Revitalizing My Leather Bike Jacket 

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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!

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!!!!

Again a very helpful and amazing Video!

This Channel is really something. keep the good work!

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!

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

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

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

I love your videos. Keep on the good work!

Your editing skills man ! love it

Great video. Thanks for making this video.

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.

This was so satisfying to watch haha

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

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

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

I love your r1 bro 🤩🤩

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

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 😁

Sir u r a AWS RU-vidr , love the way u edit , love from India

Damn. What a great Lockdown ride broo😂

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.

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!

Hahahahaa nice one about that ride to home bud 😂

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

I gotta get one of those

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

Your Video motivated me to clean my jacket

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

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.

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

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 :/

1:21 😂 a long journey home I see

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

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💕

That jacket looks a bit big on you

Your coat rack is bad ass.

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

1:30 might do this on April 1st lol

Just ordered some lol

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

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

When did you buy your jacket ?

Cleaning the OCD way 😁

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

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".

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

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

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

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

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😅

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

How about you send me some products?😂🔥

Second

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

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

Have u try one size smaller?

First

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. 👍

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.

Isnt that jacket way too big for you?

your jacket is lose try sizing down

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.

The Jacket is too big for you

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

the jacket not matching you but your very beautiful

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