I'm working on the weekend again and chasing that dwindling dollar. I'm ranting about nasty viewer comments and talking candidly about money and RU-vid earnings today. Skip around with the chapter markers below.
Time indexes:
0:00 The HOA mafia is issuing lawn violations, my lawn crew missed last week
2:45 Nasty viewer comments? Why do I live here when it costs so much?
7:57 I'm just a regular guy sharing life, RU-vid earnings discussion
10:14 Sponsorships and product bias? NOPE!
13:54 This is all voluntary, I do it for the community aspect
15:41 Breakfast plans with a good friend of 30 years
19:08 Sticky, competetive, pack-animal cagers
20:08 I like this Mustang Tripper Solo seat! 👍👍
24:50 Catching air over rough bumps, Rebel rear suspension kinda sucks

Agreed 💯! I'm just a regular guy who likes riding bikes and sharing the experiences. There is too much pomp and posturing in the motorcycle world these days, particularly from manufacturers and influencers peddling fake "lifestyles" and unrealistic expectations. My paradigm is simple: stay real, ride what I've got as often as possible, and make those memories while I'm physically able... adventure before dementia! Cheers! 😉👍 --QM

This video has it all. Politics. Explanation of hoa policies. Setting disgruntled viewers straight. And even a cameo by Quasi’s bush. Good entertainment. Side note: I’ve never understood why someone watches a channels videos if they dislike them so much. I’ve seen videos I don’t like. I stop the vid and move on. People just like to try and shit on others.

Hello Quasi, keep your chin up. You can be very proud of what you have achieved. I live in Germany and have been following every video for years. I recently went to the Honda dealer and looked at a Super Cub for my wife. We want to ride it across Europe on vacation. And it's all because you inspired me to do it. I ride an NC700X myself, which really is a fantastic bike. You talked about looking at the new model a few weeks ago. I can only recommend the NC series to you. By the way, your videos also help me in winter to bridge the motorcycle-free time and fight the winter blues. Best regards from near Berlin in Germany

Odd, I also spend roughly 7,800 a month, but that is in Danish Kroner (DKK), which leaves approx. 1,200 DKK for savings. Then again, I’m just a single living in a 610 sq. ft. apartment with a tiny garden and a parking space for my little old car. By Danish standards I’m considered to be relatively poor, but I’m not complaining because I’m living off social security income. Without it I would have been dead a long time ago due to heart failure and depression. So my economy is tight but I’m grateful for what I’ve got, because I know that there are millions of people out there who are worse off than me.

🙏🏻 Well, I'm glad you're still with us! The USA doesn't have socialized medicine or other livable financial support, so we're left to struggle and fight for ourselves. The only way to receive government benefits here is if you're a minority (few whites are granted anything), an immigrant (legal or illegal), or over 68 yrs old. Even then, those benefits aren't survivable in today's economy... can't pay the rent or buy enough food with only $1200/month. It's sad to say that the USA needs a complete overhaul. The elites have turned everyone here into a slave class, and we're all struggling to run ever faster on their treadmill of servitude. 😒 --QM

What is out there for available rear shocks that keep the same ride height, but have adjustable compression and spring preload?
@QuasiRAW
@QuasiRAW 28 дней назад
That's an excellent question, and I haven't shopped the options in a couple of years. The Burly Stilettos raise the height by nearly 2" from what I've heard, so that's not ideal for several reasons (e.g., seat height and altered steering geometry). The Ohlins shocks are fully adjustable, and they can be built to order with custom... but they're seriously $$$$. Gus, @OnTheRebel11 , recently upgraded his bike with the Ohlins shocks. He said it made a world of difference. You might check his channel for more info. Cheers! 😉👍 --QM

Sure sounds like jealousy to me. I understand it. I look at all those bikes an feal it. But I would not live in that city for it. An I do not want your workload. You're spending about 10 times what I am per month living here in the mountains outside Chattanooga. I am on acreage, know everyone in a mile radius, my commute was better even back when I worked in the city. But mainly I am not working my butt off to just pay my bills. So I see the nice house an all the bikes an wish I had it, then remember I don't want to trade my life for yours. Now as someone who has made that choice, it would be really easy to question why you choose what you do or even tell you you're doing something wrong. An I am not above that when I see people on RU-vid complaining about not being able to afford to live in places like LA but still staying there an asking for handouts. But if you can afford the city, why you choose it is none of my business. An any advice I could give would not apply as we live in completely different worlds. No one is going to ticket me if I decide to not mow my yard for 6 months. If that were the case, I probably would pay a guy to do it. Lots of people can only think from their own perspective an think what they do is the only correct way, then leave rude comments when people do something different. Especially if you are doing better than them in some way. I am willing to bet, most of those people are not doing that well financially themselves. Otherwise, why would they be upset enough to leave a rude comment.
@QuasiRAW
@QuasiRAW 29 дней назад
Perfectly said, sir! The ironic thing about my motorcycle collection is that ALL of them combined cost less than the average new family sedan... it's all a matter of perspective and choices on how to spend money. My dilemma is how to change the current situation and downsize with the least amount of trauma and disruption for my family. I'd love to revert to the bare essentials... about 1/10th of the costs, less junk, less chaos. Our original plan was to escape to Brazil for retirement, so we continued this burn rate until our exit window. Unfortunately, times have changed, so that's not looking like an option. That leaves shopping around in the interior states of the US or perhaps other areas in Central America or Europe (Italy, Portugal, etc). If we move internationally, our life paradigm will COMPLETELY change... really starting over. 😳 --QM
