Special Tools Every Motorcyclist Should Own

[@Spike-rj6ye]

Hey Ryan I didnt know where to write this but I hope you see it. A fair few times youve plugged D3O stuff, and being a newbie I bought a spine protector last november and put it in my first jacket, didnt think much of it but it beats foam right? 4 days ago I had my first crash, 60 km/hr on a 2011 FZ6R, someone pulled out, I evaded, and had nowhere to go except into another vehicles rear. I was catapulted a few meters, I blacked out and woke up sailing through the air and landed spine and left scapula first on the ground, after that its all black until im in the ambulance. I landed directly on that D30 and all I got was a slight lung puncture, a broken rib, and a chip on my sternum. Doctors said its a miracle I bloody survived at all. I just got home today and boy it hurts to exist but I can walk, feed myself and pee. I checked out the armor and its in perfect condition with imprints of the crash. It only cost me 30 bucks and I can still walk because of it. You saved my life Ryan. Thankyou, from the bottom of my heart

[@FortNine]

Hey thanks for getting in touch! Sounds like a nasty crash and I'm relieved to read that you came out okay. The reason I push D3O so much is because it saved my own shoulder and elbow in a crash a few years ago. I feel honoured that you trusted my advice with your own back. Heal up quick, eh! ~RF9

Just a quick note: If you are going to make you own gaskets with sheet stock, get yourself an inexpensive set of hole punches as well. They will make fabricating your own gaskets much easier. Also, I bought a JIS screwdriver set a few months back, and could not believe how much better they are when working on my bikes.

[@EForchetto]

Agree. A source of JIS screwdrivers is abandoned old Japanese bike toolkits. Surprising how many are lurking in people's garages. Lots of people kept the kits when selling their bikes. An old trick to make gaskets is to place the material on the surface to be gasketed and hold firmly, possibly use one bolt hole. Then go around with a small hammer and tap around the entire shape tapping at the edges of the piece. The casting has sharp edges and "cuts" the gasket for you.

Yes, gasket sheets are a lifesaver as well as pocketsaver. As an auto mechanic, I'd use gorilla snot to glue the gasket to the removable side, then spread old style (long chain) wheel bearing grease on the other side. It allowed me to remove it safely if necessary, even 4 years down the road when a new water pump had to go on. That saved hours of scraping time. Pin wrenches? $44, not. Ebay $9.65USD with free shipping. Yes, helicoils are a lifesaving tech, too. Pickup tool? Worth its weight in platinum. I have telescoping and spring mounted, but not a formable one. Nice! T-wrench? Cool. I have a welder and many spare 1/4" extensions. Impact driver, but no JIS in my box. BUT my 1/4" hex drive Makita impactor is a wunnerful tool, too. (Care in assembly is needed, lest one becomes a helicoil addict.) Yup, I'd say it's time for an auto parts run. Danke much for the great vid, monsieur.

[@randall1959]

My grandfather was an old school "shade tree mechanic" and he kept gasket material on hand. He had his business out in the boonies and some of the vehicles he worked on were ancient so even IF a parts store had the proper gasket it was a 30 mile trip to town. Also, speaking of magnets, one of those magnetic bowls for holding bolts and small metal things is a must.

An old trick my father showed me, the cardboard from cereal boxes also works well as a gasket material. Years ago I used it on my old 1987 yamaha maxim x 750 with great success. Also, using a rubber hammer or a silicone rubber with gasket material on the part make great indentations so help with cutting out of the gasket.

[@proamt8744]

Great list! my two cents: Plus 1 for Helicoils! For shop use Speed Handle (versus T handle) also adds engagement pressure and rotational leverage to remove stuck fasteners, screw buster (fastener removal). Pickup tools are great and add mechanical fingers for the non-ferrous wandering parts. Add small flexible mirror to hunt missing parts or inspect less than visible areas. Dump screw drivers for a few (long, short, ratcheting) drivers and 1/4 3/8 drive socket adapters that use "apex" (a brand name but many impact rated variations) tips - this always keeps a perfect tip without replacing the entire tool or damaging fastener with worn tool. Plus storing a million assorted fastener tips, sockets, etc far more versatile, compact to store and affordable than separate screw, nut, etc drivers.

Bullet casings make great gasket choke cutters! Simply take the correct sized empty casing, locate it where the hole is to be drilled, then firmly hammer it, punching the material through in the process. It will leave a much cleaner hole than any other process of cutting. Quick guide: .22 caliber= just under 1/4". .38 caliber= approximately approximately 1/3". .50 caliber = 1/2".

[@Dante_S550_Turbo]

Some thingsd you should know about them. They do not torque well, meaning the higher the torque the higher chance of failure. You can't use loctite with them. Rapid temperatures cause them to become loose or fail. They either fit an aplication, but more often than not aren't the right size and if you need them to not be at the bottom of whatever you're screwing in good luck. A slightly more expensive option and also questionable as well are timesets. A timeset is basically a cylinder insert but for your bolts.

@@Dante_S550_Turbo Hmm, I've had different experiences to you. I bought a KTM engine with a stripped sump thread. Helicoiled it, with Loctite, and I've done many an oil change without issue.

[@JJ_ExMachina]

I prefer Robertson since I can utilize my impact driver while removing things without worrying about my bit snapping off (Torx) or stripping the bolt out (Philips & Allen). Sure you can break anything with too much force, however in my experience of building horse trailers and box trailers, the Robertson bit was the only one that did not fail under heavy "abuse", by impact and powered drivers.

[@giuliobuccini208]

@@JJ_ExMachina Robertson??? ....Google help me, please!

[@JJ_ExMachina]

@@giuliobuccini208 ... Peter Robertson was a Canadian inventor and tool salesman (among other things) who didn't like the slotted screw heads, since they slipped far too easy. He developed a manufacturing technique using cold forming to produce a "square" shaped screw head, that would not slip, which allowed for a strong driving force. SO essentially a Robertson bit/drive is the "proper" name for a square-socket drive... Similar to calling a Philips drive a "slotted" drive. Or a Torx drive is equal to a 6 point star drive... Most people reference the original inventor of a drive/slot style vs the description of that slot/drive. Hope this info was helpful.

You can also get solid insert sleeves for fixing messed up holes. I rebuild transmissions and of course the material is steel, so theres that, but we simply drill the hole out a little bigger, thread it clean it out, use some retaining compound, thread onto the spec bolt or screw and drive it into the hole then take the screw back out and finish the assembly. Forgot to say we also countersink the hole because the insert is lipped at the top. So that needs to sit flush. Of course this can only be done to certain parts, we are an oem licensed rebuilder so certain things can or cant be done depending on certain standards. Thanks for mentioning helicoil, i had a case come through my station the other day and one of the holes had this in it. I had never seen it before, and again we are an oem rebuilder so thats not spec and it came out, and by the way they really dont like comming out. But in went a sleeve and it was fixed right up. As it happens i have a steel and aluminum personal project that i just had welded as a temp fix and if that fails before i can replace the part i will be using helicoil if i can find it.

[@eddiehawkins7049]

Still got my JIS driver which was given to me in 1978 when I started working on Canon photocopiers. The fit between the screw heads and drivers is absolutely fantastic.

It's pronounced "heal a coil" a reference to the helix shape. And HeliCoil is a Stanley-Emhart brand name. The real term is helical insert. (Source: buy, inspect, and sell them).

That magnet on a length of wire is the best tool in the arsenal. Practically every bolt I handle wants to leap for freedom before attaching itself to the nut

[@scottygdaman]

Was that the rare aluminum magnet?

[@motoryzen]

No such thing. Can't stick a magnet to aluminum.

[@scottygdaman]

@@motoryzen lol .

[@motoryzen]

@@scottygdaman put a magnet against pure aluminum , dumbass. See how well it sticks. -_- HUHUHUHUHUH.

The great thing about that pin wrench is that any pin*head* with a lathe and other basic machine tools can make one in an afternoon, and endow it with all the features and corrections to the design one could want. Bigger, wider handle, locking, and interchangeable pins for a start.

[@bakerXderek]

Shocked you didn't put an Impact screwdriver on here. LITERALLY something you can't work on your motor without.

[@9kRPM_at_2AM]

This comment deserve a Cheah!

[@metallicafan114]

Impact driver isnt necesary.

[@thewatcher5271]

I Thought He Mentioned It At 9:50 . . .

[@Tonymoto1100]

I can't think of a single fastener I need an impact for on my fz-8.

[@pejapl13]

Go away BakerxDickhead, I'm surprised you're still on KZbin with you shit videos.

[@Bob-Maplethorpe]

This is a brilliant way to market Fortnine! When I started riding in 2005 I was pissed that I had to order everything from the US and pay duty that killed the deal. Shopping at the bike shop felt like a girl's wedding night after marrying a gorilla. This channel brought me to the store, and I now own some perfectly reviewed products that make this great past time even more rewarding

[@tzarnaev]

Wheres the engine rev intro sound?

[@Max_Marz]

Knipex pliers wrench in a 7 inch handle will replace every box wrench you use on a bike up to 1-3/8" with one tool. They will also break chains if you're clever. You must check them out, I'm a machinist and they've changed my life

[@ostmen_draugr]

Never had the issue with philips head & jis screws. Granted im not dumb enough to keep spinning a driver in a nearly striped head, rubberband trick works to get it out then replace the bloody screw

[@jeffruebens8355]

A new Harbor Freight tool store is opening soon near our house. I am binging on KZbin videos about what is good and bad there. Instead of a pin wrench, I use a big pair of channel lock pliers to get stuck oil filters off. A small sledge hammer tapped on the wrench handle helps with stuck nuts and bolts. If you buy the Harbor Freight dead blow hammer, try to keep it out of cold weather, spray Fluid Film on the outside plastic other than the hammer faces, and add a couple of hose clamps where the handle attaches to the head.

[@akquicksilver]

Fish out the metal (aluminum) shavings with a magnet when you're done! OK

[@markgilder9990]

Made me laugh.

[@itsChris65]

use grease when tapping and helicoiling no swarf in motor !

[@akquicksilver]

@@itsChris65 Yes I know, I'm a retired millwright. I was just quoting 49 while he was drilling aluminum.

[@itsChris65]

@@akquicksilver My comment was really aimed at anyone generally, just a bit of advice for those who dont know. I remember the first time greasing the helicoil, it was Really important the tip didnt get lost, and it came out stuck to the end, happy days almost tweaking waiting on the Snap On man.

[@halfSpinDoctor]

I knew this channel was good, but after watching this video I now know it is absolutely fantastic.

[@-ExperienceWithMe-]

"I like the part where he talked about tools"

[@r-mur]

The fact that the screwdriver turns counter-clockwise when struck is pure engineering genius!

I love my JIS screw drivers,one of the best investments I made

[@JG-fe1gx]

I can't ride anymore, but I sure love watching these videos.

[@triplepump]

"(A) tool... mounted on the bike." Witty, hilarious, and well written--this is the best motorcycle vlogger out there. Ryan takes the task to art. Oh, yes, and it's highly informative, but whatever. You'll be watching the episodes you normally would not be interested in. Who am I talking too? If you are reading this, you know this.

[@michaelberry530]

My new favorite KZbin channel. Great info and the commentary is hilarious.

[@mateo8760]

Compressed cardboard works for gaskets, it's the same as what gasket paper is made from and if you need a quick solution the manilla folder works great. Good sealant for gasket paper is permatex 3b as it is anaerobic same as loctite 515 for bolts and flanges

[@Aleph1010]

Wow, you actually put the link to the better amazon version of the pick-up tool than the one your own company sells. That my friends is integrity, right there.

[@rodmandealerman3297]

It's funny that you open up with a 'not clickbait' comment. That's the exact reason why I unsubbed from a motorcycle channel yesterday. I also blocked them from my recommended feed. I'll give you a shot. Oh, excellent info on this video. Many thanks!
