"This has been the longest period of not posting any videos on YouTube since I started my channel in 2018 (*insert motorcycle accident and recovery time).
BUT - I am going to be back with a new season of Itchy Boots adventures starting in early October 2024, so it’s only a matter of a few weeks now !!

Last preparations for my motorcycle are in progress, I’ve collected an important visa and most of all - I can’t wait to hit the road!!! Let’s go!!

She has bought new tools, so she has decided on a new steed. Wonder what bike she is getting, and where she is going?

Weight is a real issue for her - picking up a bike. And she has tasted the benefits of a good suspension. Not sure if the Himalayan ticks all the boxes?

The new 450 is much improved and a "game changer" if you listen to all the Vloggers :D

The new Himalayan, at 198kg wet plus 30kg luggage - 40kg heavier than a CRF300L. 230kg is a lot of weight to lift. With 29kW - almost the same as the CRF300. She is smarter than that.

I agree that the CRF300 is perfect for her. There isn't anything better all round that I am aware off.
 
Getting the same bike twice in a row is so boring, but then she had two Himalayans in a row.
CRF300 Rally with seriously upgraded suspension would be a no brainer.
Reliability is a key issue here, and the previous 300 did 80K with minimum issues.
 
She has some nice Wera tools ready to go

Dont see a 24mm spanner so guess wont be a CRF300. 27mm spanner it’s gonna be some KTM / Husky / Gas Gas

That 27 looks wrong. The actual jaws are a bit bigger than the 14 next to it. 17?
 
So she says her first vid for this season, and showing her new bike, can be expected for the 29th of this month
