I've been getting more and more into YouTube so I decided to make a blog about motorcycle gear. I'm still relatively new, and this was my first attempt at editing, but I think it gets the point across in a humorous way.
A funny side note, when I filmed the part where I tripped in my jeans I had no idea the jeans would rip THAT much! I have been known to ride in jeans sometimes if I don't plan on going faster than 35mph, but after that little experiment I definitely won't be doing that anymore! Man, I'm glad I had a kneepad under or else my knee would have been cut bad.

That was a severely
That was a severely entertaining video. I really liked the magically appearing gear, though it would have been cooler if you did it with the pants too :). Awesome ending with the chicas also. Good job twin! Make more!

Hey Kickprivate,
I'm riding a 2001 kawasaki ZX6R, it's my 4th motorcycle http://www.bestbeginnermotorcycles.com/best-beginner-motorcycle-who-am-i
(in that article I only talk about 3 motorcycles, but I actually owned a 1984 kawasaki ninja GPZ900 for a while. I bought it when it wasn't running and fixed it up and sold it for about 400 more than I bought it for!).
Haha, I know this place needs forums bad and I have been working on them for a while. Unfortunately I still have a day job so I don't get to work on this site as much as I want to. My goal is to get forums up by the end of september, and if you want to be a moderator I would really like that since you seem to have some forum experience.

Cheesy and informative all
Cheesy and informative all at the same time! You convinced me to get some real riding pants, instead of just my jeans. After I watched your vid, then next time I went out in just jeans I felt naked.
Me too!
Hehe, it not only convinced you, but it convinced me! I have been known to ride in jeans if I only plan on going less than 35mph, but after shooting this video I definitely won't be doing that anymore! I actually wasn't planning on swearing in this vid, but I was so shocked by how much the jeans ripped I accidentally dropped the F-bomb!
Try not to wear black
When I buy gear I always try to avoid all black because it's not really visible especially at night and gets extremely hot in the sun.
Green is the new Black
I agree with you 100%, my riding mentor always kids me about how I wear all black. I'll admit that the main reason I do is because it looks pretty damn cool, even if it does get pretty hot! The second reason my jacket is black is because it was so cheap, I got it on sale for like $120 when it normally goes for $250+!!! So I guess beggars can't be choosers. I actually plan on slowly switching over to a green color scheme so it matches the bike, and it is more visible.
nice blog
i personally don't wear pants whens it hot, i do were a jacket/gloves/helmet no matter the heat, never wear boots & underwear lol j/k
