VLOG: Honda CB500F Commute // Weekend Work & Ducati Disaster?

I dusted off the 2013 Honda CB500F for a work commute today. My son hasn't been riding it lately due to the summer heat, so I figured it could use some exercise. I'm rambling on many topics again, so skip around with the chapter markers below.
