Preparing to motorcycle NAMIBIA on my Honda CRF250L [S5 – Eps. 37]
EDITORIAL SUMMARY

About this film
Part of Itchy Boots’ Season 5 journey through Southern Africa, this episode centres on the tasks that come with preparing for travel. A parcel arrives containing a new adventure suit, while a COVID test is another item on the checklist. Attention also turns to Savannah: the bike is washed, its airbox is cleaned, and a replacement chain guard is fitted. The episode’s focus is on preparation rather than covering a new stretch of road, making the maintenance and personal arrangements part of the journey’s story.
The journey
The setting is Springbok, where the rider is getting ready for Namibia. The chain guard replacement has a history: the original was completely destroyed in rocky desert terrain. Alongside that repair, cleaning the airbox and washing the motorcycle bring the bike into the preparations for the next leg. The episode connects these immediate tasks with the wider Southern Africa motorcycle journey, showing a pause in the route devoted to getting ready to ride on.
What to expect
- Pre-Namibia preparations in Springbok, South Africa.
- Cleaning and maintenance for the Honda CRF250L, Savannah.
- A replacement chain guard after damage in rocky desert terrain.
