I do my part on Watching your Videos.Many I watch 5-20 times. Some I turn on when I just listen to when taking a Nap. Thank you for your Hard RUclips efforts.$$$$ out of pocket.
As always, thanks for the support, James! You're one of the OG who has been watching and supporting since the beginning! I sincerely appreciate all of you out there, and I hope to meet you in person someday! 🙏🏻😉👏 --QM
I rode my very first bike ever a 2019 CB500X from Phoenix up to Montana and back. They are very capable both on road and off-road. Someone with the right skill could literally take this bike anywhere. However I am happier on my Africa twin with all the highway riding I do.
Agreed! I wish the CB500X had a bit more poke, but its efficiency makes up for the lack of power. If Honda would ever bring the NT1100 here, then I think my CB500X would be replaced... and the Rebel 1100 as well. That AT 1100 engine is just about perfect, and the NT platform is almost identical to the CB500X in terms of size and road manners. Too bad we're not worthy here in the States. 😒 --QM
Love watching these commutes but Jeez I wish I could work out your road regulations! I’ve driven in the US in the past but watching a skilled “native” do it rattles my brain at times. Another class video incidentally. I agree with other comments, you earned it, you spend it. Your family aren’t suffering and your priorities are spot on.
Succesful city riding/commuting is a very different skillet compared to touring. Strategic lane usage and aggressively-predictive/defensive riding habits are crucial to survival on our streets. Our cagers are not observant toward anything smaller than their giant trucks and SUV's, and their aggressive nature toward bullying people is outright dangerous. The struggle is real! 😉👍 --QM
FJR1300, 654lbs..I know, because i have it..and yes it is heavy, but no problem with wind gusts or pushed around by trailer winds, small twist of throttle and I get away of anyone and anything, it is beautiful...being that said, I am looking for a cb500 x or f or a Svartpilen 401, because small bikes rule too!
Ouch... you're correct... I thought they weighed in the high 500's. I've always wanted to add an FJR to my stable. I owned an FJ1100 and a FJ1200 long ago and put over 80K miles on each of them. I've ridden the FJR several times, and it's a buttery smooth bullet train... steam catapult acceleration. Unfortunately, it's a bit too wide for my short legs, so I'd need to carve the seat and drop the suspension just a bit to reach the ground comfortably. 😉👍 --QM
I'm with you ,I prefer a 17" front,/ rear tire for highway riding.The 19" on the newer 500x is the reason why I probably not get a 500x & get the equivalent to a 500f . 17F 17R & under 32" seat height for my 31" inseam legs. Under 425 lbs for my 66 year age. My next bike would be a Honda 500 or a 300-350 Scooter
You are a skilled video maker for your channel. I enjoy your Contant. I wish I could make videos and edit videos like you can for my motorcycle channel… But I am learning
Thanks for watching and leaving feedback! If you'd like details on my editing workflow and the various tools I use, email me at quasimotard@gmail.com . I'll be happy to reply with all the nitty-gritty details. You might be able to use some of that process to help your learning curve. I started with ZERO knowledge of how to edit video or use the various NLE (non-linear editing) systems, but I learned each tool to solve particular problems. I'm still learning... it's a challenge, for sure! Cheers, and good luck with your videos! 😉👍 --QM
Besides my 23 Yamaha XMax, I have a 2006 Mazda Miata MX5 NC Limited Edition #587. My other fun toy besides the XMax. My everyday ride other than the wife’s 2015 Toyota Sienna is a 2012 F150 Laredo 4x4 with 6 inch lift kit. Really enjoy all your videos Quasi.
Thanks for the support, Phil! That's a nice selection you have! I miss my old Ford F150 beater... I need to get that back on the road soon. I have enough variety in bikes and scoots to keep me entertained, but I don't have a car right now. So, I **NEED** another Miata... or at least that's how I'll justify it as a necessity. 🤣👍 --QM
I feel like 500-700cc on a bike is like the sweet spot for you riders in America. Good balance between highway power,fuel consumption and weight for city/leisure riding.
Totally agree! I had the NB base model (very simple), and I loved it. I beefed-up the suspension, installed an X-brace, and a Jackson Racing super charger on it... that thing went like stink! I regret selling it to this day. I'm looking for an NC in good condition now, and I'd probably do the 2.5L swap for more torque. 😉👍 --QM
Great video as always. throttle therapy even if vicariously is always a treat for me here. so BTW isn't that the same 471cc engine as in the Rebel 500, The CB500F, CBR500R, CB500R etc.? Also I heard "Carl Peterson" or something close to that.
Yessir... it's the same parallel-twin across all of those bikes (CBR500R, CB500F/X, Rebel 500, and SCL500 Scrambler). Honda has made incremental tweaks and improvements to that powerplant over the years since the first gen (2013-2015). The upgrades have mostly been in the transmission with revised shift forks and drum, slipper clutch, and other minor tweaks. Cheers! 😉👍 --QM
Hi Quasi! Don't take what I'm about to say the wrong way but I know what I'm talking about. Please Don't Cut Your Grass, unless you wanted to turn Brown. Tell your maintenance guys to raise the Height of their lawnmowers. Here's why I used to cut the grass for people to make money. I never had anyone see yard that I took care of turn Brown and it required less water to maintain. I'll tell you the secret to having a Beautiful Lush green lawn over the Summer in your case when it's Extremely Hot. Walk over to your grass and, stick your finger straight down into it and if it reaches your knuckles it's the right length and should not be any shorter than that. Most people I've told this to when they leave their grass longer they screw things up by watering it too much because the more water, the faster it grows. The Secret to not having to cut it so often is to water it Sparingly less water equals slower growth. In the case of your front lawn. I would not water it anymore and then a few minutes But cover it all. You won't even need to water it anymore than two or three times a week just as long as it looks Healthy, your good. You'll be surprised how well what I'm saying works! Everything you said in the video. I agree with you on regarding cars, motorbikes and even boats as well. I know people that want even by something with the computer and it has to be carbureted only! I had a vehicle that was 20 years old a 2002 Ford escape and when the computer went in it. I almost could not get it fixed. I was lucky my mechanic found one in an auto wreckers and reprogram it wasn't the right one but it would work. I myself have never bought a brand-new vehicle because the quality is just not there. Nowadays you have to either go quite a bit newer or a hell of a lot older. Because of the shortage of parts for a lot of vehicles nowadays so you have to do your homework even more thoroughly! Anyway, I just thought I'd let you know the secrets to owning a green beautiful lawn and less headaches with it. Another Great Video and Some Great Advice and I'm looking forward to when you get the Silver Wing back on the road. I always liked those bikes and some of the other large scooters and now because of you and others. The smaller ones as well. they're all automatics and I just looks like a hell of a lot of fun to ride and I don't even ride yet. Have a Good Ride and Stay Safe. John
2014 Honda Ctx700n. I averaged 14,000 miles at 67.07 mpg. Yes, I log every gallon of fuel. I enjoy boasting to Harley riders about mpg and how smooth the motor is.
You can't beat this bike.I had 2 of them a manual and a DCT. I'm not complaining, but I wanted to add that I didn't like the forward footrests. I am more comfortable riding with my feet underneath me. Also It would be nice to have a shaft drive to keep the maintenance down. The suspension needs to be beefed up for 2 up riding. The seat was uncomfortable, and to change the air filter was a nightmare. I know you can put a custom seat on it and add a nice rear shock. With that said, this is ultimately the most reliable, dependable, fuel, efficient long-lasting motorcycle you can buy. You can pick these up for 3k all day. These motorcycles will go 100,000 miles with regular maintenance, bulletproof engines, smooth as silk the horsepower and torque are perfect this is all you need to and basically half of a honda fit engine. I am shocked how these are not more popular.Unfortunately, most people buy harleys by name only they do not realize that there are a lot of other bikes out there that are super dependable and fun to ride. I'm hoping one day honda will bring out something with this engine that checks all of the boxes. Oh, did I mention that the center of gravity is so low that most anybody could ride this bike and be comfortable.
Agreed! I've mentioned that shaft drive issue a few times. If Honda would release the NC750X DCT with shaft drive, it would be the ultimate long-haul tourer and commuter... efficient and nearly ZERO maintenance. The NT700 Deauville ("dullville") was a shaftie, but it wasn't a big seller here in the States. 😒 --QM
@QuasiMotard l've seen a few of these NT700's around, but they're getting a little long in the tooth.I'm spoiled.I'm looking for a low mileage super clean one, AKA Unicorn 🦄 🤔
Mostly Mr. Aaron I love all your videos and know all about what talking about I use my money for complete collection animation for 20 yrs. over 3067 and most them when up double & triple price I got one box set I pay for $20 now worth $256!!
We're relatively fortunate to enjoy those "low" prices. However, we are sensitive to rises in fuel costs (particularly above $4.00/gal) because our commute distances are so long. The average person commutes over 40 miles/day for work here, so fuel costs add up quickly. I work with people who commute 150-200 miles DAILY for work... that's a lot of $$$! 🤯👍 --QM
Congrats on your Classic 350 and your Super Cub! Those are both great bikes. My original plan was to get another identical Hunter 350, but that's on hold for a while until my finances improve. I might dig into the wrecked Hunter to see if it can be rebuilt... maybe back to original, or as a brat/tracker build. Wish me luck! 😉👍 --QM
Howdy, Bryan, and thanks for watching! That's the RiderScan Blindspot Mirror: amzn.to/3nJjXLp . If that one is out of stock, then there are several knock-offs that are cheaper and seem to work almost as well ( amzn.to/49WKaNu ). You can search Amazon or Ebay for "parabolic blindspot mirror" to find alternatives. This parabolic mirror really helps situational awareness in traffic because you can see 180° behind you. There is a learning curve to use it properly because the image is distorted by the mirror's convex shape, but it becomes second nature after a few hours of riding. It's very rare for me to be caught off-guard with a cager hiding in my blind spot while I'm riding with one of these mirrors. The mirror is mounted on a MadStad Engineering adjustable windscreen: madstad.com/products/honda-cb500x-2013-up . That screen comes with the lower side "winglet" deflectors and the adjustable main screen. It completely transformed this bike into an all-day mile muncher. Cheers! 😉👍 --QM
Sure, will do! I'll record the whole maintenance process for the oil & filter change and the chain service. If the weather is decent this weekend, then I might try to tackle that on a live stream. 😉👍 --QM

Agreed! I've also been looking into the Kei trucks now that they are officially road-legal in Texas. The suzuki Sambar van or even the Honda Acty with a camper box on the back would make an interesting micro RV. 😉👍 --QM
@@QuasiMotard after looking into it. the only reason i dont want a honda is because they to slow. but one of the most powerful. but i dont plan on pulling anything with it or going mudding.
I was considering the Indian Scout Bobber when I got my Rebel 1100. The Scout's torque and engine sound were amazing, but I couldn't cope with the measly 2" of rear suspension. Our roads in Houston are too rough for that. Cheers! 😉👍 --QM
I've thought about going that route, but that completely destroys the weight balance of the Miata. I'm interested in the 2.5L swap because it's a no-cut, no-mod upgrade (aside from minimal stuff like the ECU). If I had the time and money, I'd rather build a Factory Five 818... that would be 👌 --QM

“Fuel prices are on their way back up. But still under $3 bucks”

500cc is all the power you'll ever need.

I've thought about going that route, but that completely destroys the weight balance of the Miata. I'm interested in the 2.5L swap because it's a no-cut, no-mod upgrade (aside from minimal stuff like the ECU). If I had the time and money, I'd rather build a Factory Five 818... that would be 👌 --QM
