+1 baby wipes. It's what I use to clean the bug guts off my leathers lol. Works great and doesn't hurt the leather.
Put a padlock on the chain if you have a chain for theft prevention. I'm sure a u lock through a wheel would work for those without a chain.
0:14…..how is no one talking about his balls hahaha
The newspaper one is hobo af but it sure works, haha.
The last one was golden tho. Seems like common sense but never really thought about it.
Very VERY well made. With regular posts you'll be at 100k subscribers in no time. 加油！
Dude what jacket is that
if someone really wants your bike they'll chuck it in the box of a truck.
Awesome tip on using other outdoor riding equipment instead of expensive 'motorcycle' gear. I also wanted to share a tip with everyone. Chances are people already use this but I'm betting not everyone does. I live in Phoenix AZ. This summer was one of the hottest in a while. Average summer temps in July were like 113. To combat this I used to wear gel evaporative gear, like a vest and scarf. But these made me feel humid and were only good to about 97 degrees after which they were less and less effective. Still, I wanted to stay somewhat cool and protected. Riding in heavy city traffice without an armored jacket or gloves and boots was a no no for me. My solution? One day I was shopping for 'cold packs' for our cooler. I noticed the cold packs, the ones that look like little ice cubes wrapped in foil, were just the right size to fit into my jacket's inside mesh pouches. I thought why not try it out? I did, and now use them anytime it gets above 95 degrees. My jacket has pouches on either side of my chest, just over my ribs/lungs. Frozen, they easily last more than an hour, or longer if it's not extremely hot. Not touching my skin directly means no uncomfortable freezer burns but still close enough and buried inside my zipped up jacket to create a barrier of cool inside that has really really helped me stay cool and avoid heat stroke. I literally do not need to use the gel gear now till it's a bit cooler. I arrive at work or shopping or whatever cool enough that I have barely broken a sweat, even in 115 degrees. Next summer I'm going to try putting one in my back armor pouch for added cooling. Best life/motorcycle hack for the heat, try it please.
I always remove the gear lever from my KTM and set it to neutral. I bet thieves are more busy for getting the bike started than look for missing gear lever.
Title should be ''Top 5 ghetto motorcycle life hacks'' lol
Hi, thanks for the good idea "baby wipes". It works very good !
yeah right.
Id love to see moto camping videos on your feed.
How old is he?
dude, are you from quebec? im just outside montreal!
A clever thief has a van and enough mates to lift the bike into it regardless of immobilized wheels
Do you want to take your cat on the ride?
Bungee net!
You're channel is great. I just subbed. I hope I get to ride through Canada one day it looks amazing. I'm from Louisiana but now I live in Bangkok where it's stupid hot or stupid rainy all year. Riding here is an adventure and allows for some great weekend trips into the mountains up north or the beaches down south.
I like your tip about baby wipes. They're essential here but I also carry baby powder. They have some here with menthol. It's like a shower in your pocket. It keeps my man parts dry and comfy too. keep up the great work. I'm really enjoying these types of videos.
Just discovered your channel and i really really dig it. Thanks man
I think you missed the point of deterring theives, most will bring a van or a truck and not rely on actually starting the bike.
ok, i think the newspaper insulation is a bit of a stretch. Why would you not just layer the fuck up? you could put on enough layers to sweat in a blizzard if you want
round like that football
Hunt hand , foot , and body warmer packs also work pretty good. You can get them pretty cheap in bulk packs as well
can bicycle gear be used on motorcycles?
I am addicted to this channel. I don't even have a motorcycle yet but the production quality is so fantastic!
Shit If i need to wash my helmet, I'm throwing that shit in the dishwasher. Cleans inside and out real quick
Want to catch the thief that just stole your motor cycle?
Bungee net!
Need to emphasise something? Finger guns! Demonstrating something? Finger guns! Celebrating a success? Finger guns!
Can confirm the only purpose the Montreal Metro has, is to keep street people and motorcyclists warm in the winter.
thank you ms. frizzle lol!thank you for the tips though, I love the channel
Great advise for saving money on gear….
Ah the old magic school bus newspaper trick. Good tip if you get caught in colder than expected weather
awesome hacks!!
Pretty good!
when do we see part 4? I love these hacks!
one trick I came up with, put your hoodie on backwards to keep your neck and chin warm. works best with full face helmet
That dick on 00:19
Ahhhh, the ol newspaper around the chest trick! Cyclist tip for descending in the cool and cold weather
but if you get the clutch lever down, the thief still can steal it, he starts it, and run a bit and put it in first gear.
Some great ideas and some not so much. But hes easy to listen to and is using his head. Cheers mate
I want my 5 minutes back.
Also riders, chose a cargo net with plastic hooks. The net he showed has steel hooks covered in a thin rubber. The rubber will peel off quickly and the steel hooks will scratch the paint on your rear seat handles. Another tip, I wouldn't recommend cleaning anything for vision with a paper towel as it will scratch.
hello can you please explain how do i install the cargo net on the back seat of a bike. FYI- i have a honda hornet 160R its an indian bike.
Newspaper for warming? Guy i have a Cordura-Jacket with thermoinlet and i sweat like hell. When i pull out the inlet i sweat. When i drive with hoodie, i sweat.
And if you think Newspapers are a solution for winter, it isn't.
2:22 – yep, you can!

2:30 am i the only one that has seen the day after tomorrow?
Is the newspaper CE level 2? Or just level 1?
When exactly did "tips" turn into "hacks"?
The bungie net was one of my first motorcycle accessory purchases and it has been INVALUABLE! Best bang for the buck accessory yet!
Are you the Canadian version of MKBHD?
