Revitalizing My Leather Bike Jacket

With an abundance of free time, my leather motorcycle jacket got a much-needed cleaning spree inside and out with Motul Perfect Leather and the usual elbow grease and the results were brilliant.

What bike-related activities are you guys up to during these strange times?

[@Ghost-le6hf]

Sitting on my Bike and cleaning it every day fore no reason

[@ridentandemprojectrideandd2078]

applying what i learn from you

[@matthewjansen5118]

My bike's battery is disconnected and the bike is under its cover waiting for the 17th April to go riding.

[@themotoguy2762]

so i'm gonna start the day by cleaning my riding jacket tomorrow 😁. Had run out of ideas, but not now after watching your upload.

[@genesisridesmoto644]

Stripped my bike cleaning everything then putting her back together

[@callumdean]

"best lockdown ride I've had all week" 😂😂😂😂

[@genesisridesmoto644]

Great idea dude. Jackets rarely get a good clean. Stay safe. This lockdown sucks

[@HrdStL11]

In my opinion, this jacket should be 1 or 2 sizes smaller to fit you properly. The cleaning results are good. My jacket is very similar to yours, but instead of black and white its black and blue. Its with blue, because my first R6 was blue, but now i got the RJ15 and its Red and i didnt want to buy a new jacket just to match, so i took a black permanent marker(like the ones for the white boards) and painted all the blue pieces with it. The result seems good enough, but will see how it will hold up in the future, so far seems ok.

[@Daniel-vu4qu]

You know you're a good content creator, when you can make an interesting video about cleaning a jacket

[@berci04]

Brilliant well edited video. I can see the passion and love towards your bike stuff in your every video! 😄

[@mnnic4292]

Got the best waxed bike in the region! That is what I am doing during lockdown. Cheers!

[@DanteYewToob]

I've been mapping and riding every backstreet, cool road and empty lot I can find on google maps. I'm far away from people and I LOVE it! In fact I'm on a break now having water and a snack before I head back out! I found a cool half built suburb with freshly paved roads, and it's a closed system with a barrier out front. Then front has a wall, so I can turn in and no one can see or hear me from the road while I ride and develop my own little time track for my 125 urban babymoto! I found a really nice road that runs along a beach to a private aquatic life study place, so no one goes there and it's a few miles long. Perfect for cruiser riding. I also found a really cool industrial complex where I've been racing my 50cc scooter. Google maps has been a godsend! I heartily recommend people try it out! Just scroll around your area, look for interesting roads or places to go and just try all of the back streets and little shortcuts you can safely manage! You'll find some really cool stuff eventually. I promise!

[@Viper918]

Wow, that really gave new life to your jacket, seems like it delivered as advertised, it was very satisfying to watch for some reason, cool stuff CC

[@DanteYewToob]

A really simple treatment for leather is beeswax and mineral oil. I make leather holsters and it works great. Just microwave it gently and add oil a few times until you get a consistency you like. I recommend a thicker paste that you need to buff into the leather. There are better options but not many easier or more convenient. Grab a cheap beeswax candle or some raw beeswax off Amazon, and grab some mineral oil from a pharmacy or grocery. In a pinch you can even use olive oil or something, but it could get rancid eventually. The mineral oil blend will keep forever pretty much. Just wipe your gear with a baby wipe, rub a bit of the paste into the spot you just cleaned, and buff it. Done. Easy. Hope this helps.

"Best lockdown ride I've had all week!" Best way to ride today!!!!

[@tommah78]

Thanks for the video. I used the Motul on my black and white alpine stars jacket. It came out really good. I had also left it for nearly 7 years!

[@alsanova]

I am not surprised that you prioritised cleaning your bike over your jacket! 😀👍

[@matthewjansen5118]

Great video!!!, to bad I don't have a leather jacket to clean yet :)

[@isaiahjohnson9905]

It's never too late bro :)

[@Ghost-le6hf]

Again a very helpful and amazing Video!

[@rekgrupp2390]

I would like to recommend Bile soap. Its excellent for this type of restoration. 60% less than the motul bottle and does an amazing job cleaning your leather + hard parts. Dont forget to grease that leather afterwards.

[@cedricksamaniego9146]

Fuck, you're definitely right🖒 about greasing it down after.. Thanks for looking out💕

[@calvinteh3297]

What grease would you recommend?

[@rekgrupp2390]

@@calvinteh3297 Ordinary leather oil/grease. Smear it on with a microfiber cloth. Let the leather hang for an hour or as i like to, let it hang over night and then wipe the remains of with a clean microfiber cloth. Feels like new after :)

[@Gollammeister]

Horse hair application brush Leather saddle soap to clean the leather A lint free or micro fibro cloth Leave 24 hrs to dry fully Then apply a thin layer of leather conditioner cream There go job done

[@motorpontus2097]

Great video and editing as usual. I live in Sweden so we can still ride as usual here. However, please do something about that creaking closet door 😁

[@cdon2day]

I rode yesterday on Vancouver and Gabriola Islands in BC, Canada, and there were a few other motorcycles on the road too. More cars than I expected. Stopped at a friend's house to show him my new bike and he was paranoid, while I was wearing my helmet and said we were too close - 4 to 5 ft apart- and that people can get this disease just walking down the street. (Maybe a crowded city street. Nanaimo is hardly a cosmopolitan bustling city.) If so then I guess he is having his dogs pee and poop in his house because if a person can get it just walking outside then his dogs can get it on their hair and then deposit it all over the inside of his house. It is nice to ride just to get away from the insanity. I will only lick the asphalt if I crash.

[@jonasrueda4195]

Great video. Thanks for making this video.

[@lowestjoe7643]

This Channel is really something. keep the good work!

[@Santipeeee]

I love your r1 bro 🤩🤩

[@ruipais8573]

First time I watched I video of yours After 50 seconds I subscribed The content clearly has quality, good editing and filming and top of all for me, the scrip you created and narrated is very very clear, subtle and very fun! Well done Wish you a lot of success

[@blackbarry]

Satisfying is inappropriate to describe it...I love this video. The ride home was epic. I'm in Nigeria, also on lockdown so I've also been cleaning my gear as well as riding just as u did...lol. Good job man. Stay safe

[@lucimoto2922]

Great video The jacket is to big for you i think.

[@bulldogwoof6954]

I'm gonna clean my now. Thanks for the motivation.

[@joshuabarrath7222]

Yo bro i just wanna say keep up the top content i just wish you can post more often ride safe and God bless all the way from Port Elizabeth.

[@corneliocapronidelatesta5094]

Your editing skills man ! love it

[@DJDLS]

yes. it was satisfying for me. i hit the like button. thank you. but i am still not that bored to clean my leather jacket right now. i will have to find that motul leather cleaner first. in the meantime, my jacket is still hanging off of my chair. i am considering using my helmet cleaner foam to clean the interior now, as it went thru two succeeding dry-cleaning steps, that old smell is still present. thanks for the idea :) cheers mate!

[@ChocolatePie-by1ot]

1:21 😂 a long journey home I see

[@guywithahelmet9597]

This was so satisfying to watch haha

[@rookie8278]

Sir u r a AWS KZbinr , love the way u edit , love from India

[@adamelhassan8818]

Amazing video!! but please make a video about restoring the whites of a textile jacket

[@hanoyaschi2240]

Keep doing videos,your editing skills and filming are amazing to watch💯

[@Casteleiro12]

I gotta get one of those

[@ParadiseBiker]

Chaos.. How is it that you ride all year round in a leather jacket in South Africa? I'm in Jamaica and riding 1 day in leather is extremely hard

[@swapnilkaushik2565]

Your Video motivated me to clean my jacket

[@stefangiurgila7807]

That jacket looks a bit big on you

[@510Jester]

Your coat rack is bad ass.

[@omegabiker]

1:30 might do this on April 1st lol

[@LoganKohn]

So well done, I want to support you. Subbed!

[@cedricksamaniego9146]

Hahaha😅😥 My neighborhood so quiet but not missing the wannabes racers that flies down my block across the street from an elementary school setting off some car alarms🔊. Wondering if that is involved with the car break-ins in my area? Back to the product comment! Good product review, I wish I could test it out right now but funds are tight and lots of late bills that needs to be paid first. Worries come before any types of pleasure, YES this video gets a pleasure thought🖒to be considered💕

[@jt1738x]

Bruv this the first video I seen you with hair. Respect ✊

[@joyontwowheels8692]

I love your videos. Keep on the good work!

[@memaskatsikadopoulos4380]

Bad choice but a friend of mine suggested seal fat.they sell it here in Greece and it makes my leather jacket like new.

[@pandaSL]

Really miss your video I am from sri lanka And i am waiting for your video all the time. Love your editing All the best Stay safe

[@MrSilverSyndrome]

Hahahahaa nice one about that ride to home bud 😂

[@MZain1]

Damn. What a great Lockdown ride broo😂

[@stoneykeviin4185]

I would suggest you to go to a Tailor with that jacket , it will fit ( and look) better than ever

[@Zi9makin9]

Again, freggen amazing video. The editing, the shots, the music, everything is so gawd dang high quality! I would HIGHLY suggest getting a jacket that fits better though! Protective gear that doesnt fit, isnt going to protect you :/

[@insideridin1376]

Wow that ride in the beginning of the video was long omg😂😂😂😂😂

[@cornish_boy6235]

I just did this with all of my gortex gear. Had a nikwax wash and re-coat. I’ve got the motul helmet kit which is good but the nozzle broke on one of the bottles after a couple of uses which is annoying.

[@jessboytaylor103]

Just ordered some lol

[@Johnny_Thumper]

That motul stuff doesn’t have any added fragrances or perfumes??? It’s so difficult finding non scented stuff.

[@ItIsMyRide]

Isn't your jacket a little bit to big in terms of keeping protector on their place? I heard that when fitting leather jackets and pants the rule of thumb is "your pillion should not be able to pinch you".

[@rdjanjumawan7984]

Cleaning the OCD way 😁

[@remember3266]

When did you buy your jacket ?

[@clarkwg247]

I work for a LTL Trucking Company, I'm swamped with work. What do ya charge?

[@kommandant.357]

I don't want you to have so few subscribers!

[@gilinsomnia4988]

hei man, in the elbow area, isn't the jacket too big and loose?

[@Braselton21]

PLEASE Do Either a proper 10min+ Motovlog or Bike Review at-least once a Month 😀(post lockdown) *Your video quality is just way to good just be used for videos like these* There's pretty much nobody in SA putting out quality vlogs or bike reviews in SA. You could be like the southern hemisphere chaseontwowheels...more like ChasedOnTwoWheels Here😅

[@Pflanzenturio]

My bike-related activities this week: I got the bike I ordered 6 months ago ... and can't really ride it :(

[@limitless1692]

LIKE Hmm... Extra virgin olive oil and Mineral turppentine you say... Hmm I have an idea..

[@Gixxer983]

That jacket is was too big for you bro. A jacket is suppose to be a tight fit. For safety and aero. A tight jacket will hold its protectors in place when you crash, not just rotate around your arms.

[@FlamingoGarage]

How about you send me some products?😂🔥

[@tuantanah2349]

Have u try one size smaller?

[@chrisrobinson3710]

Hope you took out your back, elbow and shoulder protectors before shouting and letting dry that Muc off??

[@dbdan61]

This video was thereputic to watch. Another good video Chaos. But seriously man, get a jacket that fits next time, that thing is huge on you. 👍

[@riverarhiogill325]

Second

[@jackjayaraman]

First

[@13thNemesis]

Your leather jacket is too big for you! It will not supply ample protection on the impact zones.. Please get the right size! (I am a Dainese Store Manager, so yoou could say I know what I'm talking about :D ) You probably fit into a long sized jacket 48-50. Please get proper guidance.. Your leather jacket has to be as tight as possible, since it will stretch out with use and become molded to your body.

[@ChaosCauses]

Lol so I've been told. Do you take trade ins? Jackets are pricey!

[@cedricksamaniego9146]

Dainese isn't one of the common affordable brands in the market but it fits my body type spot on 95% of the time🖒 I do consider this brand to others but I suggest that you come in first to try them on before purchasing. I wish I could ride with other brands but my body type isn't as common as I'd like

[@saltzisch3182]

your jacket is lose try sizing down

[@moto_marcel]

Isnt that jacket way too big for you?

[@ChaosCauses]

Lol that seems to be the consensus but you wear what you have 🤷‍♂️

[@moto_marcel]

@@ChaosCauses hahaha yeah okay, love the video btw!

[@slavkid4309]

The Jacket is too big for you

[@lewdexter6286]

Sweet vid, but the fit of your jacket sucks and I'd hate to see the impact of the fitment issues if you ever crash

[@SAITAMA_ORGINAL]

the jacket not matching you but your very beautiful

[@LordPenny95]

Don’t gunna lie looks like your jacket is too big
