A lot of free time for now, trying to keep my sanity while pumping some money into the economy.
Unfortunately as the Meatloaf song goes: "All Revved Up With No Place To Go"!
Pyramid Extenda Fenda installed using Oatey ABS cement:
Shock Sox:
GIVI S322 LED Fog lights:
*Also cleaned/detailed the whole bike to a showroom fresh level.
**My hands, arms, knees and back are now shot.

I made my white led pod lights yellow.
Brake fluid change done yesterday and thanks to this great forum I learnt how to purge the ABS pump too (with the jumper wire on that connection under the seat). Really happy that I did that too. Brakes are much better now. I reckon there may have been some air trapled in my ABS pump. All feals good now though
My 2012 Tiger 800 looked great after 4 years.

I ventured into a new GPS setup. Moved my existing Garmin Montana to a bar mount and installed a Samsung Tab A (2019) on the windshield mount. Going to try to use GAIA GPS as main off road GPS source.

that’s a great set up with the tablet. When I was in north Africa with my bike last year, I ran into a local who used a Samsung tablet as his GPS. He also had a data package on it so got instant information on everything. He chose a tablet over GPS because he could use Google maps and would have a much larger screen to boot. With our exorbitant data rates in Canada, you could probably use maps.me or Sygic.

I used a heat gun, heat the whole edge well being careful not to melt the plastic, then start opening from the top, heat again if necessary, the butyl tape then it must be put back when we close the headlight!

Nice mod! Subtle but effective.

Gaia seems to have the option of downloading the layers needed in advance if you know the route you will taking. I will do some tests around this area before venturing into our planned trip this year on the NEBDR.
Right now I have way to much glare from the screen protector of the case. I am waiting on an anti glare screen protector material to see if it helps.
Thanks for the recommendations

Had to take it out while the sun poked a few beams out. Tomorrow will be sunny and warmer and further. Have a great day everyone and stay safe.
