    Nice method, never seen it before - thanks for showing. When you melt the ends and want to roll them between your fingers to make them look nice and smooth, but don't want to burn yourself, just put your fingers in a small bowl of cold water for ten or twenty seconds. I use a tealight for melting the ends, so one hand is free to cool in water - never got a burn again after developing this method.

    Stupid tent IMO. More space for your bike than you and the price and weight is nuts. Get a Vango Pulsar 300 and have nearly the same vestibule area, lighter, better material and 3 times the sleeping area for only $200. Set up is identical. It's not quite as tall but the wind won't catch it as much either. If you buy anything that's made "specifically" for riding, expect to pay 200% more for it and it's never 1% better.

    • @sergioandre8759
      @sergioandre8759 7 лет назад

      You do not stand up in that vango pulsar 300, right?

    • @SigmaSheepdog
      @SigmaSheepdog 6 лет назад

      I checked out the Vango tents based on your reply. Yes, they are cheaper, Yes, they are a little bit lighter, but I want a tent that I can stand up in. As far as the price, a good tent, if you take care of it, will last a quite a while. So, if I pay an extra $250.00 or so for the Redverz that's just two maybe three nights in a hotel (unless you like staying in bedbug ridden locations.) A Redverz will pay for itself in a week of travel then I'll have it for several more years. An extra $250.00 or so....BFD!

    • @BJWallen
      @BJWallen 7 лет назад

      If you're traveling alone, then the Solo Expedition is what you need. The Atacama is HUGE at 4.9m long, compared to the 3.7m length of the Solo Expedition. The Atacama should only be used if you're traveling with a companion.

    • @sergioandre8759

    • @BJWallen
      @BJWallen 7 лет назад

      I always park the bike with the kickstand on the opposite side of me, so if it falls, it's going the other way. The tent packs up nicely for it's size, in my opinion. Check out this video to see how I pack the tent (and some other things) - ruclips.net/video/IuA4nJQ3pZA/видео.html

    @lynnkramer1211 8 лет назад

    So if it is raining when you get to camp, you would need to unload onto the wet ground all the contents of your dry bag until you got to the tent on the bottom? It would be more logical to load the tent last so that it can be pitched first then the bag can go into the tent and at least have a small chance of keeping the rest of the contents dry. I assume that your hard trunk is for your clothes and cooking gear? Do you carry a cooler or a water container? Extra fuel containers? Thanks for your video. I am retiring this year and will resume touring after a lapse of about 30 years. My last bike was a 1978 Honda 750F and I road it from Idaho to Montreal and then back to Seattle, Portland back to Idaho and then onto Eastern Nebraska to visit my Granny. This time I am with my two sons and they both have classic Hondas, one a 650CX Custom and a V45 Saber 750. So I am learning what to take little by little. You are a fascinating guy thanks again.

    • @BJWallen
      @BJWallen 8 лет назад

      If I used a sock-type dry bag, then I would have to pack the tent in a last-in-first-out fashion. However, I use a duffle-style dry bag so that the items contained therein are on the same plane and readily available, as necessary. All of my camp gear fits into a single dry bag. Anything with an odor including cooking gear, toiletries, food, etc., is segregated into a single, duffle-style dry bag. This is so that I can grab just this bag and place it into a food locker or hang it, when necessary. Odorous items are NEVER intermingled with items in the camp bag. My top case contains riding gear like jacket and pant liners, gloves, microfiber towels for cleaning the windshield or helmet faceshield, etc. I also carry a 4L MSR Dromodary full of extra water in the top case. One saddlebag contains clothes. The other saddlebag contains tools. I use a BMW tank bag where I carry a Camelbak bladder filled with water for drinking on the move. I also store my phone, tablet, and other miscellaneous items here like sunscreen, Tylenol, sunglasses, etc. A company called GiantLoopMoto.com makes fuel bladders. Check out my Camping page - motorcycling.bjwallen.com/musings/camping. Also, check out my blog about my recent trip around the US and Canada - motorcycling.bjwallen.com/trips/2016/four-corners-and-alaska/blog
