    Great video and editing-check. Interesting content-check. Lots of detail-check. Honesty and life perspective/lessons-priceless! I watch you (and this channel) because it appears many of our interests align, so chances are- anything you are interested in spending the time to shoot and edit and put out there-I’m gonna watch it! As someone with a birthday ending in a 0 this year, It’s great to see someone embracing a change and betting on themselves.

    Brother, we need a garage tour! Love that table at 3:42 that has the 2 outlets right on the front and is on casters!!

    Cool ride. GLWS. Hard to sell something with a lot of sweat equity, but can't keep em all.

    What a beautiful bike.. with my favorite color

    • @JasonExplainsThings

      It's pretty unique. From my research it is an OEM Honda color (Sunflower Yellow), but all SL90s were either red or blue. So someone went through the trouble of professionally repainting it a different Honda color. Very strange.

    I'm not into motorbikes, but I like the fact that your focusing on classic, good fun bikes, and I'll be along for the ride. Keep the channel growing, and best of luck Jason.

      Appreciate it man. Wish folks didn’t mind a variety in topics. 😅 But YT doesn’t seem to work that way anymore.

    Man... that's a really cool old Honda, I'm over on the west side and it's temping to buy it, and ride it over the pass back to Tacoma and make a video of it on my channel I'm bringing back to life. It's worth every bit of $3000, even in the winter here. Very nice work, Jason. Keep going on UA-cam here, make the content you want to make. My channel (not the account) is not taking off either, I'm still making and posting all of the videos I want. Have met a couple local fans recently because of it, I'm living my dream and if it takes off, cool, if not? I'm living my dream anyway.
    Thank you for your raw and real videos sharing personal struggles with us. UA-cam suppresses those videos heavily I've noticed. I did an inspirational video out riding trails, and it got 1% of the typical views. Post a video doing 120 mph standing up, thousands of views. Keep going, you are doing well, believe it and tell yourself that. Thank you, Jason.

    My late brother's 1st bike was a SL90 but it was metallic blue/white stripes and chrome fenders. Dreaming of owning another. Nice!

    Very nice bike. Great video. Yes to seeing your “two wheel adventures”. I enjoy both my Tacoma and TW200, you’re not alone.

    I can see that you’re feeling down, hang in there brother, you did a really nice job on the bike 👍😁

      Appreciate it. The sad face for the thumbnail is just to try and make it eye catching. Not really bummed about selling to be honest. It's time to pass it on. It was too much money and time but it's always cool to rescue something. And the job stuff is a constant challenge but it's going as well as it can. My wife and I are being very smart about everything. I haven't hardly touched my severance so we have quite the emergency fund just sitting there. I need to figure out something by the spring. If not I'll just need to take any job.
      I wish UA-cam was going better. I feel like I'm being consistent in topics, quality and upload schedule. Perhaps after 6 years it's just run it's course? But all is good. God's got my back and it'll all get figured out. In the meantime I'm pushing forward.

    I love the bike videos. I have a ct-90 that I've been working on, and you've been a great help as far as what to expect.

    • @JasonExplainsThings

      Thanks Chris! Yeah the SL90 engine is exactly the same. Can't wait to start the CT70 project (teased in the background) at some point.
