FIM: Anything good for consumers, which corporations / manufacturers hate, makes me happy.

[@mr7wi]

came here to say this - leaving satisfied.

[@elik1804]

I actually don’t agree that stronger regulations benefit the consumers long term! Less regulations, would make it easier for companies to innovate in isolated areas making their own helmets better than the rest in an area they believe customers value most! Those advances will than trickle to the rest of the industry who are focused in other areas, yet will import the best features all round. Forcing all the companies to focus on safety means research money is being greatly wasted by the companies as they are all researching the same things! This equals all the other features to take a back seat! Why are Bluetooth sets so expensive and honestly, feel like they don’t belong in 2020’s? Leave people alone! people with their own money will spend their money where it greatly benefits them. This is how the markets are shaped! Where people are spending money, companies want in on the action!

[@kylejscheffler]

@@elik1804 so, which helmet manufacturer do you work for?

[@ridesmort]

Its hard to argue against wanting more safety and higher standards in a helmet though when previous standards were subpar (DOT)

[@Vessekx]

Eli Kruger, do you know what *less regulations” actually makes it easier for manufacturers to do? Cut corners. That’s it. Regulations are writ in the blood of the people harmed (or even killed) because manufacturers cut corners. There’s nothing about the existence of. DOT or ECE regulations which prevented helmet companies from experimenting with different materials, construction methods or features. The regulations simply put into place some minimum standards before the manufacture can put the results of their experiments up for sale. That’s why *you* aren’t the one being the lab rat for those experiments.

I really welcome the FIM homologation helmets. All my life having raced motocross, helmet choices came down to "material, weight, looks, brand reputation". Hopefully they introduce it in offroad soon, although non-mandatory at first. They will be expensive and on the motocross track you can go through a lot of lids in a short period of time.

[@hvymtal8566]

Hopefully that FIM sticker will also get track owners to lighten up about helmets that don't say Snell M2015 on them. If it's good enough for the EWC, SBK, and MotoGP, it's more than enough for a trackday or club race

[@Samh-z5b]

@@khakimzhanmiras Helmets are not injury protectors, they are death protectors.

[@SurmaSampo]

@@khakimzhanmiras There are only 2 ways a helmet can reduce concussion. 1. Increase the inertia of the head by increasing the mass to where it reduces the relative force of the motion of the head. This is really hard though due to the relative mass of the planet you smash your head against so it only serves to move the force to the fragile upper spine. 2. Use of progressive crumple zones to slow down the deceleration trauma that causes your brain to stretch and tear inside your skull. The easiest ways of doing this results in larger helmets so more space is created for progressive deceleration. Imagine a helmet that turns riders into bobble heads. Helmets can not save your from concussions and concussion damage is for life. Only not smashing your head into stuff or visa versa will do that.

Now that I know about FIM my SNELL helmet suddenly seems inadequate.

[@s70driver2005]

Just because a new safety standard comes out doesn't automatically make a old not keep you safe. Snell is still a good standard. FIM is just better. Also take into consideration the manufacturer and how they achieved the FIM standard. Barely passing a test doesn't matter if the helmet falls apart on its own.

[@Devilcry91]

@@s70driver2005 "the barely passing" part can be applicated the Snell and other standards too tho, who can say those who passed Snell or other standards did it "barely" or at "full marks". Still there's no point using old standard when a new and safer is "released". Like cars for example: abs, traction control, emergency stop are all standards that every car has nowadays, it's only normal to opt for a safer option and I hope all will adopt the new FIM standard. Obv, if I have a old and functional helment I won't change it for no reason only because the new standard is out.

[@craigoldsen1667]

Because of your critique of the Bell Broozer helmet, which topped the research sources that I was able to find online and the video from Spurge at Revzilla, I ordered one and just got it yesterday afternoon. I found the sizing chart to be right on track with my 23” head fitting perfectly in the 'large' size, intermediate shell size. I also consulted with Rachel, a 'Gear Geek' at Revzilla, who was very helpful in reassuring me that the size chart ran true to my head measurement. I rode in a 25 mph, quartering Nebraska headwind yesterday to see how noisy it would be and was pleased to find that the volume of noise was actually much less than what I had expected. The visor is easy to operate, even with a gloved hand. The vents however, are quite 'positive' and require stopping to use both hands to open or close them....not a problem for me.

I also looked at the sharp results and especially when looking for a budget helmet for my girlfriend. Amazing how good some of those scores are in the budget realm as well. In the store over here the ones with good scores had the sharp score on the sticker that is on the visor. Only downside with sharp is the limited array of helmets they have tested. Not even all popular shoei, arai or Schubert lids are tested. Sharp also immediately makes apparent why arai refuses drop down sun visors or flip ups. The hits in those areas are clearly worse.

“Ground breaking helmets” don’t want to need to be separated from the floor with an espatula matey Great video as always

[@Jaded.]

Always love to see an f9 video in my inbox

[@Hoffer09man]

@FortNine would love a guide on the different categories of MC helmets, the pros and cons of street vs adv vs modular and so on

[@Snakebloke]

I don't own a bike, would like to, but never been super bothered about it. Until now. This is one of the best channels I've seen online. Massively impressed.

"Through crosshairs like an American" - love this channel

The price difference between the k6 and pista is to convince the Italians that work is not an 8 hour espresso break

[@tomyoung3087]

Great videos as always, and your humour is getting better every year

[@earlshiller43]

Unquestionably the best reviews (of any product) on KZbin!

First time watching his videos. I'm having a good laugh. Quality video.

FACE~TO~FACE with JESUS... As I go into prayer and seek my King -Jesus, the fellowship is so awesome and intense, that when I come out of it, I’ve realized it’s been at least 10 hours, sometimes more, of Him pouring His love over me and then me pouring my Love on Him... So intense is it, that it knocks me out to sleep after a whole day’s prayer of INTIMACY... I have to get a good days rest just to wake up and Love Him again... For I love Him “with all my STRENGTH” and every bit of it is used just to wake up again to Love Him... I arise morning by morning to start this process all over again just to Love Him and spend time with Him all day... THIS IS LIFE TO ME...!!! And it is the secret behind this great ministry given to me.. IT’S THE FELLOWSHIP!” ~David E. Taylor~

[@ihorstojko7284]

Hi! Your crash tests are very helpful! It would be interesting to see Smk Eldorado helmet in your crash test, and especially if in comparison with Scorpion helmets like Exo 410, Exo-490 or Exo-750.

[@garktnieus]

My god, that subway joke was savage!!😂😂😂

[@DARIVSARCHITECTVS]

Hey F9, YOUR reviews TELL US what we need to hear, light-years ahead of the advertising videos RevZilla uses. Keep up the good work!

[@Hotrob_J]

I'm a big fan of the K6's "secret" colorway (the white and black Dazzle Camouflage). Ended up buying a scorpion exo st1400 in the Antrim, because I wanted a drop-down sunvisor

[@exystantyt]

I just got a new helmet about a month ago. I tried on the new HJC F70 helmet and I LOVED IT! It was so comfortable, sleek looking, and loved the colors. I bought an HJC CL-17 two years ago when I got my first motorcycle. I got that helmet after watching your videos about helmet ratings, like SNELL rating. So I got it because it had a SNELL rating. I ordered it on Amazon and when I got it, it was a little big, but, usable. So after 2 years and riding more on the highway daily, I needed a smaller one because the speed on the highway would turn my helmet some because it didn’t fit correctly. I didn’t have $300 for a new helmet, for the HJC F70, so I got an LS2. I really love my cheaper LS2 (paid $150), but, would definitely get an HJC F70 possibly one day when I can spend $300+ on a helmet. Thanks for your review. Love you bro ❤️

[@UnShEeP924]

Loved how you explained each helmet Ryan (i.e lemonade stand and my fav kiss my ba**s). We need more like you but since you're doing such an amazing job at this we're grateful. Keep it up brother. Love from 🇮🇳❤️❤️❤️

[@moee1337]

I dont know why, but im watching this like the 3rd or 4th time. And the Crosshair joke at 2:35 gets me every single time. xD

[@TheTech9]

My wife won't let my get a bike. I've never owned anything over 50cc and there doesn't appear to be hope of me ever riding again yet here I sit watching several of your videos in a a row... A testament to just how appetizingly well made they are

[@ammo2960]

Bro I can watch an hour long video about anything at all if YOU make it....you have an amazing ability I commend you on your skills. I already own 3 helmets and sold my bike last September, still watched this entire video while getting breakfast ready for my son.

[@romiarkan450]

HJC F70 is literally a Godsend. Good ventilation, bluetooth ready, sun visor gives enough room for people wearing prescription glasses, at a slanted price. It just sums up the brand so well.

[@nickcardone7119]

OK ,He got me at "The great Gazoo ...I know hes not that old,..lol

[@Rick_Sanchez_C137_]

Nick Cardone It played in syndication in the states for decades, lots of other countries keep playing certain American shows for decades longer and in better spots than they play in the USA.... I would watch Three Stooges in the morning in Afghanistan in 2010...

I have the HJC F70 and I love how much I can see and I'm perfectly happy.

[@williamcovey9703]

Production values are superb. The host is opinionated, informative and entertaining. What's not to like!? FortNine, you make me want to get off my old ass and buy a motorcycle! THANK YOU!

I am philosophically proud as a Korean that Korean company has showed up in the F9 video.

[@hawsantiago3697]

You had my like at the "most us won't have the..." remark. 😁

[@nailmcnugget9284]

Bought the F70 and I have to say I feel so safe in it and is super comfy once broken in a bit

[@jakepeters7596]

2:37 as an American, can confirm.

[@anthonyparkhurst9218]

"... like an American" -- best line ever!

[@jamesbradley5908]

I may have watched this video 12 -15 times. I apprciate this channel so much

[@nickgee7291]

Love the one liners! So many tasteful fun jokes! And I love the Canadian references! This channel is not just informative but also entertaining! It's like the donut of motorcycles! It's fortnine! So much better than other motorcycle channels that sound like sales reps! This is a cool channel! It's really the only channel for motorcycles ! It's in own class!
