Looking for advice

I’ve been going down the rabbit hole of which bike I want for my first dual sport. I’m 6’1 and 230 lbs, trying to narrow down a good bike that I won’t feel too cramped on. I’m leaning towards a Honda XR650L, but I figured I’d post on here to get some advice. I’m open to any suggestions!

Solo camping in the Sierra Nevada

Made my first video of a recent solo camping trip to anyone that is interested. Planning to explore as much of the Sierra as I can over the next year and I’ll be documenting the trips as I go. Open to tips or recommendations!

Weird noise

Can anyone help identify this noise? You hear a scratching sound around 5 seconds and it happens intermittently around 20-25 mph. Just had $10k worth of work done on this a month ago through ford where they replaced my hubs, and my front differential with everything with it. I had my IWE system replaced last year, and I’m still hearing noises up front. Took it back to ford and they said they couldn’t find anything.
