cost of life in NYC + what do I do? LONG DEEP Brooklyn - Ducati NYC Vlog - GAS TANK QUESTIONS v1426

What do I do and how much does it cost to live in NYC. Watch me struggle and fumble to answer this surprisingly very complicated question. I tried my best, but was it good enough. Obviously, something like this is incredibly unique to each individual so all of the information that I did provide is more or less useless. Hard to generalize on rent and other budgets. Oh well. It was still a nice long and deep ride into parts of Brooklyn I do not normally visit. Anywho, thank you all for your time , love and comments. Ride safe, be well and if you read this far let me hear you say "deep slip"

Best motorcycle vlogger on KZbin. No fake bullshit. Just less than perfect bikes, bad language and questionable maneuvers. Love it. Keep it up keeping it real.

[@ducatinyc]

Thank you SO SO much. Thats one hell of a compliment. Thank you.

[@nyChannel09]

@Reed Miguel reported, stop it. Leave his channel alone with ur scams.

[@domG]

Glad I found your vlog! Love it. Love in Brooklyn and NJ and love your view of the city. Thanks for sharing your experience! Stay safe and ride free. I ride a Honda CBR600. Newbie still learning the ropes. 🏍️😀

[@ducatinyc]

You are very very welcome my friend! Nice bike! Ride safe and learn swift!

[@TomBMotoV]

Well good morning than! 👍🏼great vlog again!

[@ducatinyc]

Thank you as always my brother!

[@desmonino27]

Let's go let's go !!!!!!Nice video again !!!Keep up!!

[@ducatinyc]

Thank you mega much!

[@C_bisquit]

I like how your camera makes some of these tire rims looks like stop motion capture, like at 4:30 :)

[@ducatinyc]

hahaha true i guess the 60fps is glitching out :)

[@AlliKhat718]

Hey, you drove right past the apartment i grew up in! Thanks for bringing back the memories bro.

[@ducatinyc]

Where was that? And you are most welcome!

[@AlliKhat718]

@Ducati NYC Vlog 3rd Ave and 77th. I used to go to that bagel boy down the street lol

[@xdural6269]

I think it's great. Living in Brooklyn, working in Dumbo is close by. And captivating Manhattan anytime within reach.

[@ducatinyc]

Life is good. I can't complain thats for sure :)

[@petrcavasin1041]

So cool to watch this one, especially when here in Italy we have red zone in Veneto region, that means we can't go for a ride.. At lease someone elsewhere on the planet can :D what a period to live in.. Cheers and have great days!

[@ducatinyc]

My pleasure to share my rides! Hopefully you all get to ride soon!

[@keithwheeler8381]

When i first peeped your videos 4 years ago i knew you was russian i can hear it in your voice man i was like bro thats dope

[@ducatinyc]

Haha good stuff brother! How did you recognize?

[@jehanzebkhan8063]

Blessed my mornings 😉

[@ducatinyc]

And its my pleasure!

[@gryphongryph]

Love you videos from a fantastic city, one question, hearing some vloggers complaining that mounting the phone on the handlebars can destroy the camera in the phone, have you had any problems and what mount are you using, thanks!

[@ducatinyc]

I have a anti vibration attachment on my Quadlock - to prevent any sort of damage that you're referring to. I did ruin my previous phone though. Shame.

[@srl9727]

The theme continues, "deep slip" !

[@ducatinyc]

Oh it never stopped :)

[@ftby59mikeD]

If you've ever stopped at a coffee cart called Expressatura in Manhattan, that's my nephew Jared's!👍 ride safe.

[@ducatinyc]

Ooooh I will have to look that one up!

[@nyChannel09]

25:55 looks like from a videogame to me. So unreal i dont know how to say it, as if its a sequence out of GTA5 (Im not american) Like these big houses/skyscrapers on the horizon. Very nice

[@ducatinyc]

I hear ya! Sometimes i feel the same way and can't believe this is my town.

[@DrivinginNewYorkCityNYC]

Hey =D. Long time no see. Also, I got rear ended Q_Q. sniff sniff. The other side said it was their fault and now Progressive paying the bill $2400 for bumper, tailgate door, and labor. I am fine. Nothing broken and the person that hit me is also fine. =D I miss my 2018 Honda Fit EX. Poor baby. Going to get the front fix too, mechanic said maybe cost $1500, hood, fender, front bumper, and hood fix. If the headlight housing need new one will cost more.

[@ducatinyc]

Damn man, i hope you're back on the road soon. Accidents are the worst :(

[@FAZYKILLER]

The city had been adding tons of new speed cameras that don’t show up on Google maps, be cautious 😉

[@ducatinyc]

Always - plus they always show up on Waze right away and thats what i use :)

[@mikemiller774]

Year old video, gauges working :) also view is not depressing as usual.

[@ducatinyc]

Thank you for the love man and yea, I think you're about right with your costs.

[@bkbiker2214]

How do you rate heated gloves vs heated grips? I tried on some heated gloves (maybe even same as yours) and they seemed too bulky for subtle control. Definitely one or the other next winter in NYC though - I ride all year too.

[@ducatinyc]

I've never used heated grips - i run BMX grips on my Monster because BMX bicycles are LIFE. But as far as the bulk of the heated gloves - you get used to it immediately - or at least I did - and the subtlety of control returns after a few rides. I don't even notice the bulk anymore.

[@bkbiker2214]

@@ducatinycThanks man. Say whaddup if you see my black aircooled multistrada around town.

[@FunWithAJ]

Lots of info here that I've been meaning to ask you! I knew your profession but didn't know that you owned your apartment. That's awesome I'd be curious to know how you accomplished that. I got the stim packages but in 2020-2021 nearly doubled my income so no longer would be eligible (broke 6 figures in 2020). It sounds like we make around the same salary yet I struggle with a saving a down-payment to buy a spot.

[@ducatinyc]

I been saving for many many years - paid off all my college loans super early and dumped all of my savings on the downpayment. like, ALL OF IT. I'm yet to make 6 figures even with all my side hustles but soon I'm sure. Its funny how stimilus package lets you know how much a person makes :)

[@FunWithAJ]

@@ducatinyc gotcha makes sense. Yeah I still have school loans. Just over 15k. Also don't feel bad about not breaking six figures. I was making 70-85k for the longest time (a good 4 year stretch). Due to not being promoted by a shitty manager for over 3 years. Then I made some really strategic moves and made over 50k extra in increased salary in a year. That gives you a very rough general idea of how much I make as of 2021. We should probably take this convo over to our insta dms if we get any more specific lol.

[@CoolManDudeRN]

17:10 What is that car on the left lane doing? Causing all that traffic... lol....

[@ducatinyc]

I'm guessing that person was scared for their life and pooped their pants. Driving is frightening

[@pookiewookie7679]

How often has your bike broken down and you had to call road assistance to pick it up?

[@ducatinyc]

Never. Ever. In 60k miles. Not once. Knock on wood.

[@matthewthomas5997]

You should rent out your apartment and bike tour Vietnam - it would be all expenses paid!

[@ducatinyc]

I wish I could, not sure I can get that kind of time

How did you get started in your field? Do you have a degree in finance?

[@ducatinyc]

I have a degree in Economics. To start i was kind of at the right place at the right time - i was working as a supply manager/secretary more or less when I knew the company was hiring for a financial position.
