VLOG: CB500X commute // Holiday Plans & Financial Reset

Scooter Cannonball 2021 // Day 9: Delta to Fernley
I had a Honda Elite 150. Even in Washington to Oregon commute crossing the I-5 bridge where the speed limit was 55, I felt unsafe. I can't even imagine why one would take any 150cc onto a freeway for anything but a very short distance. (Mine was less than 3 miles.) I later upgraded to a Yamaha Virago 250, and even then I did not feel very safe, although it would get up to 70 mph. Only took about a year of that, and moved to a Kawasaki Vulcan 500. That was when I could feel as safe as you can with the cagers on the freeway.
hope you had a great Christmas and have a great New Year
Thanks for the well wishes! I hope you had a good holiday season as well! 😉👍 --QM
Beautiful neighborhood
Merry Christmas Aaron, and a much better New Year for ya buddy. I’m feeling ya on those Christmas drivers too. They’re extra special sauce this time of year with phone to head (because Bluetooth is so sci fi I suppose) and erratic driving, etc.
Thanks, Mike! I hope you have a safe and happy holiday! 🎄😉👍 --QM
yeah Nissan, having their troubles, invested all their money into EV's? and not selling, now i hear Honda is talking with them? possible purchase? oh boy
I rode the trail bike to the gym this morning. It's really cold, then I get in the Sauna. Comfort kills the soul, I'm told.
This was a crazy ride man,😂Thanks for sharing. I think you made me a better rider today🙏🏾❤️✌🏾🇱🇷Your a 🐐
Hey Quasi, wishing you and your family a great Christmas and a safe and prosperous New Year! Hopefully 2025 is a lot kinder to you than the last few years.🎄
just came up on my feed, pretty enlightening as i've worked for companies my entire career...yeah, it is tough out there but it sounds like you're quite a success! envious...up here in new jersey now, weather is frigid (like 15 degrees this morning) so no riding for a bit....happy holidays and new year!
Howdy, Rich, and thanks for watching. I don't envy your cold weather up north... those winters SUCK! I hope you have a happy and safe holiday season! 😉👍 --QM
Hello Quasi. I just can't wait for your Quasi garage channel. Wishing you all the best for 2025. Happy Christmas to you and your family and may God always bless you with the best of health happiness and lots of success and motoring in 2025. Greetings from Karthik, India

the only good thing thats happened to me lately is my bikes are still on the ground but they are now under cover and not just under a tent. and as soon as i find out about my Taxes i hope to have a slab under them. went from about 120k a year to 9k of the year over night. and cant seem to get back up. when i had my stroke in 2009 i had over 160k in the back to pretty much do what ever i wanted to. not counting what i had in Mads Trucking. and if i had known then what i know now i would have took all my money out and put it in another bank and told them to come get everything. they couldn't hurt my credit no worse. i went from a 850 the highest that they read to a 430 the lowest they score. all over one truck that i owed 14k on and only had it 9 months and gave 60k for it so i was way ahead on my notes.
I been doing research on different kind motorbikes on this hold weekend Mr. Aaron and it`s hard because of money problems and financial and started new year and finishing paying on my IRS every since in 2012 from 401k!!
Thanks again sharing this video on commute trip on CB500X and to work at dentist office computer technician! Mr. Aaron 🍻
yup just hanging out...
Having to put down a trusted and dear family member like a dog is the worst thing I’ve ever had to decide and experience. So although I love animals, especially dogs, I’ve never had another pet since then (1994). I simply couldn’t bear to go through that experience again. That’s why I live alone, so I never have to lose anyone ever again.
I know you're not getting Rich making content but "WE MISS YOUR VIDEOS" I WOULD LOVE TO SEE THE PCX ONCE NEIL GETS THREW MODING IT. YOU & YOUR FAMILY HAVE A MERRY CHRISTMAS & A GREAT NEW YEAR. STAY SAFE & I HOPE YOU MAKE ALOT OF $$$ IN 2025 .TAKE CARE
KTM is bankrupt, what now with these many bikes. No more spare parts in the future.
I recently also bought a Hunter 350 in black gray with daily mileage with 4 miles on the speedometer. Price 3800,-$
What size wheels is this in inches?
So good to have another Quasimoto video. Pismo Paul.
You’re a good man Aaron. That ol girl I’m sure had a good life. When the time comes make sure you’re in the room with her so your presence and smell will be less stressful on her last moments.
Regarding winter sunshine, although the sun is lower in the sky during winter, it is typically, especially Houston, much less humid in winter, so what sun there is is less filtered. I'm from MN, and we call this effect, which begins in fall, "crisp" weather.
The bit about modern cars made me chuckle. I have this conversation with my wife nearly weekly. I just sold my 2017 F-150 as part of our travel-trailer RV system to purchase a camper van, in part because the 3.5L twin-turbo, twin-cam, 32 valve, VVT, port and direct fuel injected engine was beginning to worry me with how many ways it was possible for it to break. I replaced it, in the end, with an 11-year-old, 27k mile, non-turbo, 5sp manual Chevy Sonic, for all the reasons you mention. It was 11 years old because they don't make/sell cars like that any more. Why? In large part because of the EPA. A car like that would have to return 50+ mpg or be fined something like $5k per vehicle. The required mpg formula has wheel-base X track in its denominator, so bigger vehicles are hit less (fun fact: the Ford Maverick is much longer/wider than the old/2011 Ranger for this reason) for required mpg as well as being more expensive to start: $5k added to a $15k vehicle is 33%, as opposed to 6.25% on an $80k vehicle. And, the OEM makes much more money on an $80k vehicle than a $15k one, so "everybody" (who matters to them) wins. Never mind pollution equipment. Cars were clean enough around the year 2000, 2010 at the latest. Everything past that is a waste of money, time, and effort. And all this is even before you get into NHTSA requiring 6 airbags and who-knows what else for, weight-adding, safety equipment. I had a 1986 Mazda 323 I bought new whose rear quarter I could manually lift into the air (I'm a small guy). It weight something like 2000# in total due to no airbags, etc. Get rid of the overboard regulation and cars will become cheaper, simpler, more reliable, and more fuel efficient.
I find that watching your commute on these “entertaining” Interstates while sipping a fine 15 year old single malt is very therapeutic 🥃

Sending to Gracie from Oklahoma. If I had the money and the right scoot, I would have signed up for the Cannonbal Run 2025. Well, I have another year to prep for it.
I never get enough of watching your videos!! I love the longer trips though

Quasi, any news on doing the 2025 Cannonball Run?
Yep, I'm definitely riding in 2025! We are less than 6 months away from the start, so I'm beginning my brainstorming and ride plans now. Neil is bringing my PCX150 back to me this coming weekend after his Mad Max fabrication sessions. He added an auxilliary fuel tank that plumbs into the main tank, so I should have 4+ gallons of go-go juice for the Cannonball. We will be coordinating our team logistics, route plan, and departure timing over the next couple of months. Alex ( @RideWithAlex) from Romania will be shipping his scooter to Houston sometime in the coming months. He'll be riding with me (and several other Texas Cannonballers) across the country to Seaside, OR. We plan to motocamp most of the trip... it should be a blast. We'll have some upcoming live streams and group planning sessions, so stay tuned to both of my TH-cam channels for more news. You can also jump on my Discord server (free) to get realtime updates on the fun: discord.com/invite/DfC97FU . Cheers! 😉👍 --QM
When is the winter camping trip to Martin dies st. Park
We haven't made definite plans yet, but I'm hoping for a group camp sometime in the next couple of weeks! Neil is coming to Houston this weekend to deliver my PCX150 (new and improved), and we'll probably camp at Stephen F Austin Park this Friday and Saturday night. Adrian said he's ready to get out for a weekend, but he's not available this coming weekend. I suggested the following weekend (21st), but that's getting close to Christmas and lots of people will probably be hunkering down for the holiday. Hmm... decisions, decisions. 🤔 --QM
I'm a fellow IT contractor here in the UK. You are spot on, but its dangerous on a bike in the UK the congestion and bad driving is to blame. That said public transport is pretty good so I use that, my wife commutes by car ( a Renault Captur 0.9 litre small SUV) so you have to do what works for you. I totally agree about the excessive tech in vehicles, its spyware!
Mileage here in Eastern, NE is easily 30-40k a year if not more. Long highways, interstates, etc.
My Pixel 7a has a clear all button when you open up all running apps. It's convenient AF Yet another great ride video!
10:51 I have an ‘04 Honda Pilot and still love it with 210K miles. I do my own maintenance and just did a top end plenum clean out. The intake valves looked clean (I use Lucas fuel additive monthly) and I cleaned out the intake plenum ports, replaced the NGK plugs, spark plug tube seals and valve cover seals. My next project will be a new timing belt, hydraulic tensioner, and water pump. Just my own opinion, but I will do anything to avoid purchasing a new vehicle. You get mauled with by the prices, depreciation, insurance, and personal property taxes. And you always walked away from the dealer feeling as if they did you without any lube. 😱
Credit cards and that whole credit score system is modern-day slavery in my eyes people just don't realize it 😅 feels great not to be in that system anymore.
