My motorcycle NEEDS this service... [S7-E83] 

​@@lockssista she got massive boost. Am watching her right now . Had to go watch all her previous episodes. Lol

🔥🔥🔥🔥

@billcook4768 I found her vids about a year ago. I began watching as she was beginning her trip through BC, Canada and up to finish in Alaska. This was her ride from Patagonia to Alaska. I live in BC so her trip though my home province was of interest to me. THEN I saw that she was travelling through West Africa. GOOD! I lived and worked in Nigeria for two years MANY years ago, and also had a small motorcycle. I rode that machine through most of Nigeria and to Niger, Benin, Togo and back and also into Cameroon and back to Nigeria. So I watched all of her vids from Ghana to Cameroon... and continue to watch her now. Nigeria has NOT changed very much in the decades since I was there, and the police shaking people down for money was a common occurrence. I never gave anyone any money though I was detained ("arrested"!) three times. It was never an easy ride in Nigeria because of corrupt cops, unlike the other countries that I visited. I commend her courage and stamina.

We dey here 😊

@@lockssista haha. I'm one of those that discovered her from that episode. Been watching all her videos since 😅

Biggest advertisement to them ever!

I was very surprised to see they had an injector tester. That’s rare even in American shops. If an injector is pulled here you can bet a new one is going in.

They definitely seemed to be a competent and efficient group of mechanics!

Real professionals, only Noraly can confirm, like riding a new bike.

Ditto. VERY impressed, with both the facilities and the guys doing the work. Good find, and one of the technicians got to ride Itchy Boots’ Alaska! He’ll be able to dine out on that story for a bit 😊

Very true

That... is heartbreaking and uplifting!

@@sroberts605 Yes it is, X2. thats our Noraly. Peace!

Wow! Noraly is definitely a kind and compassionate person! That was very nice of her to do that.

Sorry for your loss

That is one good looking manager

Imagine if a black Angolan rode up while white Brits waited in a huge line for gas in the UK and got served before everyone else. They would riot.

​@@paulg3012 yeah, definitely..

Thank you for the clarification ❤

Angola is very beautiful Country welcome to kenya

​@@paulg3012hahaha! Funny but it's true bro... We are not treated the same

Yes, they even had that fancy adjustable spoke wrench!

​@@paulkersey9493 the rare metric adjustable wrench 👍

Don't forget to mention the bearing press! Or bearing hammer, in this case.

Did you see the episode where they rebuilt her engine in a dirt alley, sitting on milk crates 😳 but .....seemed to do an adequate job . It's ran for thousands and thousands of miles since . Worried about a hammer and an old bearing to install a new wheel bearing is a little anal-retentive 🤔👌

I missed the blinker fluid.

a polish job with a bench-mounted buff wheel; high times!

yes, that was totally unexpected!

keeping things cool

Exactly, heat is dispensed easily on a clean surface ​@@blond339

We used to do that in Kenya at our workshop which specialized on Peugeot cars

what the guy is doing at 17:40 is not awesome. This bearing will not last.

У меня тоже пер дид монокле случился. Куска деревяшки на худой конец не нашлось. 🤔​@@kaba_me

@kaba_me he's using the old bearing to knock the new bearing in It will last Because the one he's hitting is about to get thrown away. Me personally I use a socket which is the same size as the bearing Using the old bearing is still ok

he used the old bearing to drive the new bearing in place, which is fine@@kaba_me

@@dirtbikerman1000 Using a socket is OK, as you are not hitting the core of the new bearing. He's hammering the core, and that's not good.

I didn't catch that as I was so focused on watching everything they were doing. Stands to reason when Noraly plays music where we can hear the lyrics it has meaning behind it like most everything else in video. Peace!

Interesting song..fits the occasion

The song is Faster Car by Loving Caliber if anyone is interested

I wonder how many people can claim to have ridden a motorbike after it took a swim... upsidedown!

Hi Sven. Me too. I spent 2 years in Luanda, working for Volvo trucks, but later. I lived there in 2012/14 and revisited familiar places. Probably we have common friends.😊

Luanda is indeed a beautiful city ❤. It's about 400 years old.

Sensacional explicação!! Sou falante de português e não havia percebido!! Obrigado

Not just any girl. But still a mystery to me that they are just waiting when there is at least some petrol to pump.

If you watched the vid you should know that she was told to go in front and TALK to the service people. They made the call, check the vid again. She did not jump the line.

Correct!@@caddyrack

I heard it.🤣🤣🤣

"itchy-booters" - new word for the dictionary! :)

Spot on my friend. From my personal experience, the African continent is a fantastic place. Living in Angola for 10 years now and I have no words to describe it.

Imo thats because most people have forgotten how to listen and feel with their heart due to being stuck in their minds! Places like Africa have to be felt to be understood :)

And that horrible roads, roads block, corruption, misery everywhere and sorrow and danger. Yes, some decent people are there, but what you claim " Rich Africa" look as very bad joke. Can you rent some of your land for people as long are not Russian to help organise things better way ?

​@@annateresa9814Being condescending is a trait that's mostly found in shallow minds

​@@annateresa9814Africa is definitely developing and we shall get there on our own terms. It takes time to recover from the ravage of centuries of slave trade, colonial exploitation and neocolonialism. China has done it, so shall Africa❤💪🏾💯

@@gerrytushh As far I know Russia is already " helping".

@@annateresa9814 your post is pointless, unfortunately.

ngl, Angola seems like a distant brother from Brazil, seeing the last videos made me want even more to visit Angola some day

Oil money. Won't last forever, but for now, even with the corruption, some trickles down to the population. Same situation in Gabon, which Noraly sadly was unable to visit. Tremendous and as yet undeveloped tourism potential.

Southern Africa is more stable and vibramt

Not much more organized just more familiar to you. Believe u not everything in Africa is organized you are just not familiar with the organization

When the beer trucks stop running, that's when we'll know if things are falling apart.@@u-know-this

Yes this was much better than Nigeria . Angola I think I will visit

No problem bro 🙏 Respect from Angola

​@@bardo0007Angolans are extremely friendly.

No, this is true Angolan hospitality. She went through a lot of trouble in most African countries and extortion by corrupt police officers.The truth is that most African countries are unsafe and inhospitable.

@@jgxc8 I haven't visited the majority of the African continent's countries, but in the countries I visited people in average have been very friendly ( according to me ). But corrupt police I have met at many places.

Noraly for World Ambassador.

​@@johnmfjwGoddess, She helps all people in all ways❤😂😊😮

Noraly is the Ambassador of Adventure Travel to the world.

It’s working. I never wanted to travel to Africa and now I can’t think of anywhere more fascinating and friendly!

I’ve watched this 3x

That will be nice 👍

I vote for the real thing…. 22:10

They can learn from the video series.

You mean like Nora the Explorer?

That would be nice. She’s so wholesome. Everything she needs to know she learned in kindergarten.

Evening from Cornwall. Uk.

Hello from Chile 🇨🇱👍✌️

Hello from The Netherlands 🙂

Bello from Cologne, Germany!

Hello from Paris, France.😊

@@alexbit1389what good is privilege if you don’t use it? When people extend a courtesy it’s best to use it so as not to insult those extending the courtesy.

I too thought Alaska cleaned up and looked beautiful. The shop definitely had a special cleaner and process to get it looking that good. Not just soap and water! Peace!

If you watched the vid you would have seen that she was told to go in front and TALK to the service people. Your IGNORANCE is shameful! Cheers@@alexbit1389

@@alexbit1389 but people were waving her over to the pumps that she used, and they were happy to accommodate her.

I suggest you watch the rest of her videos. Noraly has been exceptionally respectful of local people around the world, and you are not processing the fact that she was waved over to the pumps by those in the lineup. If indeed she has been given any sort of special treatment, this may indeed reflect the gratitude that people in multiple African countries have expressed for the positive exposure she has given to her viewers as to the generosity and good nature of local people and local cultures. Your hatred and disrespect is gratuitous and misplaced!

I was thinking something similar…it is as if her journey through this world is protected, a special karma emanates around her, her encounters are meaningful to all. I am just a viewer, and I only can imagine her effect in person!

@@terryheatwole6153people like her have it naturally. I can fake it on the outside but I can’t escape my cynicism on the inside. It definitely makes a difference in how you experience life.

@@terryheatwole6153 Right. She is special one.

She is from the island of Themyscira.....of course. 😉🤣

@@jasonzerbini2375 had to look that up.. makes perfect sense..

Great post Jason, despite couch critics here you saw it like I did. She did not jump the line, se was told to go to the front and SPEAK to the service people. They made the call to fill her bike. Good for her. Great vid as usual from her.

Alaska looks like her old self, minus the windshield. So good to see her getting what she needed. Both of them actually.

I'd suggest poffertjes and roosterkoeks to have the Noraly/Itchy Boots names. I was thinking poffertjes were Netherlands only but, I found they exist elsewhere. There's even a cast iron cookware manufacturer in Columbia that makes poffertjes pans. I'm hoping she gets to a place in Africa where she can get roosterkoek again. S5 eps31 22:10 "Life is good".

Good morning, Jason! I received that long awaited email with the newsletter this morning! Whew!!😉

@@lucindavillarreal2676 Good Morning Lucinda or probably good afternoon in TX by now! I did just see the email. Yes, relief. Also get the Loyalty member note and she explained in more detail why she bypassed the DRC. Haven't found your comment yet for E83 despite a lot of scanning. Work keeps getting in the way. LOL.

We can all learn another about being a good human from her.

It is indeed a beautiful country. I travel regularly through it ❤

You would think that Honda would sponsor her . Seems like a lot of free advertising.

I was thinking exactly the same thing, what’s a little sponsorship going to cost Honda, for a world traveler on a Honda motorcycle…duh!

@@tchin2020 Exactly, considering all the crashes Marquez cost them in last year's MotoGP!

Honda doesn't need more exposure. They're already #1.

Neither does Noraly, I also think that she herself is not looking for such a often marketing-oriented sponsor. Also creates commercial obligations, which she is not looking for.

Yes. Most African countries are like that in the city.

Dios está contigo !!

May God bless you my friend!

🙏🙏🙏

Sorry to hear of your latest health check with all the pain. Will keep you in my prayers at daily mass. God and his mother be kind 🙏❤️🙏 to you, this day and everyday.

Norally is VVIP others queued for fuel and Norally got first priority, which was amazing

@@alexbit1389 they sent her in front...

Westerners always get VIP treatments in African countries. Wish the reverse were true. Not their fault tho. They have good governance which means good living which means money to spend which Africans cherish.

Well she is!

@@alexbit1389they knew who she was and waved her ahead so what’s the problem?

Her videos are a blessing!

@beijo em Angola é sinónimo de saudação e por ser uma pessoa do sexo feminino ou oposto… Sou angolano, residente em Portugal…

Your grandson will love it. They are incredible bikes. The only thing that keeps me off mine is snow and sub freezing temps

Angola had a 27 year civil war that ended in 2002 but in reality it's a country with modern infrastructure since the 1940s. The city in the video (Luanda) was founded in 1576 and it has a long history. It has even an old portuguesese fortress called "Fortaleza de São Miguel". Most of the streets that you saw in the video are from around the 1950s.

​@@guleiro The city was completely destroyed after the civil war. They rebuilt everything from scratch

Igualmente a todos os nossos irmãos brasileiros ❤. De Luanda, Angola

She has gotten me addicted too.

Me too... Never missed.. ❤

Life happens

😭❤️❤️❤️

So sorry

Ooh.. Really bad memories...Wars in Africa are a bad thing

Dormi duas noites à porta do aeroporto, saí em Julho de 1975, fiz escala no Gana - Acra, para reabastecer.💚🍀🙏

Awesome! Peace!

I had a similar experience while standing in the drs office parking lot. I was waiting on my husband to get done and of course I can’t miss an episode if there are any means possible to see it. I was leaning against my car and a man walked by and asked, “are you watching Itchy Boots”? He said he recognized her voice as he was walking by. Lot of us Itchy Booters out there 😁

Bring this all to TV.

😂Me too, and I have a cousin that lives in Alaska. 😄 But to me “Alaska” is Noraly’s partner in Africa. 😊

😂Always!

Everyone

Impossible ,she just like to ride alone ☺

No! Noraly is a true Lone Wolf! She likes people to a degree, is tolerant to a point, but dealing with people day in and day out would eat her soul. This is why she travels alone. She is happy to meet you, but she doesn't need you in her life.

@@hagenlaveau Yes, I agree. Just because she is successful navigating the terrain, politics etc is not the same job as navigating tourists through said. What she gets away with alone would never happen in a group.

Ambassador!

angolais southern africa

I can't speak for her specifically - but on youtube travel vlogs, you're only seeing 20 minutes, out of perhaps a week of traveling. The most fun, nice or interesting parts are put into the vlog. I can imagine that most vloggers won't put in their lowest moments, because either they are concerned with other things than turning on a camera while going through an existential crisis, or they know that people might not want to see it and quit watching if there's a lot of negativity in the vlog - harming viewership and income. But one thing's for sure: Noraly never gives up. Even when things go really bad, next week she'll just be riding to another country again. I'm amazed.

​@@valentineisraelshabangu4069Central africa not south africa

angola is southern africa and south africa is a country southern africa is a region @@badaboys2098

Angolan politicians are also thieves, the difference is that Angola is much more rich in recourses (oil, diamonds) than most other african countries.

In Honduras 🇭🇳 is rainyn too 😅

It is snowing in Halden, Norway!

Raining in the middle night at Indonesia.. 😅

Raining in Brazil, Peçanha 😊

Raining in Lower Saxony Germany

😂 Regards from Luanda, Angola

Not to sound harsh, but as an African, we seem to treat foreignes better than we do our own. It's just the reality. But so happy to see there are still good people out there.
