I prefer the 800 over the 900. It looks more substantial and of course doesn't have the 900's TFT display which I'm not sure i could live with. Nice bike fella.

[@motobob]

Cheers SC - the regular firing intervals are better on the motorway too when you get up to 70mph+

[@Mattventuring]

Although the 900 fixes a few things I don't like about the 800, eg air filter location, removable rear pegs, tubeless wheels, indicator location (I want to do this mode)

[@philipquatrino6852]

Great vid bubba! I’ve had my 800xca for about a year now. It’s an absolute dream. Would love to see more Tiger centered content! Keep up the great work. Cheers from San Diego

[@motobob]

Cheers PQ! At very least it'll appear in some comparison videos with other adventure bikes

[@baetech1982]

I'm in San Diego too....I also own few triumphs, love my tiger 800....

[@kee7678]

I'm in San Diego ALSO...and I'm getting a Tiger Rally Pro 900 soon.

[@yellowbearworks2535]

Oh man, this satin green paint looks gorgeous and so noble. I have a white 2018 XCA, absolutely love this bike.

[@pistolpete6321]

Great job on the accessories install, much better than I could do!

[@speedoangels6254]

The Tiger 800 XCa is looking great with all the mods 👌 Love the al fresco workshop too!

[@anthonytempongko1291]

Nice, Time for an upgrade, tiger 900 rally pro on the horizon 😎

[@evgeniydunaenko4893]

Where can I buy the indicator relocated kit?

[@yiannisbonis7244]

Much more beautiful than the 900 series!!!!

[@paulforster2247]

Nice! thanks man! Picking up my Tiger 800 XRX next saturday and these simple mods will really help!

[@Mixxy58]

Love it! Great allround bike with all the toys :)

[@kee7678]

Really good stuff man. Thanks

[@savate18]

Great video, hope to see more of this tiger soon !

[@lowriderrjw]

Great looking Tiger, right down to the color. Much more capable than your urban cruisers. Well done!

[@CharlieDeltaEchoVict]

Great video MB, lovely bike and mods. I use the tether to charge the battery as well - I would put a fuse in that when you get time.

[@paulbrook2459]

Great to see you have the Swiss Army knife of bikes 👍👍

[@motobob]

Couldn't have put it better myself!

[@tinks43]

Blimey, you’ve been busy! Nice upgrades, those indicators are funky.

[@fatles2008]

One of the best features of the Tigers is how comfortable they are, I've a XRX low and out all day on it in summer with no numb bum or back ache.

[@motobob]

Couldn't agree more - the first time I jumped on this one I couldn't believe how good the riding position is.

[@planetpeckham1]

Nice one! That little cubbyhole under the rear luggage plate is dead handy. I store a mini compressor and tyre repair kit there on mine.

[@punkrockdidi]

Used to own a tiger 800,went back to Yamaha and i regret it little bit... the fit and finish Triumph delivers makes you feel "special" and its worth the money 😊 I will probably start searching for a tiger again next year when the warranty on my Tracer expires 😅 love the looks of your Tiger btw!

[@motobob]

Interesting! I quite fancy a go on the tracer 9 GT because I loved the engine in the MT-09. But agree the triumph finish is right up there with the best

[@punkrockdidi]

@@motobob got the tracer 9 GT for a day when my tracer 7 was getting serviced,the electronic suspension in combination with the quick shifter made it a very fun experience 😅 180 kph and not even noticing it,a very well put together motorcycle to be honest.If you get the chance definitely try it!

[@k15fyss69]

Hey MOTOBOB very cool easy explained mods from a non professional (But I Think You've Got A Bit Of Savvy ) can't wait to see more . First thing ive ordered is the indicator reloction . Can't wait fit it , hoping not to break the solder joint🤭

[@Vasriotaep]

Thank for the video, probably my future bike 😉

[@Vasriotaep]

Well it's mine now. Let custom it now!

[@mrantone916]

Nice Editing mate! 👍🏼

[@nordfaen]

Thank YOU very much 😊

[@ronnie.b6376]

Man tiger and a trident in the same garage 👍

[@Oscar240z]

Interesting video. That foamer looks good perhaps make a video on that!

[@bandolin1216]

6:40 The Triumph Tiger 1200 XCa also has the turn signals placed higher up. I was on a riding skills course with a fella who had a 2023 Tiger 1200 and he dropped it during a slow speed U-turn and busted the turn signal. So, the new position is no guarantee. Therefore, I'm not convinced relocating the turn signals to the higher position will work.

[@gryphongryph]

The Triumph Trident sure looks lovely, nice lines, I wish Triumph would make a bigger Trident, 1000cc or 1200cc and make it black and mean looking 😎

[@bobz1736]

Nice one Bob! Miss my Tiger 800 XCx 😒 P.s. dash protectors... the answer to a question nobody asked 😅

[@norrscotproductions]

Hi, thanks for this video! Great video and really useful accessories! Wondering if you can you add a link for the indicators please? Thanks

[@robinfauvel6052]

You mean the relocation kit? Here you are: www.advmoto.co/ facebook.com/adv.moto.7

[@BikesVansandThings]

“Don’t worry about it” 😂👍🏻👍🏻

[@motobob]

[@DaleMt09sp]

Bought a 2018 one of these in red as my first bike after passing. Purchases so far are triumph tank pad Fender extender And scorpion exhaust Can’t really fault the bike Another than I had to adjust the gear lever as it was way to tight initially

[@tjdier1650]

The bike's looking great! I reckon a Denali sound bomb would be a nice addition.

[@motobob]

Oh yes mate - will add that to the list. Stock horns are always a bit limp...

[@jokerprivat9638]

Hi Motobob, Thanks for your Videos. Great work. Is ist possible to get a link for the relocation-kit? Couldn’t find it anywhere. Greets from Germany

[@peterhatfield5632]

Personally, I would have wired that heated clothing lead via a relay, switched with the rear light cable. That way it would switch off with the ignition, and it's a very simple job to do.

[@motobob]

Yeah that's a good idea - the dashcam system is spliced in there so I know how to get at it now. One for a rainy weekend!

[@nicholaschai4458]

You’re one lucky chap

[@Englishbikerdan]

Nice Motobobbins! :D

[@motobob]

Haha yes mate!

[@colindeans5972]

Looks the business 👌

[@bradleyalexander5821]

Yep I’ve gotta 18 Tiger XCa and love every mile of it. Bought it for off-roading, yet it does take an hour or so to get to the mountain trails. So road performance is essential and delivered with this bike. Gonna try her out on a 300+ mile road trip tomorrow for the holiday. We’ll see, would enjoy more content on this new bike of yours for obvious reasons. 👍🏼 😎 🇺🇸 🌎

[@coboisarapatanas]

Barkbusters; crash bar sliders will give you protection for crash bars and even more clearance to the tank; front wheel sliders; first aid kit; rest stand enlarger; and that’s it. My protection it’s all paid with a stupid slow moving u turn 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@motobob]

Good shouts mate! Especially on the sliders - a little extra clearance to the tank would be great.

[@steve.afendoulis]

@@motobob Heed bars seem to be the way - look how the stock bottom bars mount too, dodgy.

Really liked this video and give me a few ideas for my tiger 🤣 Out of interest did you buy your tiger from Fowlers in Bristol ?

[@destinoalsur2749]

Hi, I love the blinkers mod. Could you share the link to buy them? Thanks.

[@mydadsageek9592]

Bit of advice please? Looking at getting a Tiger. Seen an XC I like. This is mainly going to be used all year around on the road. Is the XC ok? Thanks in advance

[@ronnie.b6376]

Outback has good stuff

[@advdan]

How does the footage look from your rear dash cam? My top box mount moves around on rubber bushes, so I’m assuming the camera will shake around all over the place? 🤔 TIA bud

[@craighugill1479]

Hi can you please let me know where I can get the front indicator change kit. I've trawled the web and I'm not sure what I've found matches. Cheers

[@williamclarke2020]

Do you still enjoy the 800? I actually like the bug eye look of the HLs. Gives it a more rugged, purposeful look. Great channel, Buddy!

[@jamiemcgrory1964]

The Quadlock recommending a dampener for phones with optical stabilisation is a right pain as otherwise it's a great setup (I have it for my iPhone XS which has not broken... yet). Puts me off continuing to use it for my next phone as every time I ride I feel like it could be the day it breaks, but as you say the dampener is an EXTRA big chunk of plastic (I've got the wireless charger plate on there already making it bulky). I wish they'd have just built a dampening into the wireless charger.

[@motobob]

That's a great idea - 2 for 1. I'd be more interested if they did that

[@EmmanuelAlexis]

I’m using a RAM mount and been riding with my iPhone 11 since I bought the bike (Tiger 800 xca) 2 years ago; never had a problem with the cameras of my phone. I even rode with the phone attached on my off road adventures! I guess I’ve been lucky.

[@CrazyGreek80]

Hey Motobob why an ADV and not a sport touring just curious cause I am up in the air on both?

[@neatoelectro3687]

Any chance you could link me the bobbins you're using? I'm having a heck of a time finding ones that work.

[@YouMotorcycle]

Fourteen years riding... Never knew I needed a sticker over my dash... You sure about that one? :\

[@davidg1230]

I knew you’d get an Adventure bike, I considered a Green XCa too and love this colour option. I’m sure the green 900 was the preferred choice but hard to justify the cost uplift? Tasteful accessories too. Great video Rob

[@neilcole3406]

Had mine from 2014, every time l think about trading her in for something new l go for a ride and think,” nah l still love this bike let the shiny new one stay in the showroom”, so much better for my soul and bank balance !

[@advdan]

Did you have the tank wrapped? Would love to get the same colour wrap!

[@motobob]

Nope this was one of the options for 2019/2020 I think...

[@advdan]

@@motobob oh right! I thought it was only the Rally & Rally pro that came in that colour 😳

[@user-sw2lv3zp6o]

How many bikes do you own, Bob? I like the look of that Trident.

[@motobob]

Sold the bonnie and trident to fund the Tiger :)

[@user-sw2lv3zp6o]

@@motobob Did you like the Trident? I ask you as I am considering one.

[@motobob]

@@user-sw2lv3zp6o it’s a brilliant bike. Much preferred it over the equivalent Japanese bikes. But it just wasn’t suited to my riding at the moment. It’s a perfect city bike, weekend toy, easy commuter, and occasional distance rides. But If you’re slogging on the motorway an adv makes sense.

[@user-sw2lv3zp6o]

@@motobob I get you. Many thanks for explaining, Bob. And keep up the good work.

[@oDinx03]

Where did you buy that Scorpion exhaust??

[@pedrosantonja1869]

[@SandyRider]

Can you please add some auxiliary lights on this.?

[@motobob]

They came as standard!

[@hi90163]

How much have you spent on training courses?

[@woodywood3388]

800XCA? Is this an older model? I thought the current range was limited to the 850 sport, the two 900s and the 1200.

[@motobob]

Yeah it's the last of the previous gen. It only had 900 miles on it and was about £5k cheaper than the equivalent spec on the Tiger 900.

[@sparkie920]

Hi, just come across this video. Could you send me the web site for the indicator conversion kid. Thanks 👍

[@trynew22]

I'm unable to find heated seat switch, could you please help.

[@motobob]

On the xca?? It’s on the top of the left switchgear. Other models won’t have it I guess

[@caroldave4037]

Well bob welcome too no style ..no cool bikes.. 🤣to the amazing world choice of adv bikes ive had 2 tigers xc in that green and white.. old models mind ...bonneville and street triple were just too impracticle...current vstrom 1050 xt is a ticking my boxes atb ..happy tigering👍

[@motobob]

Haha! I think it looks cool still... my tastes must be changing. Agree the V-Strom looks like a good option too - I did research it but found I could get a fully loaded XCa used for the same price as a new more affordable XT. Maybe when there are more on the used market I'll take a look...

Yep a couple of months back! Sad times but it's a great city bike, not a great motorway bike

[@nickbrown1973]

Sounds like you chose this bike for pounding the tarmac...why didn't you go for the XRT out of interest?

[@kingteam4491]

Is this tiger 800xca or tiger 900 rally pro Which is better BOB???

[@man16812]

He has the Tiger 800xca. Which one is better? Will depend of what you want the bike for. The 800 is better for highway, the 900 will be better for off-road.

[@motobob]

Yeah I got this for about £5k less than the equivalent Tiger 900 with less than a thousand miles on the clock, so that was a big factor for me. Also prefer the smooth even firing order on the motorway. The Tiger 900 is better in a lot of areas (tech, brakes, styling perhaps) but I wanted to stick to a budget.

[@Dod5ter]

@@motobob have the prices shot up since you bought it? Most now seem to hover very near to the price of a new 850 sport!?!
