Noraly! The journey the started from india in 2018 by an amateur motovloger with a dream of traveling the world on a bike with not much money but pockets full of ambition has came back to india after almost 5 years as one of the greatest motovloger/ travelvlogger of all time if not the greatest, riding all across the globe with the same smile on her face as when she first started....hatsoff miss Noraly 🙏
This is the kind of review of the new Himmy I wanted, it's about the ride in context not just the bike if that makes sense? It looks a complete departure from the RE heritage. I had kinda hoped they might just have pushed the single pot to 500cc and kept it air cooled. You look so happy back where it all started looking forward to the next episode 😊
@har3189 hnji pr Modi k time pr bahut improve hua h Pehle nange nhi ghumte the pr facilities kam bahut kam thi roads ache nhi the ab dekho Raga khud bike leke ghuma hai Aur Modi k development ka prachar kiya hai
I don’t see any other rider more deserving than you to ride the new Himalayan. There are only two people who took Himalayan beyond the boundaries of India , one the Royal Enfield themselves and the other is you Noraly. India always welcomes you … have a safe ride..
The reason I got one is because of her channel. Never would I have thought that a $4999 adventure motorcycle would be so tough and reliable until I saw her videos. Cant imagine how many other people bought because of her.
Absolutely smart move their new bike will get so many buyers after seeing Noraly put it through its paces. I am impressed that it purrs like a kitten and rides like a dream. Starts every time love it. Hubby had bikes over the years and eve the new ones l recall he had to really put his back into kick starting it which turned me off bike's altogether. I am very small l ,new l could never start one if l had to fight to get it started every time. His pricey Harley was the same and to dam noisy l hated it.
Dear Noraly, You have done a lot for Royal Enfield and India. I am glad that RE is finally acknowledging it and expressing its gratitude. Indians like us are expressing our gratitude in silence 🙏🇮🇳🇳🇱
Me for one. I sold my Gold Wing several years ago, got old somewhere along the way, and now I am ready once again to go riding. I looked at the 2023 RE Hiimalayas, done some research and decided that I was waiting for the new one. I am in midwestern United States and am chomping at the bit for the new model to get here! This is the first one that I have saw in the wild. Great looking machine.
@@joeblow1934 I sold my 77 Goldwing, GL 1000 touring set up and moved from Southern Maryland to Colombia SA. In the Andes I was really missing having a touring capable bike that had the power for the mountains. I finally bought a 2021 Himalayan with full luggage and crash bars. My wife and I love the bike. It does everything the GL 1000 did, only a little slower, but 81 mpg fully loaded with two which is a huge improvement over 37mpg. It is really fun and with lots of torque on the back roads but it is lacking on the highway. And my bike like many, has issues with stalling at idle. I do like the low rpm torque, and am wondering how the new Himmy would handle the 45 degree inclined mountain roads around here. I have seen V-Strom 650's struggling up some of the inclines that my long stroke just thumps up with no effort with two riders and a full load. I am guessing that the new version will be more aimed at street riding like the V-Strom. Probably much better suited for US riding, so you are much better off waiting and trying the 2023 and 2024. Myself, I am thinking of getting a Super Meteor 650 and setting it up with luggage and windshield for the highway rides.
They must have changed the gearing to make it feel "twice as powerful", 411cc engine still rated at a pathetic 24.3 horsepower, which is just UNDER my CRF250L. R.E. could easily double their sales if they brought the bike into this millennia.
RE has done the best job by giving you the honour to ride the model in the pre delivery phase, that shows how much you mean to the brand,ride safe and have a happy stay, much love!
This is a bit of an emotional "deja vu" for me. i am 68. My great grandparents on both my parents' side came from India as Indentured labourers to work on the cocoa and sugar plantations on this Caribbean island where I live. I have seen every video that Noraly has produced, from S1 onwards. To see her back in India at the Genesis of her recorded adventures is somewhat nostalgic and touching. I know she has had some heartwarming exchanges with Eastern people during her travels. And now to be on another Royal Enfield tops up the cake. I hope she has a flawless adventure with Basant2. Just earlier this week I reviewed some videos of S1 and was enjoying the sound of Basanti, much deeper than that of Alaska ! I hope the RE company gives you the recognition you deserve ! All the best Noraly. Regards. Trinidad & Tobago. West Indies
I'm also from Trinidad. To Noraly, i must say , Your camera are our eyes to the world. Be safe and we look forward to seeing the great adventures in store in India.
What a wonderful message to read, Sir, in these troubled times a message of nostalgia and good sentiment. Noraly is truly a wonderful ambassador for peace and understanding.
Thank you for sharing your family story and your thoughts on Noraly’s adventures. I too have watched all her episodes since the beginning and I feel like I know her! I hope Noraly has a great time in India.
Indentured labour yea, we read that in our history book over here in India. And they mention some names like Chandrapaul, Sarvan etc. We over here really love Windies cricket, hope they will do great again. Love to see roaring fast bowler of windes.
I vividly remember your first vlog with 126 subscribers, riding Basanti. Now, coming back after 5 years, as a more experienced and seasoned vlogger, with an astonishing 1.8 million subscribers, this life of yours couldn't get better than this. Kudos to you!
I remember meeting Noraly high in the himalayas with my good friends from Ireland 🇮🇪. So impressed with her travelling alone then before her UA-cam channel and itchy boots handle.. I never imagined you would become so well known. All your success is well deserved Noraly. Well done 👏
YES! Knew you were riding the new enfield!!! So nice to see the brand have some recognition from one of the best vloggers/influencers of the OG himalayan
I'm glad that Royal Enfield recognized how much of an ambassador you were/are for their brand and let you test the new model. You're journeys been some of the best examples of what the old Himalayan is capable of, and this new one looks way more capable! Take note, Honda!
Almighty God KABIR is the CREATOR OF all SOULS --It was KABER who rose from GRAVE by making form as JESUS to keep faith on GOD . Iyov 36:5 - Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB) See, El is Kabir, and despiseth, not any; He is Kabir in ko’ach lev (strength of understanding). Translation: Supreme God is Kabir, but despises no one. He is Kabir, and firm in his purpose. In all Bible translations, the word Kabir has been translated as "Mighty" or "Great" whereas Kabir is the original name of Supreme God. Conclusion: This verse of the Bible proves that Kabir is Complete God. The one who worships God Kabir by taking initiation from the complete saint sent by him gets complete salvation. After attaining salvation that souls rest in peace in the eternal abode Satlok forever. The throne of God is in Satlok( ETERNAL PLACE) 😊😊 God Kabir met Jesus and took his soul to Satlok. On their way, God Kabir made him see his ancestors David, Moses, Abraham, etc. in the Pitra Lokas. Then God took him to Satlok😊😊 SAINT RAMPALJI MAHARAJ is the present MESSENGER of ALMIGHTY GOD KABIR Any kinds of DISEASES(MENTAL, PHYSCIAL, SPIRITUAL), PARANORMAL ACTIVITY,CURSE,BLACK MAGIC,GHOST is cured by Getting Diksya (mantra ) from SAINT RAMPALJI MAHARAJ..Note: No charge is taken. .one can get MANTRA dikshya from INTERNET😊
BE aware of scam please but you can rent it on websites online for bikes in India But wait for 8 - 9 months let it setttle in the market because its competition is on its way Hero Xpulse 400 is under the making and its going to be somehow more powerful is what I believe.@@ariffnordin4481
As an Indian, even I am fascinated by the diversity and beauty of the landscape. I can well imagine why so many travel vloggers want to travel in India for content. 👏🏽
@@alexshatzko1381 that's why I think star wars is so racist movie....there are 'sand' people in everyplace.... Even white places have them.... You could've just called them locals...anyways the people there are very polite.
As a regular viewer of your content for the past 2 years, you cannot imagine how excited i was to see you visiting my country again! Welcome back to India 🇮🇳 ❤!
That’s exactly what RE needed to do with the Himalayan: modernize it and add a modicum of power (a lot, by Indian market standards, where 200cc bikes are large capacity). The engine seems to have handled the high elevation very well; sounds strong. I hope they also improved some of the components that wore out too easily with Basanti. It’s truly an honor that they allowed you to publicly test the revised bike. Also, the Mosko Moto kit looks great. It seems that the world is on the raw edge right now, and this video, including that tranquil and beautiful landscape, provides very welcome relief.
Ain't nobody terms 200 cc bike a large capacity in India.....bikes in Asia as a whole are seen as economical point A to B travel unlike West where they are more of leisurely things ....you would be surprised to know that most selling capacity in Asia is 110-125 cc
@@DHS562 you just said what he said...anyways "large bike" in india is basically something that makes around 40ish bhp. Pretty much any a2 class is seen as a big bike here.
Actually I like RE for building "old-fashioned" bikes, kind of like Harley Davidson did. The new liquid cooled engine looks like any other engine. I miss the tall cylinder and the cooling fins! But I also know that long-stroke engines with carburators are a thing of the past.
@davidkettell6236 your power of comprehension is visible.stay away from making any conjecture. India will be the third largest economy of the world by 2027. I guess you should just oil your own machine, mate.
@@davidkettell6236 we have 1.4 billion population, currently 35 million live outside in all over the world, that doesn't mean majority are leaving,, our country is growing economically
Noraly riding at 17,982 feet. The highest point in Australia is 7,309 not even halfway there. I've been a subscriber since Nov 2018 & I am just more impressed every day.
You are not even Indian, but it feels like you are back home. 😂 Welcome back, I hope you have a great trip with the new Himalayan. Looking forward to seeing you explore the entire Landscape of India from North to South, East to West. Love watching your videos 😍 🧘♂️🙏
As a regular viewer of your channel I am very happy back in India. I wish you all the best and take care of your hand. By the way India is not sharing border with China, its share its border with Tibet which is occupied by CHINA.
Noraly, this brings back a flood of memories from your early adventures in India with Basanti! I have rewatched a lot of those episodes while you were on break. I’m glad you are back riding again. Royal Enfield is to be celebrated for providing this new pre-production Himalayan. Ride safe and have fun!
Love from India and thanks for exploring our country. There may be beautiful countries in the World but there is no other country which is more magical than India ❤❤
You sounded so genuinely happy to be back in the saddle - on a new bike - in a country you so obviously love. Travel safe, travel well - its great to see you back doing what you love. Now we can have a daily dose of your life once again. You kept me sane throughout lock-downs and brought cheer and a smile at your achievements. Ride with the wind - be at one with it...
RE finally used their brain after seeing how much influence you gave your viewers with Basanti and Dhanno. Congratulations! You should be Royal Enfield's Ambassador! By the way, where is Basanti now?
Never thought that your come back would be this AMAZING 😊... From the pre-prod Himalayan bike to the serene, beautiful mountain ride and turquoise colored river... All was so breathtaking. And most of all, we are all happy to see you again, hand healed and continuously recovering. You were missed a great deal Noraly but welcome back🎉
What an amazing experience riding the pre production bike. It looks very smart. You’re clearly the best person to be testing and riding this. Hopefully Royal Enfield will endorse you and give you one! Another superb video x
😂😂😂 The kids at the end and their Hindi accent was so cute. Also, this brought back memories from the past when I saw your initial videos and subscribed. So happy for your journey in life ❤🇮🇳
Noraly hits 17,982 feet elevation on a motorcycle without batting an eye! And neither does the bike! Aircraft need to pressurize cabin around the level. I've been to 14k and for a flatlander that was pretty tough doing anything but a slow walk. Thank you for the narrative /education of the area Noraly. Peace ❤❤❤
VERY GLAD to see you back in the saddle Nora !!! LOVE the exotic locals you get to visit, the colors, people, food, customs, and natural beauty of it all. MANY THANX, and happy, continued, bon voyage !!!
Many years ago I rode an Enfield Bullet up to Kahdung La. The 'road' was diabolical, there were many crumpled trucks and cars down the bottom of the ravines and the traffic was terrifying. I have never forgotten that ride and I thank you for bringing it all back to me. The improvements to the road are astounding but the challenge is still there. Good on you!!
Wow wow wow what a Biiiggg Surprise, so happy to see you riding back in India. Imagine you are the first motovlogger to ride and make videos on Royal enfield himalayan 452. Thanks to RE for inviting the right person to ride this machine. Credit goes to her for promoting Himalayan in her previous days. Welcome to India
Going back memory lane I used to ride a RE in my younger days but it was a far cry from the one you have. I and my daugter who is a Cardiologist in the US find time to watch your journeys and I have learnt a lot of Geopraphy from your travels. May the travel bug be with you always!!!!!
I have always found India fascinating ... Mostly because the people I have met from India are so gracious and friendly . India is also an incredible source of ancient history much like Egypt . I hope you bring that out in your videos . As always you seem to be a more truthful source of current news ...especially western news . Happy trails PK
Some parts are beaitiful, otherwise if you move to cities these are horrible nasty. Without proper drainage, Filty water and unhygenic poor states Migrants making cities crowdy and spitting Pan Masala on public places. 😢
@@LOVE5JAB its cuz the cities were mismanaged by the previous government. Thank god they got elected out. We have to much to develop still in cities but the countryside which is the TRUE India is beautiful and hospitable. This is coming from a person who has lived in small villages and towns for the major part of my childhood.
All royal enfield are tested here... It's not just himalayan.. Even their 350 work fine at such heights and riders in India use classic 350 for adventure in Leh Ladakh/kashmir... Reason is pretty simple... All Indian car/bikes are tested here before launching... Without getting tested in such heights no made in India products are sold...
Naturally aspirated engines will obviously perform at their best power at sea level, but the rarified air at high altitude will obviously mean % lower maximum horse power, but should still run fairly smoothly.
Back where it all started Noraly! And in such a poetic way, going back as a seasoned rider! and look, once you had no followers but a dream, now an army is "riding" with you along this dream!
I experience an overwhelming sense of goodness with the world every time I watch your stunning work. Thanks for doing, in your simple way, an important part of bringing the world together. Thanks from the bottom of my heart.
I started watching Noraly's vlogs literally from the first episode when she rode the outgoing himalayan 5 years ago and now she is testing the pre production version of the new himalayan. It sure is as she says life has come full circle. Amazing to be a fan of Noraly and Royal Enfield. Love you guys Say whatever you want but Royal Enfield sure knows how to market their product.
I appreciate Noraly’s comment about “naked mountains” and being able to see the geology. I recently traveled to Virginia, West Virginia, and Tennessee USA to see the fall foliage. Although the colors are amazing, I also prefer the “naked mountains” of the west. I had never heard that expression before…Thanks Noraly!!
Geologists refer to the grass as “hairing it over.” Geologists don’t like it, as they want to see the layers. It’s not just appearance in the eastern U.S. The higher rainfall will erode rock cuts faster and wash gravel and such down onto the road if there is no grass.
Welcome to India..Really surprised to see those internal village roads from your vlog.. even our Indian motovlogers start at hotel balcony and end at hotel balcony ( motovloging in between). Your approach towards people and places is unique. That’s why your content is different and superior from other influencers.
I can't tell you how good it is to see you back on the road again, and away from rally driving. Your great strength is on these long tours. Its your natural element. The scenery on this ride is spectacular. That road is well maintained, because its a sensitive border area, with police and army checkpoints. Be a bit cautious about flying that drone. I'm so glad your hand healed up well, Noraly. I look forward to more Himalayan riding.
I'm just imagining that how lucky you would have been to get a pre production highly anticipated model from Royal Enfield. Original Himalayan is my favourite but getting a successor to the same is immense proud moment as I'm an Indian and an Automotive enthusiast too ❤😊🇮🇳
Hello ma’am. Your video bought back memories of my experiences in Ladakh. My uncle was a deputy commander of the XIV corps. Had the opportunity to travel to Ladakh thrice. It’s a stunning place. We welcome all foreigners to come visit India. Atithi Devo Bhava. 🙏🏼
Kiddo's to Royal Enfield for getting Itchyboots on board for the launch the OG ❤❤❤ you guys earned my respect 🙌.. I always wanted you guys to collaborate with her, I mean this is amazing👍👍
Welcome to India once again Noraly. Nothing like riding through the rider's paradise, and your vivid drone shots make the spectacular scenery more spectacular.
Ah là là, Borély! 😊 Tellement d'énergie, bravo. Bon voyage avec ta nouvelle monture. J'étais à Ley au Laddak en 1972, avec ma Land Rover. Route 1ere fous ouverte aux non- militaires ! Super souvenir ! Mes meilleures pensées du Cambodge. Mike
Hey Itchy Boots ! Welcome back to the channel! It must be heart warming to return and visit these special places. I know India has a special place in your heart and so does RE Himaleyan. Of course you can’t conceal your excitement in your face, your smile, your voice! That is the joy that we feel just watching you! Really enjoyed the spectacular landscapes and awesome cinematography! What a quaint and peaceful village you stayed at! Thanks for sharing and stay safe! We want to see more of this!! Cheers from Texas USA❤❤
Looks like RE figured out more than the tech specs! Great to see you have this level of their awareness, you certainly have earned their respect. People out here is actuality land actually care what you have to say about things. What fun to see all of it: India, the ride, the bike and you’re recovery!!! Yay.
You are physically blessed You don't get sickness of high attitudes and seeing you riding on the world's highest road's in India without help of oxygen. Stay strong and keep riding 💪 ❤
They approached you because they know that you are the only hard core rider to use the full potential of royal enfield Himalayan and you have promoted their bike before.. You are the true brand ambassador of indian tourism and of this bike. Keep it up ma'am
Amazing Noraly, can't believe 5 years already. I been watching and loving your videos since day one. Nice to see Royal Enfield showing you some love with new Himalayan. Think you were a big part of their success with it. Even when your channel was new I went to Royal Enfield dealer in Southern Ontario Canada. They knew about Itchy Boots from customers telling then they are why they went to dealer to look at Himalayan. Itchy Boots back to her roots, and I am so happy to have found your channel back then. And I always remember to Give a Big Thumbs Up. So off we go again with you.......... So we want to hear it!......... "LETs GO" Ride safe and Cheers from Canada.
Hey Noraly! It's great to have you back in India. Full circle indeed! I love the fact that the first proper visuals of the bike up close are actually coming to use form you rather than Royal Enfield itself. It's lovely knowing that you've built such a strong community around the work you do, to be given a pre-production bike to ride around the Himalayas. All the best, and I hope you recover soon!
Africa worried me. I know the continent quite well, having lived there for many years. I would not ride a motorbike down the west side of the continent. Incredibly brave and quite dangerous. On the other hand, the east side is less dangerous (provided you do your homework). India, much more predictable and considerably safer. So pleased to be 'joining you' on your next adventure! Look forward to the episodes! Stay safe!
Don't say that As an Indian who have visited African Continent I won't call it dangerous as people say...trust me I have felt more Scared in Some Parts of Europe than in certain parts of Africa... But Gonna Admit the Riding across West Coast was Comparetively bit difficult than east because of the Local authorities for some reason appered to be more rigid....People more or less had same behavior ( I mean more Curious - to see what an Indian Is Doing here other than Business).
apart of europe ,australia,Japan,korea. India is as safe as any you could get and very safe for a developing country in terms of crime and homicide rates
@@VARMOT123India has lesser crime & as you said homicide rate (per capita) than all those countries you've mentioned apart from maybe Japan, probably? It's pretty obvious in this series
They say that you never forget your first love, in this case your first trip to India in 2018 on a Royal Enfield. After 5 years you have returned for a new adventure, the parent company Royal Enfield entrusts you with a motorbike that must be released on the market. My respect for a motovloger / travelvlogger always looking for new adventures, always smiling. Respect, simply respect for what you do and what you will do in the future.
I real wasn’t expecting this return to India especially after you broke your hand. I thought you’d take an easier journey thru a range in Europe, but that obviously has never been your style. Even though I’m somewhere in the USA let me say WELCOME TO INDIA 🇮🇳
It is amazing to see these landscapes and huge valleys. It makes me realise how temporary the human species actually is, and how insignificant we are to the big picture and the future of this planet. Whilst I have not had a great deal of interest in motorcycles, the Royal Enfield is something special. I thank you again Noraly for bringing these images to us.
Thanks for travelling to India, and roaming with an Made in India bike, Royal Enfield Himalayan, which is my favourite,the way you have traveled, and showed us beautiful pics, proves that you love my country and enjoying it's hospitality,... You are most welcome 🇮🇳❤️

See, El is Kabir, and despiseth, not any; He is Kabir in ko’ach lev (strength of understanding).
Translation: Supreme God is Kabir, but despises no one. He is Kabir, and firm in his purpose.
In all Bible translations, the word Kabir has been translated as "Mighty" or "Great" whereas Kabir is the original name of Supreme God.
Conclusion: This verse of the Bible proves that Kabir is Complete God. The one who worships God Kabir by taking initiation from the complete saint sent by him gets complete salvation. After attaining salvation that souls rest in peace in the eternal abode Satlok forever. The throne of God is in Satlok( ETERNAL PLACE) 😊😊
God Kabir met Jesus and took his soul to Satlok. On their way, God Kabir made him see his ancestors David, Moses, Abraham, etc. in the Pitra Lokas. Then God took him to Satlok😊😊
SAINT RAMPALJI MAHARAJ is the present MESSENGER of ALMIGHTY GOD KABIR
Any kinds of DISEASES(MENTAL, PHYSCIAL, SPIRITUAL), PARANORMAL ACTIVITY,CURSE,BLACK MAGIC,GHOST is cured by Getting Diksya (mantra ) from SAINT RAMPALJI MAHARAJ..Note: No charge is taken. .one can get MANTRA dikshya from INTERNET😊
Wondering where can I rent a this kind of bike in India? Hopefully I can use it for my travel vlog 🙏
I guess there is no one on earth who knows the Himalayan better than her :))
BE aware of scam please but you can rent it on websites online for bikes in India But wait for 8 - 9 months let it setttle in the market because its competition is on its way Hero Xpulse 400 is under the making and its going to be somehow more powerful is what I believe.@@ariffnordin4481
As an Indian, even I am fascinated by the diversity and beauty of the landscape. I can well imagine why so many travel vloggers want to travel in India for content. 👏🏽
It’s not just travel vloggers that love your country, I fell in love with India on my first trip.
@@alexshatzko1381 that's why I think star wars is so racist movie....there are 'sand' people in everyplace.... Even white places have them.... You could've just called them locals...anyways the people there are very polite.
Good point but I think the commentary above was full of ingenuity .
Wow beautiful country and those little angels ❤️ later 😎🇺🇸
As a regular viewer of your content for the past 2 years, you cannot imagine how excited i was to see you visiting my country again! Welcome back to India 🇮🇳 ❤!
O povo da Índia é incrivel!!! O/
@@dudubuds1 Obrigado !!🥰
That’s exactly what RE needed to do with the Himalayan: modernize it and add a modicum of power (a lot, by Indian market standards, where 200cc bikes are large capacity). The engine seems to have handled the high elevation very well; sounds strong. I hope they also improved some of the components that wore out too easily with Basanti. It’s truly an honor that they allowed you to publicly test the revised bike. Also, the Mosko Moto kit looks great. It seems that the world is on the raw edge right now, and this video, including that tranquil and beautiful landscape, provides very welcome relief.
Ain't nobody terms 200 cc bike a large capacity in India.....bikes in Asia as a whole are seen as economical point A to B travel unlike West where they are more of leisurely things ....you would be surprised to know that most selling capacity in Asia is 110-125 cc
@@DHS562just a basic need and for practicality.
@@DHS562 you just said what he said...anyways "large bike" in india is basically something that makes around 40ish bhp. Pretty much any a2 class is seen as a big bike here.
Actually I like RE for building "old-fashioned" bikes, kind of like Harley Davidson did.
The new liquid cooled engine looks like any other engine.
I miss the tall cylinder and the cooling fins!
But I also know that long-stroke engines with carburators are a thing of the past.
@@pranavp386 that's just not true! lol
Not many things put a smile on my face, but seeing you are ok and back on the wheels has made my day.
Safe travels
This country is an earthly paradise. Thank you for sharing this with us.❤
That must be why all the Indian population want to leave ?
@davidkettell6236 your power of comprehension is visible.stay away from making any conjecture. India will be the third largest economy of the world by 2027. I guess you should just oil your own machine, mate.
@@davidkettell6236 who put this shit in your mind 😅😅
@@davidkettell6236 we have 1.4 billion population, currently 35 million live outside in all over the world, that doesn't mean majority are leaving,, our country is growing economically

Turtuk, and the locals are utterly charming! Thank you for the vivid scenery footage too! Beautiful India 🙏🏻
Noraly riding at 17,982 feet. The highest point in Australia is 7,309 not even halfway there. I've been a subscriber since Nov 2018 & I am just more impressed every day.
You are not even Indian, but it feels like you are back home. 😂 Welcome back, I hope you have a great trip with the new Himalayan. Looking forward to seeing you explore the entire Landscape of India from North to South, East to West. Love watching your videos 😍 🧘♂️🙏
As a regular viewer of your channel I am very happy back in India. I wish you all the best and take care of your hand. By the way India is not sharing border with China, its share its border with Tibet which is occupied by CHINA.
In indian state of arunachal Pradesh.. India sagres broader with China.
Free Tibet ❤🫂
The Queen of Adventure motorcycling to officially ride the New Himalayan, what an honor and masterstroke by RE.
So nice to see you back. India looks charming and the people friendly. Good luck on your new adventures.
Noraly, this brings back a flood of memories from your early adventures in India with Basanti! I have rewatched a lot of those episodes while you were on break. I’m glad you are back riding again. Royal Enfield is to be celebrated for providing this new pre-production Himalayan. Ride safe and have fun!
Love from India and thanks for exploring our country. There may be beautiful countries in the World but there is no other country which is more magical than India ❤❤
OMG the dreamlike quality of the place: the vastness, the starkness, the few contrasting colors.. so enchanting. TU!
You sounded so genuinely happy to be back in the saddle - on a new bike - in a country you so obviously love.
Travel safe, travel well - its great to see you back doing what you love.
Now we can have a daily dose of your life once again.
You kept me sane throughout lock-downs and brought cheer and a smile at your achievements.
Ride with the wind - be at one with it...
Noraly also looked well rested and ready for another adventure.
Saudações do Brasil aos irmãos da Índia !
Essa nova Royal Enfield é formidável.
வணக்கம் வெற்றி சகோதரிக்கு.மீண்டும் வெற்றி.பிரேசில் வெற்றி ❤❤
Love from 🇮🇳india too for brazil❤
ബ്രസീൽ വളരെ മനോഹരമായ രാജ്യമാണ്.❤
Namaste 🙏 from India 🇮🇳
Saudações para você também irmão! Graças ao Google Tradutor podemos entender você e vice-versa!
RE finally used their brain after seeing how much influence you gave your viewers with Basanti and Dhanno. Congratulations!
You should be Royal Enfield's Ambassador!
By the way, where is Basanti now?
Finally used their brain? Funny man😢
As a 2016 Himalayan owner , I am happy RE has chosen Noraly to test their new version extensively ! well deserved Noraly!
Never thought that your come back would be this AMAZING 😊... From the pre-prod Himalayan bike to the serene, beautiful mountain ride and turquoise colored river... All was so breathtaking.
And most of all, we are all happy to see you again, hand healed and continuously recovering.
You were missed a great deal Noraly but welcome back🎉
What an amazing experience riding the pre production bike. It looks very smart. You’re clearly the best person to be testing and riding this. Hopefully Royal Enfield will endorse you and give you one! Another superb video x
😂😂😂 The kids at the end and their Hindi accent was so cute. Also, this brought back memories from the past when I saw your initial videos and subscribed. So happy for your journey in life ❤🇮🇳
Noraly hits 17,982 feet elevation on a motorcycle without batting an eye! And neither does the bike! Aircraft need to pressurize cabin around the level. I've been to 14k and for a flatlander that was pretty tough doing anything but a slow walk. Thank you for the narrative /education of the area Noraly. Peace ❤❤❤
It's pretty common in India for lot of motorcycle enthusiasts to go into Himalayas.
Amazing nature and an amazing person guiding me thru northern India. Thanks and greetings from Thailand
Noraly never ceases to beguile and amaze. Her mission to take the fear out of international travel is always tangible.
Just add Same Words for me too of this comment. kudos to her..😍
VERY GLAD to see you back in the saddle Nora !!! LOVE the exotic locals you get to visit, the colors, people, food, customs, and natural beauty of it all. MANY THANX, and happy, continued, bon voyage !!!
Many years ago I rode an Enfield Bullet up to Kahdung La. The 'road' was diabolical, there were many crumpled trucks and cars down the bottom of the ravines and the traffic was terrifying. I have never forgotten that ride and I thank you for bringing it all back to me. The improvements to the road are astounding but the challenge is still there. Good on you!!
Same here mate, back in 2008. Really would love to do again. Roads look so much better
Now the roads are very nice compare to old ...yrs back
Now the roads and expressways are far better than any other Asian nations. Come back soon bro.
Roads are comparatively better, but still unpredictable due to landslides. Leh Ladak ride is a ride of passage for Indian riders.
India is now focusing on its Infrastructure much better, still a long way to go but you will see the improvements as India develops.
So finally, the RE guys have decided to collaborate with you. Hope this proves to be beneficial for the both of you. It's been a long time coming.
Wow wow wow what a Biiiggg Surprise, so happy to see you riding back in India. Imagine you are the first motovlogger to ride and make videos on Royal enfield himalayan 452. Thanks to RE for inviting the right person to ride this machine. Credit goes to her for promoting Himalayan in her previous days. Welcome to India
Already the countryside of India makes for a welcome change from the continual forest of West Africa. A feast for the eyes.
Going back memory lane I used to ride a RE in my younger days but it was a far cry from the one you have. I and my daugter who is a Cardiologist in the US find time to watch your journeys and I have learnt a lot of Geopraphy from your travels. May the travel bug be with you always!!!!!
What an honor for you from Royal Enfield! ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉
Royal Enfield trust in the right person,Noraly to show their new prototype bike ❤. Its so cool!
Beautiful, unreal world- like “riding through a painting “. Welcome back to Ladakh, Bharat.
I have always found India fascinating ... Mostly because the people I have met from India are so gracious and friendly . India is also an incredible source of ancient history much like Egypt . I hope you bring that out in your videos . As always you seem to be a more truthful source of current news ...especially western news . Happy trails PK
India is heavenly beautiful ❤
Some parts are beaitiful, otherwise if you move to cities these are horrible nasty. Without proper drainage, Filty water and unhygenic poor states Migrants making cities crowdy and spitting Pan Masala on public places. 😢
@@LOVE5JAB you're probably defining the state of your own house it seems!
@@LOVE5JAB its cuz the cities were mismanaged by the previous government. Thank god they got elected out.
We have to much to develop still in cities but the countryside which is the TRUE India is beautiful and hospitable. This is coming from a person who has lived in small villages and towns for the major part of my childhood.
@@LOVE5JABIt's take time to change bro
60 year lack of development now just give 20 year to Modi you see changes in border area's.
@@LOVE5JAB corrupted government employees and politicians are major reason of development 😡
I am amazed that the new Himalayan ran well at high altitude - almost 18,000 feet. Nice to know how reliable the bike is.
All royal enfield are tested here... It's not just himalayan.. Even their 350 work fine at such heights and riders in India use classic 350 for adventure in Leh Ladakh/kashmir...
Reason is pretty simple... All Indian car/bikes are tested here before launching... Without getting tested in such heights no made in India products are sold...
tuning a fuel injected bike isn't hard in this day n age lol.
Built for local people to use and enjoy in this exact type of environment 👍
Naturally aspirated engines will obviously perform at their best power at sea level, but the rarified air at high altitude will obviously mean % lower maximum horse power, but should still run fairly smoothly.
The name justifies it right, else they would have named it Ganga😂😂
Those two kid showing up the way stole my heart❤❤. I smiled from the inside of my heart 😊😊
Back where it all started Noraly! And in such a poetic way, going back as a seasoned rider! and look, once you had no followers but a dream, now an army is "riding" with you along this dream!
I experience an overwhelming sense of goodness with the world every time I watch your stunning work. Thanks for doing, in your simple way, an important part of bringing the world together. Thanks from the bottom of my heart.
❤ beautifully said
“Looks like i just rode into the painting “. Beautifully said. Thank you for sharing your wonderful journeys.
India is a beautiful country.
I started watching Noraly's vlogs literally from the first episode when she rode the outgoing himalayan 5 years ago and now she is testing the pre production version of the new himalayan. It sure is as she says life has come full circle. Amazing to be a fan of Noraly and Royal Enfield. Love you guys
Say whatever you want but Royal Enfield sure knows how to market their product.
I appreciate Noraly’s comment about “naked mountains” and being able to see the geology. I recently traveled to Virginia, West Virginia, and Tennessee USA to see the fall foliage. Although the colors are amazing, I also prefer the “naked mountains” of the west. I had never heard that expression before…Thanks Noraly!!
Geologists refer to the grass as “hairing it over.” Geologists don’t like it, as they want to see the layers. It’s not just appearance in the eastern U.S. The higher rainfall will erode rock cuts faster and wash gravel and such down onto the road if there is no grass.
That's INCREDIBLE INDIA and an INCREDIBLE RIDER!
Yes! This is my India. And I am proud of my country.
Норали,разреши выразить свой восторг и уважение!Потрясён всеми видео.СПАСИБО!Удачи,здоровья.
Welcome to India..Really surprised to see those internal village roads from your vlog.. even our Indian motovlogers start at hotel balcony and end at hotel balcony ( motovloging in between). Your approach towards people and places is unique. That’s why your content is different and superior from other influencers.
It’s so much fun to see the world through Noraly’s eyes. So much joy! It’s just infectious! Pure magic! 😃😃😃
Sooo impressed with your independence and confidence, you have made me think that I should do at least one trip before I’m too old
You are the first one to showcase this bike in the media.... So RE has done something very different....👍👍👍
It’s so great having you back! Nobody does it better than you.
I can't tell you how good it is to see you back on the road again, and away from rally
driving. Your great strength is on these long tours. Its your natural element.
The scenery on this ride is spectacular. That road is well maintained, because its
a sensitive border area, with police and army checkpoints. Be a bit cautious about
flying that drone. I'm so glad your hand healed up well, Noraly. I look forward to more
Himalayan riding.
I'm just imagining that how lucky you would have been to get a pre production highly anticipated model from Royal Enfield. Original Himalayan is my favourite but getting a successor to the same is immense proud moment as I'm an Indian and an Automotive enthusiast too ❤😊🇮🇳
Actually Royal Enfield is lucky to have Noraly to test their bike.
@@L_MAO_ oo really 🤩 see you soon Noraly ✌️
Hello ma’am. Your video bought back memories of my experiences in Ladakh. My uncle was a deputy commander of the XIV corps. Had the opportunity to travel to Ladakh thrice. It’s a stunning place. We welcome all foreigners to come visit India. Atithi Devo Bhava. 🙏🏼
Kiddo's to Royal Enfield for getting Itchyboots on board for the launch the OG ❤❤❤ you guys earned my respect 🙌.. I always wanted you guys to collaborate with her, I mean this is amazing👍👍
Noraly's adventures on her Himalayan made me want one. So last year I did, and now have almost 21,000 miles on it! ❤
Os marmajos aqui do Brasil já estariam chorando nesse offroad , ela passa como se não fosse nada..👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Welcome to India once again Noraly. Nothing like riding through the rider's paradise, and your vivid drone shots make the spectacular scenery more spectacular.
Ah là là, Borély! 😊 Tellement d'énergie, bravo.
Bon voyage avec ta nouvelle monture.
J'étais à Ley au Laddak en 1972, avec ma Land Rover. Route 1ere fous ouverte aux non- militaires !
Super souvenir !
Mes meilleures pensées du Cambodge. Mike
Hey Itchy Boots ! Welcome back to the channel! It must be heart warming to return and visit these special places. I know India has a special place in your heart and so does RE Himaleyan. Of course you can’t conceal your excitement in your face, your smile, your voice! That is the joy that we feel just watching you! Really enjoyed the spectacular landscapes and awesome cinematography! What a quaint and peaceful village you stayed at! Thanks for sharing and stay safe! We want to see more of this!! Cheers from Texas USA❤❤
The world needs more people like you 😊It is such a breath of fresh air watching all the content you have been putting out. More power to you!
Looks like RE figured out more than the tech specs! Great to see you have this level of their awareness, you certainly have earned their respect. People out here is actuality land actually care what you have to say about things. What fun to see all of it: India, the ride, the bike and you’re recovery!!! Yay.
Everyone is excited about this motorcycle in India and now this being ridden by our fav moto vlogger makes it even more special. Love from India.
You are physically blessed You don't get sickness of high attitudes and seeing you riding on the world's highest road's in India without help of oxygen. Stay strong and keep riding 💪 ❤
What sweet little girls. Their little voices so full of excitement.
They approached you because they know that you are the only hard core rider to use the full potential of royal enfield Himalayan and you have promoted their bike before.. You are the true brand ambassador of indian tourism and of this bike. Keep it up ma'am
I was just in Leh Ladakh two weeks ago. Thank you for making me revisit the awesome memories.
Ladhak is literally biker's paradise!!!
Amazing Noraly, can't believe 5 years already. I been watching and loving your videos since day one. Nice to see Royal Enfield showing you some love with new Himalayan. Think you were a big part of their success with it. Even when your channel was new I went to Royal Enfield dealer in Southern Ontario Canada. They knew about Itchy Boots from customers telling then they are why they went to dealer to look at Himalayan. Itchy Boots back to her roots, and I am so happy to have found your channel back then. And I always remember to Give a Big Thumbs Up. So off we go again with you.......... So we want to hear it!......... "LETs GO" Ride safe and Cheers from Canada.
Leh ladakh is best place for motorcycle riders in the world, beauty will call you again and again ❤️
Hey Noraly! It's great to have you back in India. Full circle indeed! I love the fact that the first proper visuals of the bike up close are actually coming to use form you rather than Royal Enfield itself. It's lovely knowing that you've built such a strong community around the work you do, to be given a pre-production bike to ride around the Himalayas. All the best, and I hope you recover soon!
Olá Noraly! Que belo trabalho a Royal Enfield fez na nova Himalayan 452. Brasil aguarda a chegada.
O foda que esses arrombados vão meter a faca no preço
❤
IND ❤
Wow! I am blown away by the beauty. Thank you for taking us on the journey (and all other ones too)!!
Aboslutely amaizing! It almost feels like meeting an old friend that you have not seen for 5 years... 🙂
Finally RE has given you the recognition you deaerve...you singlehandedly made their brand more popular in the global arena.
Africa worried me. I know the continent quite well, having lived there for many years. I would not ride a motorbike down the west side of the continent. Incredibly brave and quite dangerous. On the other hand, the east side is less dangerous (provided you do your homework). India, much more predictable and considerably safer. So pleased to be 'joining you' on your next adventure! Look forward to the episodes! Stay safe!
Don't say that As an Indian who have visited African Continent I won't call it dangerous as people say...trust me I have felt more Scared in Some Parts of Europe than in certain parts of Africa...
But Gonna Admit the Riding across West Coast was Comparetively bit difficult than east because of the Local authorities for some reason appered to be more rigid....People more or less had same behavior ( I mean more Curious - to see what an Indian Is Doing here other than Business).
apart of europe ,australia,Japan,korea. India is as safe as any you could get and very safe for a developing country in terms of crime and homicide rates
@@VARMOT123India has lesser crime & as you said homicide rate (per capita) than all those countries you've mentioned apart from maybe Japan, probably? It's pretty obvious in this series
where have you felt unsafe in Europe ?
@@arpanabinaswar1811
Not dangerous at all. Thousands of people do it by bike every year.
They say that you never forget your first love, in this case your first trip to India in 2018 on a Royal Enfield. After 5 years you have returned for a new adventure, the parent company Royal Enfield entrusts you with a motorbike that must be released on the market. My respect for a motovloger / travelvlogger always looking for new adventures, always smiling. Respect, simply respect for what you do and what you will do in the future.
that was me in 2012 also on Royal Enfield with three other women. i just was told about you today and I am your new big fan. You are very inspiring.
I real wasn’t expecting this return to India especially after you broke your hand. I thought you’d take an easier journey thru a range in Europe, but that obviously has never been your style. Even though I’m somewhere in the USA let me say WELCOME TO INDIA 🇮🇳
You are so relaxed riding on those high mountains twisting narrow roads with a cliff one meter away. I’m amazed
It is amazing to see these landscapes and huge valleys. It makes me realise how temporary the human species actually is, and how insignificant we are to the big picture and the future of this planet. Whilst I have not had a great deal of interest in motorcycles, the Royal Enfield is something special. I thank you again Noraly for bringing these images to us.
Thanks for travelling to India, and roaming with an Made in India bike, Royal Enfield Himalayan, which is my favourite,the way you have traveled, and showed us beautiful pics, proves that you love my country and enjoying it's hospitality,... You are most welcome 🇮🇳❤️
