2012 Tiger 800 my boss gave me to ride around on while I'm down here in Maine. Looks like it's going to be mine. First time riding Triumph, nice little machine.

Now that we can travel again, I'm getting ready to head north to the Yukon and NWT.
How do you like the low (Zard?) exhaust? Do you ever wish for more wind protection or this is fine?Now that we can travel again, I'm getting ready to head north to the Yukon and NWT.

Love the exhaust. Saves 5kgs, lowers the C of G and sounds good. What's not to like?
I added a deflector to the Triumph screen and that provides all the wind protection I need.

I got to test ride a Scrambler at Americade a couple of weeks ago - it's a very fun bike! The 1200 engine has a nice character.

Looks significantly lowered ... yes?
Very much so. Looks like a T120. May be even lower.
I wonder what side stand it is... Can anyone guess?

And that begs some questions ... such as why?
To each their own.

Excellent!
How is it with range? Maybe you weren't so far from a fill-up?

My bike showed 4.2 lt/100kms before the trip but I didn't think I had enough kms and reliable history to use that for planning. Based on the limited information on the internet fuel consumption could be as high as 5.0lt/100kms, so I played it safe an always carried extra fuel. But I never had to use it. On my travels I had to make compromises, such as a 160km detour off the Liard Highway to Ft. Simpson for fuel, but the nearest to running out was the 315kms between Fort Providence and Yellowknife that resulted in this ...
Check out the range, bottom right. Close call.

You didn't push it to see how conservative the gauge is? 
That's about 200 miles out of the tank? Not bad, though I'm sure those last miles were a bit anxious (I've been there ... most of us have, right?). How much spare gas do you carry when you do?
I know I've mentioned this somewhere in one forum or another (very well could be here), but I took a fun spin on a Scrambler at Americade in June. Such a fun bike!
