Great video, even greater soundtrack ! - I love my Tiger 800 (XC) and nobody is ever going to convince me that rides like this will be just as much fun riding on a whispering electric rollerskate..
Having just purchased a second hand 2013 Tiger 800 XC and having seen how well it behaves on the road with 50/50 tyres on, it was great to see you do this. Hope that you had a blast.. Cheers from Australia
Love your video mate! Would do just about anything for a chance at the 'Ring. I think that the Tiger 800 is the best "Do it all bike" available - by a huge margin. I am a notorious bike swapper (8 NEW bikes in 6 years), but I've had my T800 (Roadie-not XC) for over two years now and have zero intention of giving her up! They can do ANYTHING, and do it all so very, very well.
One day. My people here don't know if they are bringing it Stateside though. I have never forgotten the Tiger, as it remains overall my fave Triumph. But meanwhile after the dreaded crankshaft shatter on my Sprint RS I will be trying to get it to 100K without pulling it apart again, it is at 13K now stay tuned. Video here: Triumph Sprint 955i Crankshaft R&R: Ol Yaller Comes Home. Cheers Neevesy I love your show.

awesome man!! This bike is so versatile, you can do pretty much anything on a tiger (track, road, dirt, travel). Love mine.
So versatile!!!
what tires?
xc or roadie?
Is that the xc???
Front wheel is spoked, so I'd say yes. The roadie has mag wheels.
Wire wheels so must be xc
