in so much efforts into your contents, and I love how entertaining and informative your vids are. Thx for great contents!
You just keep on impressing! I remember watching my first fortnine video and I knew I would keep coming back. You never disappoint
Scorpion should trademark that line “Frugal Bastards” - and have that line be built to FIM standards
I would buy a helmet named "The Frugal Bastard." ~RF9
"product damages by shipping carrier"... god dam priceless finish to a phenom vid....
shipping the helmet back to revzilla at the end was a stroke of genius.
I legitimately feel safer and more confident going into my first bike with this dudes videos... Along with DanDan
Thank you dude.
So how's it been?
@@luisc7896 he ded.
I did my msf course in Arizona, with the same school he used to teach at... Lets just say the lady who ran the course, did not like his teaching style because he leaves out a lot of details you need. H didn't teach there long
I'm alive dudes 😂
@@sparkplug4178 He is obviously very intelligent and I trust him.
I don't even own a motorcycle and I watched the whole thing.
Ryan, your helmet advertisement kept interupting the commercials I was watching.
Exactly !LOL
Is this some sort of peasant problem I'm too adblock to understand?
@@aero-space541 I always turn off adblock on F9's videos, they're just too good I feel bad not supporting them, plus I want more
Simply brilliant; keep these videos coming! Thank you!
Ow! This must have been an expensive ep to make! Great work, as always, you are certainly the standard to aim at on CZcams if not even what passes for broadcast in the world.
The ending is HILARIOUS
I've never seen a better helmet review! Well done! Really enjoyed the editing, information , and humor 😀
I just ordered the Z1R Range MIPS Helmet from FortNine. Thanks for this great video. Very helpful.
Love your reviews and honesty and comedy and the fact that you're willing to destroy new stuff for true analysis
“Darling of the frugal bastards”, damn, I was laughing so hard my wife was looking at me weird, on top of the angle grinder laugh at the beginning and the penetration joke, you made me spit my coffee. Keep up the awesome work, you’re not only one of the most educational series I watch, but one of the funniest too.
Glad you're back man, I've missed these reviews. never stop doing your other stuff though its so much fun to see what's next!
Brilliant, as usual. I enjoyed every second and now know 170% more about helmets than I knew 10min ago
You explain everything so perfectly I can’t wait to learn to ride, i am binge watching everything preparing, studying and learning
This is the best motorcycle content i know, witty, well informed and passionate. Keep it up!
Nothing like a cup of coffee and discovering a new F9 video on the weekend nice job Ryan !
Awesome video all around!
Awaiting the video of 2022 :D
I’m literally addicted to your videos. Keep up the good work. Would love to see videos every week tho 😅
As a Belgian, I see Eddy Wally saying "wauw" and I like; simple
As a motorcyclist, I see a Fortnine video of superb quality; as always ;)
Same! :D
@@Meloen5 yay im not alone! :D
Agreed! 😀
Nog meer belgen ! :D
Preach Eddy, preach! ^^
just started my A1 and i dont think i would have started without your inspiration, wish me luck people!
getting back into riding and these videos are so welcomed
This channel is what you get when you combine the best parts of the TV shows Mr. Wizrard, How it works, Mythbusters, and Old Top gear and throwing it all in a blender. Informative, captivating, and Very funny.
I bought the EXO-R1 about a month ago and I'm glad to see it here. The fit is incredible and everything about it feels premium.
Glad you're enjoying it! I've been loving mine as well. ~RF9
Does it have room for communication devices?
@@Delalcon Yes it does!
@@HydefHyde Cool! Thank you
Would you take it over the shoei? I've been looking at the scorpion because it's technically fim homologated. But I like that the shoei has mips. Someone help
I've been binge watching every video in this channel for the last few days. Very good content!
Man, as an engineer I can't stop laughing at the hidden gems in this text... Great job F9!
Great review as always mate!
Not even a minute into the video and I’m laughing my ass off at the Penetration joke 😂😂
Wait for the man with 2 one
@@AndreDiasRJ and Rusian bride!
I knew I could find someone who has already saved me from typing.
......and then I just had to reply
😶
That Revzilla bit is amazing.
Thank you. I needed that laugh.
When I saw the page come out of the printer I just busted out laughing. Good stuff.
Absolutely hilarious. He commented on someone with a similar comment and said “the return was denied, going to keep bugging until they get a hold of anthony” lmfao.
Gold
Awesome video guys! Keep up the good work. Educational and entertaining all in one 😀
The ending cracked me up! Ryan, you make the best educational videos ever.
This channel is just straight up amazing! I'm crying xD
Thank you for making my day better
Hey, Ryan. I am a dog owner and motorcycle rider, and sometimes those are hard to mix. I see you have many videos on many subjects, but not one about pets on motorcycles. I would love to see you test out some carriers and giving advice on this.
All the best now, you are great.
Thanks for guiding me toward the better protection.
I really really like the Icon Airflite Peacekeeper , but if the Scorpion is the better brain pan,
well its worth looking into.
Whats inside our helmets? Shhhh you dont need to know this....
Ryan: grinder go brrr hehe
You always manage to put a smile on my face...
This time using the "Voice of Europe" gimmick ... our friend Eddy Wally
Thanks from a Belgian viewer ;-)
that ending had me rolling. once again, superb content!
started riding with your videos, stopped riding with your videos, and still watching your videos! such a great content guys. GJ!
I wish all helmets had pump up pads. I'm always right between two sizes of ever helmet I try.
100% Agreement
I'd imagine it could be used to disperse more impact force also; from its springiness and by shunting it around.
Ditto for me. I’m at 56 mm barely. The pump Scorpion is new to me. I’ll have to look at it. BTW, I’m very impressed with your wit and conclusions!
Check out the Bell Race star. I love mine so many great features, expensive but worth every penny.
"if all the other lids would just pump, pump, pump,... to save my gourdificrashed"...sorry,..wrong song...my bad.lol
Youth pastor joke killed it, and we're only 30 seconds into the video. Phenomenal.
Your content is by the the best out my guy!!! Love it
I do not even a motorcycle but your cinematography is the best I’ve seen on CZcams. Keep up the good work
I use HJC's and i've gone through 2 of them due to wrecking myself in late 2019. And I managed to buy another just like it due to how well my first one faired and how well it protected my head from a side impact and I hit the ground bloody hard. Well worth the £300 or so for it and a pretty good upgrade from my Scorpion Exo Combat which only came with 2 types of tinted visors and not even a clear one for night time use or the snow flurry that I braved like an idiot. I still have that one and i'm going to keep it as a momento and it looks really good.
The ending is beautiful
Subscribed just for this video!! So informative and hilarious 😂
What a riot and extremely educational at the same time. Well done 👏
You guys are friggin brilliant! Reminds me of my favourite physics teacher, you were so entertained by the presentation you didn’t even realize that you were learning!
A rarity indeed
Now THIS is a teardown
Stellar video as only Ryan F9 can do. Thanks again for the smiles! (...gear comparison: any chance you have thought about dyneema vs kevlar clothing??)
Sweet been waiting on this video👌🏾
Was waiting....
Disappointing video 😑
Bro just imagine what he'll say to ISI.
@@kam6 why?
Me 2.. And for me at least, always great in the way he brings it.. It's been thought of...
Omg yes😂 finally
AND THAT'S how you make a good gear review!
I love you and the work & passion you share w us 🥺✨✨✨ I looooove who you are
This is an awesome helmet breakdown. Thank you.
Making an in & out in Montréal, obligatory stop at Five Guys, watching Ryan. Perfect Saturday.
The ending was "La cerise sur le sundae". Totally hilarious! I was hoping for a more detailed review, but apparently this is a report on today’s technology. That said, you did a great and entertaining job, well done guys!
I don't know if it's only in Oz but 4 ads during a 10 minutes clip is outrageous. I love your channel, always the best on CZcams. Thanks
Amazing video as always 👌
Another fantastic review, FortNine. Thanks.
Btw, I had to look up online today, and it looks like the battle among different types of air filters (paper vs. foam vs. K&N) is still raging. And I thought who but FortNine could settle that debate once and for all (perhaps for three different types of bikes - one being the ADV, of course). When should we expect it?
If you go by the engineers Honda just tells you to run them there some compress air every once in a a while and throw it back in. If it’s good enough for Honda good enough for me
Half the time I cannot fathom Ryan's mathamatical terminology, but I continue to watch every video. Why? He's just bloody brilliant at presenting this stuff in a way that keeps me interested and laughing. Keep it going guys, outstanding!!
Just went out and got myself a Scorpion Exo-R1 Evo Air and so far it is a fantastic helmet! Great recommendation, F9! Thanks :)
another brilliant production
Another great video never a let down also this is very informative
In case you were curious, your pre-edited comment was in fact, first (beat second place by 1 second).
You should have sent the box directly to Spurg and somehow arrange to have a camera record his reaction when he opens the box.
The video was excellent, but the ending was the cherry on top. Perfect 👌
Great reviews presented with very helpful quality and excellent humour 👌 😀
I have the Shoei RF-1400 because of this video and it is everything Ryan said. It is incredibly comfortable (once on) and very quiet but it destroys your ears taking it on and off. The trick is to tuck your ears in to the helmet before you pull it down over them. This reduces the discomfort by 50% but it still smarts a little. Other than that...darn near perfect helmet.
Great vid! I love that a company is bringing FIM safety standards to more affordable prices
but then dont forget that a FIM helmet might safe you at a 200 km/h crash, but there is no
part in the regulation that would help you in you normal 50 - 100 km/h crash
if you design a helmet to jsut work at high speeds you get one that sucks at low speeds while
the contrary isnt as true
@@lexel90 They aren't just designed for high speeds tho? They are basically more stringent than both SNELL and ECE in both criteria for crash resistance, at all speeds.
@@lexel90 FIM is actually the most rounded standard, speed wise. If you plan on hitting the wall at 200km/h, Snell is by far the best bet. ~RF9
@@FortNine awww hoping id see my bell race star on here, almost got the shoei over my bell
@@FortNine so fim for the street, Snell for the track?
10 extra pts for using one of the most dangerous tools in the box to cut into something made specifically to keep you safe. May not have been intentional but it made me smile. Top quality production. Keep em comin'.
I had to stop riding due to Spondylosis, but I will keep on watching your videos as long as possible. Good work guys, keep it up.
