Testing Amazons stupidest Motorcycle Accessories (#1 is life saving)

[@brandonkubena8188]

My only accident was a high side in 2007, my back was absolutely destroyed after hitting a road sign. Something like this could have saved me months of rehab for my back and trunk strength.

2:42 "anti-climactic" is right! We were expecting a stuntman was going to, I don't know, fly over the handlebars: 🏍️/ 🛵 or at least a bicycle 🚴 to test it landing onto loose dirt or asphalt to test it out, with a helmet on 🤖 ✌️

The vest is actually a life jacket for a boat.

[@andrewmeadows2596]

I didn't know Elephants rode motorbikes.

[@ericm.3919]

​@@brianpickering5001 no it's not

[@dahveed284]

The vest likely does NOT come with a CO2 cartridge due to shipping issues for those cartridges. I think they can only be shipped by ground. Anyplace that sells inflatable life jackets will also sell the appropriate cartridge.

[@BikesandBeards]

it was harder to find than we thought

[@dahveed284]

@@BikesandBeards most ship chandleries would stock those, but in the midwest (where I think you’re located) probably only large fishing stores would. But yes, not a common item. Smaller cartridges used in some BB or pellet guns would be easier to find, but might lack the volume to fully inflate the vest.

The vest looked like it took a bit to completely fill, but the collar seems to have instantly inflated. That's the part that's going to butt against your helmet and brace your neck.

[@rampage3337]

yeah and to be fair you are most likely gonna have something ells protecting your back and softening the landing a little. usually there's not much for chest protection so at least it would help allot against that to.

[@monmir3919]

I happen to wear the vest for over a year now in Mexico city, it is also water repellent overall is Good quality. Bad thing are the 33gs Co2 tanks which are not easy to find nor cheap.

[@oknevals]

I got Helite for $700 4 years ago. It is quite heavy but, it works as tested in real riding situation. If I didn't have $700, I would look into it.

[@thumbthumb5998]

@@oknevals I literally got the helite for 300€ and teh frequentyly go on sale here, for that price its honestly pretty sick, because you dont grow out of it.

[@enderlord5412]

Interesting, I thought you had to buy a whole new vest once it's been deployed. The fact that they used replaceable c02 cartages makes it so much more worth it

[@BikesandBeards]

and you feel more confident bc you know it works

[@macbook802]

It's false confidence. People who wear ppe drive faster than they're capable of because they feel safe. In actuality they are blocking mobility and visibility, while raising the center of gravity and adding dead mass for when they wreck. You are twice as likely to wreck while wearing a helmet but half as likely to die.

[@rickytickybobbywobbin055]

There’s different types of airbag vests, some like the one in this video, and the accelerometer kind that requires sending back to the manufacturer to refill, and as F9 said in his video, they could always say “sorry, this vest isn’t safe to reset, you’ll have to buy a new one”

[@RideWithRen]

I have a HitAir vest and they recommend replacing the vest after six deployments regardless of outer appearance and condition.

[@lemongrabracing71]

alpinestars race vest has a 2 deployment limit before both co2 cartridges need to be serviced and replaced. So if you bought a cheaper version I honestly would toss it because I wouldn't know if the bladder of the vest can actually hold multiple deployments. I had the first Helite airbag vest when u first started riding and it was great. but I would spent $500-700 to have the A-Stars vest.

[@THECelrenel]

The projectors underneath are a really good idea for safety and style. Imagine using them as blinkers too.

[@BikesandBeards]

Yeah I agree it would be very useful

[@chspyderr]

More, please! This series is really good, I think I speak for a lot of watchers that would like more accessories tested.

[@stresslee]

The airbag vests are legit. I just took my motorcycle safety course and our instructor was talking about how it literally saved his life going at highway speeds and being thrown off his bike that was totaled. He had minor injuries and was able to go home the same day, the doctors were shocked and had no idea what the vest was until he showed them. Unsure what type of velvets he used though, I don’t think it was the one with the cable like this one, but maybe it was idk The point is that they’re legit.

[@Shonicheck]

There are electronic ones(aka you don't have to be tethered to the bike, but you have to charge your "air-jacket", so yeah...), but the problem with them is the fact that a lot of those on the market are crappy(they usually have a small inflate volume and don't inflate enough to block your helmet to prevent the neck injuries) also some have "subscriptions"(aka you have to pay a monthly fee for it to function) imagine how cool it would be to die because your subscription period expired or it just thought it expired! That's the cyberpunk we deserve

[@kevv-j7v]

@@ShonicheckBesides that the prices mannn. I'm 20 going to school & work part time, I gotta really really put my head down for a few months and disregard living conditions to be able to afford. Which I guess is worth it considering I'd prefer to be alive to complain about living conditions in the first place. For now I will be rocking the cord the system 😂

[@jakob9913]

I also ride with an airbag vest, but I use the alpine stars model, however this one for the price looks very good.

[@ebikeengineer]

Great episode! That vest looks perfect for my needs. I was looking at some others and they were running about a grand. So $200 + $25 cartridges seems downright reasonable.

[@uglypinkeraser]

I love that you bought the inflatable vest. I've got a HitAir brand airbag vest, it used to be the cheapest one on the market and it was like $500! According the HitAir, the neck collar is the most significant protection these things offer and the neck collar on the amazon vest inflated really fast! I think its worth it based on your quick demo.

[@tristenpicard4946]

I also have a hot air that I use when I’m racing at the track and I’ve never had an issue with it popping when I get off the bike I think that this bag popped a little too easy

[@sopermanobsessed]

I have a Hit Air too! Sometimes simple is just better (there are issues with the electronic airbag vests sometimes). The only time I've accidentally deployed it is when I dropped my bike at like 2mph and tried to walk away lol

[@JohnnieV]

Is the hit air worth the 500? Provide good protection? I already broke 2 vertebrae in my back skydiving. & my tailbone.

[@uglypinkeraser]

@@JohnnieV It depends. I find that I don't wear mine very often and in my case it probably wasn't worth it. I think the company only having a few products, just motorcycle and horse riding airbag systems, is reassuring. All of their r&d goes into these airbag systems, not just motorcycle gear in general.

[@uglypinkeraser]

@@JohnnieV The hit-air vest does inflate and unfold around the neck and down the back, a flap at the bottom folds out during inflation covering the tailbone. Personally I'm not convinced it will inflate fast enough to provide protection from the first strike against a car or the ground but better safe than sorry.

[@timmccreery6597]

That vest- if you flew off your bike on a bridge into a river and went unconscious it would keep you head up until you were rescued! yeah!!

[@Jimmy_Boy_Kalahati]

lever locks are useless against a wrench on the banjo. A rotor lock would be more effective. The mask is pretty cool. Wing lights are silly. Paint booth is pretty nifty.

[@yurgon]

yeah rotor lock is very effective and also has an alarm function... I stopped using mine though because it would randomly go off from the wind ... in my trailer LOL ... I'm sure better brands are well better

Been loving this series. Have actually purchased a couple of the items from previous videos, and they've been working great. (bluetooth helmet mic/headset dealy & the alarm + fob combo) I'd probably split it and do legit 'stupid' accessories, and another video for potentially 'useful' accessories,... maybe scope out further than Amazon and really go hard in to the Wish and AliExpress stuff, but that's just me.

[@ConnieRyder]

I’ve ridden with this Amazon vest for a year now and I really like it. Was worried a bit about it blocking air flow on a June trip through Mojave Desert, but it flows plenty. At first I also worried about setting it off accidentally, but the cord starts stretching a bit if you forget and it reminds you. Plus, I’m usually giving the bike a quick scan before I walk away, making sure I didn’t leave keys in the ignition, tucking away gloves and stuff, and you pretty quickly see the cable. Have compared side by side with much more expensive model and they look and feel similar in quality. Have NOT used it in a crash. Nice review btw.

The second time the back part of the airbag seemed to fill faster, so maybe if you get one of these you should do a test on it to loosen up all the bags and stuff and make sure it actually works at the same time.

I wear the Helite Airbag vest. I was convinced of how useful it would be when I was in my MSF and one of the instructors had one he deployed. It felt like you could take a sledgehammer to it and not cause any damage.

[@joemann7971]

Fortnine has his friend hit him with a golf club. The back is very well protected but the biggest protection is actually on your neck. If your neck snaps, you're dead. Combined with a full face, the airbag can protect your neck. This cheap-o airbag still seems to provide neck protection, even if back protection is subpar compared to the helite. That being said, I also the helite turtle and what convinced me was fortnine. Glad your MSF instructor demonstrated. He must be passionate to save lives. Helite should send him free refills to deploy since $20 each time he deploys it isn't cheap if you combine it by the number of classes they do per year.

[@cprn.]

Go to any metal worker shop and ask them to replace the 4.5mm cutting knife with a 5.9mm one (shouldn't take more than 5 minutes, I usually pay €5-10), also make sure you're using 45g CO2 cartridges, not the 35g ones. It'll fill up in about 0.1 second (which is what big US brands promise currently) instead of the 0.2-0.3 it takes stock. It's a trick known for over 10 years (airbag vests are used for various sports since the 90s and athletes modified them in many ways).

[@mrorange3046]

Appreciate the review on the vest. I actually bought that exactt product a few months ago. Haven't had an accidental inflation. Just looks like a traffic cone..... lol oh well..... I ride home at 4 am, so it makes me feel better to be visible and sorta protected. Very cool to see that it really works.... no I didn't waste 30 bucks on a cartridge to find out.

A use a Helite Vest for all my rides. It needs only one CO2 cartridge. Vest cost 550€ inkluding 1 cartridge. If you need a new one, it's round about 15 €. And if I try to stand up from the bike, without disconnected from the trigger, it needs such a force, that you know for sure, that you are still connected, without activating the Vest! And if you do it daily, it's a regular movement and you never forget to connect or disconnect it.
