REBUILDING my Honda CRF300L Rally from SCRATCH 

And it’s a wrap! The official last video of season 6.. 🥹 You have now also caught up with me in real-time, because I am still waiting for Alaska to arrive! During season 6, I had built up the time between filming and releasing episodes substantially. That had several reasons and advantages. That way, I could reach Alaska in time before winter, didn’t have to stress with deadlines, I could make sure there was an episode ready every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, I had time to race the Baja Rally and spend extra time on editing those videos. It also allowed me to keep my real-time location hidden, for my own safety, because the internet is mostly a beautiful but sometimes also a bit of a scary place :) But… shipping a motorcycle with sea freight is a time consuming hobby, so now all there is left to do is wait. Once my motorcycle arrives, I will start riding and filming and give myself a bit of a head start again so I can edit the first episodes before releasing them. Fingers crossed I can start soon because I am super excited to hit the road again! ❤❤ I wish everybody a very happy 2023 and talk soon!!

Thank you Noraly for trusting me to make your visit to Alaska successful on Alaska! Trusting 2 KTM guys to rebuild your little Honda in a backyard shop was an immense honor! You were stressing with a smile and your usual positive attitude, energy and lightheartedness! It’s a true pleasure to work with people like yourself that keeps me doing what I do in the Motorcycle world! Good luck on your next adventures and keep in touch! Maybe we will see each other again someday, especially since we will be on the same continent next year! 😊

In 2023, I watched this season. Every videos on this. Didn't missed a second. Took me while but i'm gladly watched all of it. I'm sorry my english is not that much good, but i must say it was amazing. And i felt that movement when you got emotional at the end movie. I thank you for your courage, bravery and for showing that amazing world to us. I can't tell you enough how happy to watch them. So thank you Noraly. I promis i will see the other seasons as well.

I just finished a epic 4 day trip on my Husqvarna and one really awesome encounter I had was I encountered a stranger at a gas station and he asked me if I watched Itchy Boots! I was ecstatic, it was so cool having something in common with a stranger like that.

A Big Bravo to the Mechanics. They know what they are doing. Not very many nlike them.

My guess is Australia for the next season.

I like how the new black and red-orange colors with the tinted windscreen make the bike look meaner and more stylish.

Love it when the mechanics pushed the start button and BINGO....A smooth cooperating grumble from Alaska!

Just wanted to say thank you for showing the whole rebuild. Us gear-heads really appreciate it.

On behalf of everybody watching and following Itchy Boots I like to say thank you to the two guys who worked on the bike and all the supporting people and supplies 👍👍👍 Thank you 👍

I love all you are doing Norally. As an older rider,that has hit a wall physically, hip replacements, arthritis, I live through you! I enjoy all you do, you make me feel like I am still riding! Thank you! We love your adventures and many of us, who can not ride anymore, we watch and dream through your adventures. Please, when your in a rough spot, know, thousands of new riders, thousands of veterans and any one between that gap, love you! You are the strength when I know my legs couldn't do that ride! I and many others love and respect you! you are living our dreams we didn't we had , and we wish you well! Thank You!

🇮🇹 Here WE are, folks! Gooood Afternoon, Noraly, Internet, sisters and brothers, let’s goooooo, as usual! 🇮🇹

I love the way Itchy Boots travels globally but thinks locally.... Always using local resources, like private mechanics, or the photographers that is the daughter of the local moving company owner... and on and on... Not only does she support locals, but she builds rapport, and we get to see the best of everyone she touches, interacting as a team..... It matters not the continent or the language spoken... Truly incredible, in my view!

I have been watching some of the previous videos during this hiatus and just had a great laugh while watching a live stream from December 2019. Itchy Boots was answering a question about how fast does she rides and mentions that she doesn't ever expect to go blasting down a dirt road at 80 or 90 kph. Of course I flashed back (forward) to her spending a bit of time plucking out cactus thorns after crashing in her Baja Rally! To her credit she does state later in the video, " Well you never know whats going to happen" She brightens my days and is an antidote to all the doom and gloom.

As a person who has rebuilt several Bikes from the ground up, I truly can appreciate what I just watched. Alaska turned out amazing !!

This season was my first experience with Noraly. I really like your positivity even when you're obviously having a hard time. Itchy Boots never becomes Bitchy Boots.

She doesn't use patreons and when was the last time that one of her videos was interrupted to run an ad. Hmmm, can't remember one, ever. She has the most intensely blue eyes I've ever seen. Yep, she's a robot. No, actually she is one of the purest Adventurers on RU-vid and I hate to miss an episode, and I ride everyday. Discovery Channel has nothing like Noraly. Brilliant! See you soon.

Normally you inspire me to ride cleaner and harder to become a better rider. Motorcycles are my passion. Thx for letting us ride along!

Hi Noraly Thank you for your wonderful videos, and positive energy. can't wait for next season.

Amazing work by both Bill and Darian for tearing down and rebuilding Alaska better and stronger for another 40,000 K. Also great job on beautifying Alaska Noraly, she is looking really spiffy.

Well, not only did you do it right, you did it your way! You not only did all of that, but by being involved it the rebuild, you now have a much better knowledge and understanding of how ALASKA is put together and how she works. Beautiful! Great to see you set off on another adventure and best of all!….you’re taking us along!!! Take care, we’re anxious to explore with you.

Happy New Year - and best of luck in 2023 and thanks for taking us along on all your adventures. MC 💖

Just watching you around bikes, it's like your mind is in constant motion... always learning! As always, thanks for inviting us along.

Absolutely love her positivity ! When the situation hands her lemons, she makes lemonade. Others would complain but Itchy just takes it as it comes !

I think I've watched more of your videos than I've watched any tv show. You got a good thing going here. Alaska looks great. Looking forward to your next adventure!

The guys and you,did a great job putting Alaska back together.

Many Thanks Noraly for a very enjoyable 2022 season following you. Looking forward to your new adventures in 2023. Your bike looks totally transformed, the upgrades are just what you needed for further adventures.

Thanks for all your efforts to always give us the best views and highlights of your adventures. Looking forward to a new season 😉. Take care 💖

"Say it ain't so; say it ain't so. We're entering 2023 without a M-W-F fix of Noraly?" Many, if not most of us, live vicariously thru you. Your weekly presentations provide each of us an escape into a remote region of the world few would dare to visit, much less a lone figure on a motorcycle. The upgrades to the bike are awesome. I hope they serve you well in your new adventure. Truly admirable how a lone figure traveling the world on a motorcycle can have such a profound influence on so many people.

IF I had to make a wild guess. I'd say your going to Australia. Happy New Year, and new adventures! =D

Happy New Year to you Noraly and all the Itchy Boots community, can’t wait for your next chapter, stay safe and keep yourself nice x

you are an extraordinary person and a role model for all adventurers 🥰

I love the way you took care of that Honda ❗️ It will serve you well ❗️

What a build! What a great group working on Alaska. I have enjoyed this season so much. I wish I had done something like this maybe 50 years or so ago. But I still ride, street and dirt. I bought a Himayalian this year and she will continue to explore my beloved Oregon, thinking about Noraly's further adventures! Can't wait!

What fun. Looking forward to all your new adventures.

Can’t wait😊 Best of luck, wherever the next adventure begins!

Can’t wait for the next adventure.. I have shown your videos to my granddaughters, 7 & 5 years old. Every time I see them they ask about where you are and if they can watch another video!! You are a true and positive ambassador of the motorcycling community!

I have watched a few other solo rider videos lately. I now know why I love your videos so much. You emphasis the ride and difficulties of the ride. We become aware of your stresses but mainly the ones you encountered riding. You also educate on the area you are riding through. Thanks for sharing and will patiently await the next season.

I have really enjoyed listening and seeing her adventures.takes me back to my youth. Safe travels and best wishes

Hi Noraly, always wonderful and congratulations for completing the 6th season not without difficulties and inconveniences but brilliantly overcome thanks to your skills, your constancy, your common sense and even a small dose of luck (...which doesn't hurt never!!!!!!). Best wishes for a happy 2023 and thank you for the wonderful adventures you will give us.

Well i'm pretty sure that you'll gona do the next trip to Australia, and maybe New Zealand as well. ( well in a way oceanic continent )

Another continent ??.... Australia?? 😊 Your bike is looking great.

I am excited about the next chapter, Alaska looks great. Enjoy the time off will pick up when it begins again.

Great build. Wow that's a lot of broken parts. Blessings to have great friends that can build and fix things. Can't wait for the next journey. Stay strong and healthy. 🙏✌️

She looks awesome !! Noraly is so hands on!! So as 2022 comes to a close..what an eventful year this has been for Itchy Boots, hey? In the RU-vid world- you either have “it” or you don’t. The insanely successful Itchy Boots channel has proven she has “it”. She has a genuine and natural ease in front of the camera. She has an uncanny ability to engage and capture her audience with her super charismatic personality. She has become a master filmmaker and content producer. Thank you Noraly..keep following your dreams and let your big heart of gold guide you to your next destination. We will keep following you no matter what content you choose to produce. So remember folks to like and subscribe her videos…that is the best way to say “Thank You”. Let’s go Itchy Boots! See you in the next video! Cheers to you Noraly! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!❤❤🎉🎉

Those guys are really really experts on it. It's so good to watch them doing their job. Alaska is back again!

Alaska’s new look is awesome and thanks for the scenery as always

Norally , Thank you for an incredible year of exploring and discovering all the world holds for us. You took us there and I hope you show us more. One trip around the world and you shift degrees a few, you will see another whole new world. We need you ! RIDE my Friend RIDE!

The love the internet has for you Noraly is nothing short of Astonishing. you go girl

You are looking so healthy - the break has obviously done you good. Can't wait for the next adventure to begin. Happy New year Noraly.

Thank you for all your Videos, I thoroughly enjoyed your amazing journey. Also very nice up grade and maintenance on Alaska. Looking forward to your next adventure. You are the best.

I didn't realize how much I enjoyed your videos until you aren't on anymore. Your interactions with people and being at new locations my favorite. Down the dirt roads not so much since I live in a western state and get all that I want

this year has been a turning point for me, Itchy boots "would bite a fly" and after years I was able to ride my own motorcycle 😍 You can't understate how great, the only inspiration *Noraly* has been😃 Thank you! ! !! You made the year memorable 😊 2023 is not believed to be good, but let's make it good👍

I just remembered a sign hung in a motorcycle shop that said, "labour-$20/hr, $30 if you watch, $40 if you help. That was before Itchy was BORN. 😉

Noraly when alaska idling the exhaust sound incredible... wow... 🥰

Simply the most anticipated VLOG on RU-vid, thank you for the quality of your content and storytelling, You are a beautiful person, your energy, enthusiasm and tenacity are a joy, living your best life! 👍

Can't wait to see where you're off to next! My dream is to be able to freely travel like you! Thank you for sharing your journey!

Well Noraly, I think you have hit the "big time" once you start receiving parts with your youtube handle engraved on them you have made it. Love you and your content. I so look forward to any new adventures you will be on. Best Wishes for the New Year. "Go Itchy Boots"

From Puerto Rico, USA. A little island 110 x 35 miles, in the Caribbean. God bless you in your new adventure.

Big congratulations to you Noraly for finishing your trip and somehow managing to shoehorn the Baja rally in! Love from me and my wife here in NZ. Oh, and I know you are not landing here because we are not on a continent! Cheers, Al

Awesome season, Noraly! So glad you extended it to the Baja rally and the Alaska rebuild. I can't wait to see what's next. If it does turn out to be Australia, and there's anything you need a hand with in Victoria, hit me up.

Alaska looks like a brand new bike! I love the new look. You both deserve all the upgrades after all your miles of riding. I’m excited to see where your next adventure takes you! It’s winter in Minnesota so I spend alot of time watching you ride and living vicariously through your adventures. Thank you for all of the time and effort you put into your videos and thank you for sharing the adventures with us! 🎉

The rebuild looks awesome!! Can’t wait to see your next adventure.

Alaska is now re-built and looks fantastic with her new livery and parts . She,s “itching “ for her new adventure , can’t wait . Have a good rest and be good to see the new ride staring again . Paul

Alaska is even more beautiful than she was new! WOW! Ready to Rock and Roll!! I am really, really looking forward to your adventures on the "NEXT" continent! Best Wishes for the New Year! 💖💖🏍🤠

Nice upgrades and the new colours look great, look forward to your new adventure

What wonderful people to help you out like that - new an improved.

Thanks a ton bill and company for helping rebuild Alaska, you guys have worked tremendously hard not just for Noraly but for all her die hard fans who are eager to experience her next adventure.

Wow, is this the same bike? Awesome. Fantastic job to the 3 of you!

February 2, 2023, saw your cool photo on Facebook. Cannot wait for Season 7.

Mason KLEIN 3° pour la première étape du DAKAR !!! Vous avez eu un professeur de navigation haut de gamme... A+

Well thought out setup, proactive rebuild, and nicely planned photo op and shipping. I am betting Alaska will be AKA Australia in a few months!

So awesome that you were able to be in the shop and be an integral part of the rebuild. Loved the rebuild music, too. 😀 Alaska's first startup sounded like "Let's Go!" That deep orange and black combo is sa-weet! The tinted windscreen does give a touch of Batmobile. And, of COURSE, the shipping guy just happened to have a professional photographer as a daughter. 😁 So now I have a chance to backtrack to some of my favorites of your past adventures while you prepare for the next continent - yippee!

thanks for the trip 2023... HAPPIE NEW YEAR safe travels !!

So looking forward to your next adventure

After selling my last bike 5 years ago, I'm ready to buy another this spring. This channel has finally done that to me.

It has all came to another bitter sweet end again, Noraly. You look very happy with yourself. It shows you are on top of things in Alaska and happy with Alaska your new old bike. Moreover, the success of riding through two continents. In addition, you just completed another milestone by participating in Alaska's rebuilding. Understanding mechanical systems enables a person to prevent unnecessary wear and damage. I can't wait to view your upcoming adventure. Cheers, Leon

The little 300 is looking bad-ass! Proper mirrors, proper exhaust,... Very nice!!! I would prefer a clear winshield as well, but that dark one goes well with the rest of the bike. Looking forward to see the bike back in action!

It was a good season, Alaska looks really good with the new graphics. Looking forward to the next adventure.

Noraly looks like a pro turning wrenches. The exhaust looks great and sounds really good. All the comfort changes are always worth it. Alaska’s make over and upgrades were a huge success. 👍🏻

What an amazing rebuild from being gutted and completely refinished! Kudos to your mechanic team in Alaska! Your bike, Alaska, looks good as new, even better with the upgrades and enhancements. Alaska's new muffler is the bomb! Great to hear you feel comfortable and love the ride you're getting, but the slightly higher rise may take getting used to on rougher terrain, as you are such an able and skilled rider, that won't be an issue. I can't wait to see you continue your adventures, explorations, and discoveries by putting yourself through natural and inner character tests beyond even what you may expect. I am kept in suspense about where Alaska is being shipped to... what lucky continent is next? Will it be the Australian outback to continue your Baja rally experience? Asia? Africa? You've done the western hemisphere, so there's still lots of world left for you to conquer on Alaska! As usual, I wish you God's blessings, great luck, and godspeed Noraly Itchy Boots!

Good luck to you as you repair for our next adventure. I absolutely love the look of the bike and all you did, colors mech etc👍

Its funny how people that have the most beautiful smiles have a lot of grief and hardship behind them. Great travels Lady.

Alaska looks awesome. I’m guessing you are heading to Australia but I’d really love to see you travel through Mongolia!!

Such a joy to follow the mechanics’ descriptions of the details!

Thank you so much for your work. Watching your videos has inspired our young children to want to travel the world and not be afraid to try new things. They were so tickled when you traveled through areas that we have been to.

Nice to see Mason win Dakar day 2 and move to the top of the leaderboard. I feel like I know him after your video.

Wow. At first I was thinking it would be a lot cheaper to just sell Alaska and buy a new bike, but by being so involved in a complete rebuild with two dedicated and talented technicians, adding all the higher quality aftermarket parts, and a fantastic decaling job, you have made Alaska something special and far beyond what a new bike would be. Great job, and I look forward to your next adventures.

I am looking forward to seeing your next adventures and how much Alaska has improved with her new upgrades. I am also glad to see you are becoming a mechanic.

I love this so much, especially having four Honda motorcycles myself! I have watched your journey all the way through Alaska and through your most current travels in Africa! Extremely inspiring!

You've been spotted ! Alaska looks great in his new graphics. Enjoy your stay.

Great vlog Noraly, I can't wait to see where your adventures will be next. Stay safe 🙏

I have absolutely loved watching your adventures in season 6 Noraly. You have made me feel like I am there again and that I will return one day for a motorcycle adventure of my own. 😊 Thank you for putting out such uplifting and positive content.

What a beautiful picture of your newly refreshed bike!

Great technician, full attention to details, using torque wrench, verifying every step of the process, simple explanations but totally understandable, congratulations.

Alaska is absolutely beautiful!! I know she will treat you as well as you treat her. Congratulations on the close of Season 6 and now....let the adventure begin anew!!! 🙂

Alaska looks amazing! Great job on the upgrades!

Noraly you had one of the best rally teacher in california. Just got the news from masen klein. First after the 2.stage in the big dakar rallye. All the best for you in 2023 from switzerland. Peter

Wow wow wow you are a massive inspiration. I stumbled on one of your videos and am now captivated by them and are currently sat watching them back to back I have shared them with some of my biking friends. I served in the military for 24 years I have parachuted, dived, skied and seen what I thought was a lot of the world but following you has made me think , I have infact seen little. Your personality and smile make the video worth watching alone. Please keep up the good work.

Totally enjoyed the Alaska season I’ve been subscribed since the early days and consider this the best adventure. Looking forward to your next travels please take the opportunity to rest up if you can, take care and safe travels.
