    One I would like to add: a 1L bottle of gasoline
    I say this one because you will at some point underestimate the distance to the next gasstation
    Having this little 1L bottle with you can get you 40-ish kilometres further and even if you never need it you might someday see a lone biker pushing his bike at the side of the road and you will be there like a true saint and offer to help, he will turn out to be the son of a multi-billionaire who would love you to come work at his company in the board of directors, basically doing nothing. It is on one of your many paid vacations every year you meet the most beautiful girl or guy ever, who also loves to ride bikes and will instantly fall in love with you.
    And all that because you once had a bottle of gasoline with you.

      I actually had this moment, i just bought a 1 gal jerry can yesterday for tour today & on my ride i found a guy that had run out ot fuel pushing a HD Superglide towards the gas station. He had another mile till the station so i gave him the gas.

    @julia.kowalsky Před 6 lety +5

    Earplugs! Totally I agree! I remember my first ride as a backpack (passenger) after 400km when I returned home and sat down to chill, I had so many sounds in my Head, even I had the phantom feeling of my body going to take a turn left or right. So bad.
    Also I remember when I tried my first highest speed (245km/h). No matter how good helmet you will have, the power of the wind while riding such a high speeds - It is loud. If that's your first time on the motorcycle remember to hold your driver strongly with legs and hold your head as much as you can. For me I wasn't use to the position and the weight of the helmet. But the comfortableness comes with the time.

    "essential beginner accessories" starts rambling on about track gear and dedicated $150 motorcycle backpacks xD
    What about something like a cargo net or straps to secure cargo on the back of your bike, in case you ever have to carry something that wont fit in a backpack? (done this myself many times). It's cheap and easy to use.
    Or maybe adjustable leavers? I don't have problem with my factory leavers, but I hear from many people that having some that can be adjusted to your liking makes it much easier and more comfortable riding (which would be great if you are new).
    You could even go as far to say "new ecu mapping" just to optimize fuel delivery and eliminate any possible fueling issues that your engine might have from stock ecu map. Not really an accessory, but a mod none the less that can really optimize your bike.

  • @t7emonic792
    @t7emonic792 Před 5 lety +1

    They sell a pair of earplugs at Walmart for about $15 that fits pretty well and only filters out harmful noise I use it while shooting and you can still hear everything around you clearly it only blocks loud noises

  • @ianloughney9570

    #6 DUCT TAPE Same idea as zip ties, but better in some cases. I was riding from Pittsburgh to DC once, and my license plate bracket broke off on the highway in the middle of nowhere in Maryland. Duct taped the plate to my fender. Inelegant for sure, but sure as hell saved me an annoying time trying to figure out a fix.

    On board air compressor has to be The Cyclepump from Best Rest Products. Made in America so a little on the expensive side (bout $150 for pump- lifetime warranty, and their gauge combo) but guaranteed and probably the last one you'll ever buy.

    The custom earplugs are worth it if you're going to be sticking plugs in frequently. Firstly, they are more effective than regular foam plugs (unless you take a couple minutes to put those in correctly), and they are much quicker. Very convenient.

    • @jbrock8596

      If it takes you more than 20 seconds to correctly put in two ear plugs, you are doing it wrong. Save your custom ear plug money.

  • @Chancho_Villa
    @Chancho_Villa Před 6 lety +6

    Are tank bags no longer a thing anymore?
    I would add a visor cloth and cleaner (tiny bottle) good for sun/prescription glasses too. I think I've used that more than anything else out in the wasteland. A small roll of toilet paper can come in handy, there are specially made ones that are compact and sealed. Small can of chain lube, maybe some mini jumper cables too. All this varies if you are doing a day or multi-day trip.
    I second the electrical tape for the visor, especially if you are like me and left your new pair of shades somewhere on PCH three days into a trip...

      I use a 12 liter Cortech Super 2.0 tank bag. Decent sized tailbag/small backpack. Anything that I need to bring that won't fit/if it's going to rain, I have a Sedici Veneto (25l expandable to 40 for the main compartment) for anything else. Big enough to fit clothes and shoes for a week on top of everything else I normally bring. Personally I hate using backpacks while riding

    Some more specific advice : Get the silicone earplugs, dont even bother with the foam ones. the sena SMH5 can be picked up for less than $100 and will what most people need.
    12v inflators are super cheap, just need some battery connector/adaptor. If you have a battery tender, they make an sae to 12v adaptor

    I'd add a roll of electrical tape. It's compact, sometimes works better than zip ties (sometimes not). And I've also used it to make a strip across the top of my visor to block the sun as it is setting, then just remove when no longer needed.

  • @spencer6719
    @spencer6719 Před 6 lety

    Yammie Noob Hey yamster! Just wanted to add a quick note on the zip ties. Years of experience working on cars trucks and bikes has taught me that HIGH QUALITY zip ties will save you a lot of headache! Cheap ones will often break around mildly sharp corners and cannot be cranked down very tight. Nothing worse than getting a zip tie fastened into a very tricky spot and having it break as soon as you tighten it down. It's really the difference between 5 and 10 bucks!

  • @BlueLead4793

    Remember tire pressure is important. My dad used to ride and would constantly see many people with low tire pressure or really high tire pressure.
    Depending on how big the tire is a good range is 30 to 40 psi.

    Or you can buy any bag that has a decent chest strap and you can also buy non disposable ear plugs off the shelf.

Why not just get a cheap wintersports (ski or snowboard) backpack, these always have one or two straps for chest and stomach strapping, and will work as well as any dedicated motorcycle backpack (and often have more room or usability without looking too "rider" ish if you also wanna use it daily when you are not riding).

    IMO, a basic bicycle pump is much easier than an air compressor for setting air pressure.

    I’m looking for a dedicated bag as a college student I have books and my laptop. What’s a good bag that’s big enough for my stuff but not so big I look like I’m going camping for 10 years. Thanks love the channel bout to start riding an r6 as a commuter to school and work.

    An addition I like: satnav.
    I often drive to new places and, those places being in Europe, the roads can quickly become a maze. Or, if I have to go through Belgium, just want the shortest route. No, I'm not German. Belgium roads just suck.

    'ESSENTIAL'?
    (Tyre pressure gauge aside)
    I do not think it means what you think it means.

      Space Jockey I'd consider frame sliders essential.

    • @matthewhooper2803
      @matthewhooper2803 Před 6 lety +2

      Considering I effectively only ride my bike, I would consider a lot of these to be essential. The Sena and frame sliders I would not consider to be essential but ear plugs, storage (personally I hate backpacks but I do use a tail bag and tank bag, would also use saddlebags if I could find one with a mounting solution I like), tire pressure gauge/air compressor, tool kit, and zip ties I would say are essential.
      If you only occasionally ride (less than ~28 days per month) or just stick to weekends/racing, I could see some of these not being applicable

    I meant to say buy a bicycle pump, It's so darn frustrating when you can't edit after you enter your comment, or maybe you can and I just don't know the procedure While I'm here again, let me add something, all you chicks and guys out there, be sure to wear gear always, seriously, it really makes a difference Wear protection even when riding a bicycle or when you go skate boarding It's up to you guys, well life calls me, I gotta go Have a good one
