Some of these hills you guys climbing seems to be a lot steeper than the footage makes it to be. It's all good fun..., isn't it 🤗 Thumbs up from the Czech Republic 👍
How's that for timing Tom, I just put a deposit down on one yesterday.....my mate has a 2010 800 tiger XC and it is amazing where we have taken that bike, and actually pulls up hills better than a DR 650. The new tiger 800 XCA got better reviews than the African twin and the new GS 850....
Great video, and great content in general Tom, the middleweight adventure bikes are really looking good ! I might even consider getting a tiger as my next bike after watching this, but for now I'm going to stick with my Speed triple, I recently did a 5200km trip to the north cape on it, what a experience I can highly recommend it. Thanks for the great content you are making!
Great video mate! What tires are you rocking? l have the same bike XCA 800 2016, what gear is the best for off-road? l find myself changing the gear too often.
Tom how does moto froggers passing still affect you to the day? I used to watch him in motor cycle complications and other vids. But how are you doing?
Hay Tom! Great vid. In your opinion could this bike have done the SA Desert trip you just did? If so, would you still prefer the WR250 on a trip like that?
Hmmm good question, probably yes or my WR250R. I guess the main take away is that the middle weight adventure market is much more appealing to me now after riding this bike. I’ve very excited for the upcoming ktm 790 adventure and Yamaha tenere 700 now.
Omg i am quite shook is this a con for the tiger? I am starting to like this bike bru Like i shall it on the road and i sit on at a bike show yesterday loved the matte green one That rev you did at the end was sex to my ears tom 2012 R1 or this tiger The traction is really bad although your terrain is crazy haha i wont be doing anything as bad arse as you as i live in the urban jungle singapore but still lit toom cheers love your mate The only thing that sucks is the mirrors i think it's too regit
Non-Tiger related question: your helmet seems to be Shoei Hornet (X2)? Have you been happy with it? I am probably going to need new lid after this riding season and only complaint for Hornet which I have heard is that it can be bit hot. Has that been problem for you (if that ain't problem for someone in Australia, it probably ain't for me here in cold north)?
I love it, super quiet, great visibility, not super super light or crazy ventilation like an mx helmet but I’ve ridden across Death Valley in it just fine
Can you? Yes. Should you? Maybe . Triumph claims it is suited for light off road ( non sealed) only. The fragility of the plastics even without dropping my 2015 model yet at speed indicates to me that keeping the Tiger on good dirt roads is sensible. I have recently replaced cracked plastics ( beak and a few tank area bits) and the bill was $500 plus. My Tiger has been across OZ twice and lots of shorter trips ( Flinders Ranges/ Victorian Alps area) . It is a good touring bike, but I am reluctant to try anything difficult if I am riding solo. Lifting 225Kg is a two man job.
Hey tom, try out this aussie coolant called liquid intelligence, we use it in our wr450f and have not had a single over heating issue since (no thermal fan either)
Just put in pure water if you want best cooling but it's obviously gonna split the engine if it freezes and it's gonna corrode it as well so you should not let it sit with the water in. For racing we fill before and empty the bikes after every day
yeah we could only ride our 2014 450f for about 30 min before needing to stop before you changed it over, now it goes for hours on end. heres a link if you want :) liquidintelligence.com.au/products/motorcycle-super-waterless-coolant
GRIFF2142 Well.. There was another big waterless cooler brand which had such wild claims but it is mostly bogus. To cut it short the main problem with waterless coolant is that is doesn't cool as good as water. Well, really nothing we could use in a bike cools as good as pure water. Sure, these coolants do not boil over but the point of your cooling system is to cool and protect your engine and not to protect itself. Just because your coolant does not boil over does not mean your engine gets enough cooling. Actually the water boiling is at a temperature where your engine is already too hot and the boiling itself removes a lot of heat since energy is needed to convert water into steam. This is sort of a last resort to keep your engine safe since you usually turn it off at that point. Hope this is somewhat understandable
GRIFF2142 And I'm sorry but taking a quick look at that website.. The test with the hotplate they show is bullshit. Throwing a tiny bit of the two liquids at once on a hotplate that is already hot is.. doing whatever. Certainly not testing heat capacity. This is how to do it properly: th-cam.com/video/n51CEMX7nEo/w-d-xo.html The fact that they don't know how to do proper testing or just plainly try to fool customers with this tells me their product is likely overpriced and a heap of crap. From people riding the old "nano technology" bandwagon I'd expect to know basic physics and chemistry. I'd strongly advise against buying this just from seeing that horrible website and wild claims. Sorry mate, but no. You can just buy propelyne glycol and use that as coolant to stop it boiling, it's a lot cheaper. But still shit for the engine. If you want a real solution mount a fan or get a bigger radiator.
Can you testride a Zero bike, please? I'm not that into buying a petrol powered bike anymore and would like to see a review of someone who has knowledge in that topic.
Loves abit of Wombat/Lerderderg action. Shame about what the VEAC are now trying to get the state government to do with our state forrests. #SaveWombatStateForrest

OMG that ending! Dont worry Triumph, it was just sound effects!
Low k's hardly used.
Hi Nerb do you know where this is? It looks like a great place for a bit of a mini adventure.
Haha nothing wrong with a bit of rev bashing, she loved it
No I dont. Tom keeps is a secret, and Im the last person he will tell!
Nerb1 I had to try, thanks anyway
Probably the definitive Tiger 800 XC capability ride out there. Thanks!
Thats one of the best offroad review i have seen for the Tiger..Good job mate
Love that triple sound
Some of these hills you guys climbing seems to be a lot steeper than the footage makes it to be.
It's all good fun..., isn't it 🤗
Thumbs up from the Czech Republic 👍
pleasing to watch a Tiger being used properly. top video and top commentary. :)
Hahahahah, that end scene!
Yeah nah
How's that for timing Tom, I just put a deposit down on one yesterday.....my mate has a 2010 800 tiger XC and it is amazing where we have taken that bike, and actually pulls up hills better than a DR 650. The new tiger 800 XCA got better reviews than the African twin and the new GS 850....
Absolutely loved that bike!
just bought mine, good to know she's capable...
We need more side view shots of your hill climbs Tom because man GoPro's do such a great job making them look flat hahaha
Great video, and great content in general Tom, the middleweight adventure bikes are really looking good !
I might even consider getting a tiger as my next bike after watching this, but for now I'm going to stick with my Speed triple, I recently did a 5200km trip to the north cape on it, what a experience I can highly recommend it.

Thanks man!
Great video mate! What tires are you rocking? l have the same bike XCA 800 2016, what gear is the best for off-road? l find myself changing the gear too often.
F ing love motoFrogger rip we miss you man!
Love that sound
She sounds awesome, iddnt expect that
I love it!!! i think the best part is the last action (when you trap in mud :-p)
Tom how does moto froggers passing still affect you to the day? I used to watch him in motor cycle complications and other vids. But how are you doing?
Pretty capable big bike!
Excelente vídeo, parabéns pelas imagens.
Where about are you riding - looks like a fun place to try.
Cool bike
Hay Tom! Great vid. In your opinion could this bike have done the SA Desert trip you just did? If so, would you still prefer the WR250 on a trip like that?
Yeah I reckon I could do the Simpson or googs track on this, it is much better off-road then something like a bmw r1200 gsa
I miss seb in videos he wait ing for you my dude
7:00 isnt that the spot where Tom got attacked by a kookaburra? hahaha
Overall she did alright!
Tfs
awesome riding skills
Awesome review Tom! One question, if you could have only one bike, would you want this one?
Hmmm good question, probably yes or my WR250R. I guess the main take away is that the middle weight adventure market is much more appealing to me now after riding this bike. I’ve very excited for the upcoming ktm 790 adventure and Yamaha tenere 700 now.
No exact answer is also an answer...👎
Gday Tom, can you do your thing on gtr 1400, if possible, cheers mate.
Omg i am quite shook is this a con for the tiger? I am starting to like this bike bru
Like i shall it on the road and i sit on at a bike show yesterday loved the matte green one
That rev you did at the end was sex to my ears tom
2012 R1 or this tiger
The traction is really bad although your terrain is crazy haha i wont be doing anything as bad arse as you as i live in the urban jungle singapore but still lit toom cheers love your mate
The only thing that sucks is the mirrors i think it's too regit
Thinking about upgrading from a crf250l to this now

You make it look too easy....nice vid.
Yep ...love my 955...it hates the mud though ☹ But Tom what are your thoughts on Norton Atlas 650 ..100hp version touted.
Never heard of it until now!
One two magoo!! Success!
Now the question is should I get the 800xc or a 990 adventure
Almost 3 years since our brother has left this earth...
Rip Seb

are you going to do another big adventure ride in the desert
Hey tom,
try out this aussie coolant called liquid intelligence, we use it in our wr450f and have not had a single over heating issue since (no thermal fan either)
Sweet I’ll check it out, the coolant is still stock from 2012 so it’s really needs a flush
Just put in pure water if you want best cooling but it's obviously gonna split the engine if it freezes and it's gonna corrode it as well so you should not let it sit with the water in. For racing we fill before and empty the bikes after every day
yeah we could only ride our 2014 450f for about 30 min before needing to stop before you changed it over, now it goes for hours on end.

hey mate where is this your riding ?? seen it in a few of your vids and looks like theres some good trails there
Also keen to know.
Me too
what tires did the bike mounted in this video?
Pls do more on the 450!!!!
Certainly tested it out! 🤣
Can you testride a Zero bike, please? I'm not that into buying a petrol powered bike anymore and would like to see a review of someone who has knowledge in that topic.
u should get a car, not a bike in this case...
Hi! Call you speel the name of de cellphone mount? Its Klog lock? I couldn't find on amazon or ebay... thks!!
Its quad lock :)
Lol, no bikes were hurt in the production!
It looks like a very good off road bike, but how is it on pavement?
On highway is fantastic also!
ouch that ending xD
Sorry about Sebastian RIP
"it's not my bike, I don't wanna go to hard on it" ...then proceeds to! Check out the ending to see what the Tiger can do on single track & 'goo' !!
The best scene at the end of vdo
Nothing is same without Seb 😪😭😢 R.I.P
Good skills
We still miss moto frogger 😭😭😭😩😩😩
Seb will say only u can brother
Still Rip seb
Just f*ing thrashing it.
Rest in peace seb
Well, The rev limiter works.
Where abouts is this place? :) I live in Melbourne
I think its Wombat State Forest.
Rip Seb 😞 remember Seb
Axle Murial aka moto frogger rip

Loves abit of Wombat/Lerderderg action. Shame about what the VEAC are now trying to get the state government to do with our state forrests.
#SaveWombatStateForrest
elephant off-road...sums it up
What a silly question. You can offroad a Harley if you want to. The question is just if you should or not, and whether it'll try to kill you.
1, 2, Magoo....?!
Your dad didn’t use to say that aswell?
Maybe just yours Tom.
Only u can afford it
Seb
Wheres Seb
Pls remember it's more than 200 kilos and not a dirt bike so never take it into wetlands
Pq
Good reason to NEVER buy an ex demonstrator!
Still can't get into the sound of a triple.. but nice riding nonetheless.
Why’s it sound like there’s a hole in the air box
