Hey Rob, One bit of advice, you might want to think about different boots. Two of the guys I ride with had Forma Adv boots, and both of them ended up in hospital with broken legs. Those boots are banned at a lot of events and by touring companies because they don't give ample protection. Now that you have bought a T7 and it looks like you are getting more into Adv riding, just be aware that the number 1 injury in Adventure riding is foot injuries.
So which ones would you recommend? haha because these boots look sick!
@@gamasierra hard MX style boots give much better protection. Personally I ride with Sidi crossfire 2 boots which are great.
When it comes to adventure riding, function should trump form. Foot injuries are the number 1 motorcycle injury, and you WILL drop the bike a lot more in adv riding.
@@brentbat sidi for me had forma they were a nice comfortable boot but really offered little or no protection
Step 1: learn to ride a motorcycle… I watch people all the time Putting their feet down and all it does is dislocates you from your bike, keep you feet where they belong and trust your bike …
Question: who wants to where MX boots for weeks/months long?
(I travel for 6-8 months per year) I love my formas and any event that doesn’t allow them can suck eggs …
@@timlubbers2884 how well you ride your bike is not going to save your ankle when your bike fall on it.
I got my Mototent last winter mainly for a 16 day 8000km trip through the Canadian Rockies. I live in the prairies and my first night on the trip found me camping in the middle of a massive storm. 90km sustained winds, hail and a tornado touched down 2 km away. I show my video and people are shocked. I stayed dry and the tent stayed upright. I made a hot coffee while the wind howled. I was impressed! I find it really easy to set up and I strap it on my pillion with rock straps. I ride an 2017 800gsa. I don’t even notice it’s there. I wish I had bought the awning kit at the time. I also have an 30litre overlander bag and I am impressed with Lone Rider’s quality. The tent and bag are still like brand new. I’m 6’3 and love the room in the tent. Love your videos.
Thanks Rob! Mine has just arrived. Will do test setup on Saturday. Great review! Keep on the great work
Dude! That transition b/w the tent off/on the T7! Glad that you are providing your thoughts after thoroughly testing this puppy out. Seems like it's a great set up, despite being a bit heavy and cumbersome. Always a trade off b/w comfort and weight when it comes to moto-travel.
Love it! I’m leaning towards the ADV tent just for the size for single night trips but a few nights in a row I’d choose the Moto tent for sure
I ride a Ninja 400 and recently bought this tent as I go away doing photography (sometimes) found it fits nicely in the Ventura rack and it’s not overly wide if laying across the rack or I can have it standing up. Yet to get out and test it. Thanks for the video 👍🏽
Merry Christmas Rob,
I have enjoyed your videos for some time and dreamed of getting a Moto Tent. Well this past Thanksgiving I got my tent on the black Friday sale.
Looking forward to the first time using the Lone Rider Moto Tent.
Thank you for your great videos you have been a inspiration for me.
Wishing you a Happy New Year and all the best.
Stoney
Looks like a great setup mate. We look forward to seeing many more of your adventures
Thank you!
We've been using the MotoTent for well over a year now, and living out of it for a few months. It's great for a couple, plus the garage (I call it the workshop) is great for me because I'm working my job from campgrounds and it gives me the perfect place to work/edit videos in the rain.
I’ve seen some of your vids! I can see you’re using it to its full potential too. They super handy especially for long trips if you afford the space
“Build-up in 5 minutes” 😂 Wishfull thinking but it’s a super tent, I love it. You do need the optional awning kit if you ask me. For two people it is a bit euhm… cosy. Okay for a couple, but for two big guys it could be a challenge.
Yes a “challenge” lmaooo
Thank you for this video! Do i want this tent, YES! Will intake your advice to start off cheaper and easier since i have little experience... yeah i guess so
Nice review, thanks!
I've just got the tent and I'm in two minds about it. Love all the features when it's up BUT
1. It's taking me 10-15 minutes to get the tent up. Even when (if) I get that down to 5-7 minutes that's a long time when it's pouring with rain.
2. In high winds the tent has the profile of a barn door, and the guy ropes look like they only just keep up with the struggle - maybe additional guy ropes on the middle pole would help?
3. The poles seem to go on forever. You don't want to be in a tight space trying to insert them into the tent loops.
4. To get all the features when you stop, you have to find room and carrying capacity when you're moving - and it's a bloody huge bag.
5. I found that the tent straps slip off the pegs in high winds. To fix that I made loops out of elastic for each strap. That allows for a little "give" so that the tent can flex in the wind slightly rather than fight it.
Cheers
Great video Rob. I love the MotoTent and its size is no problem for me. Your fellow Auzzie Mark (Biker Bits) gave a great suggestion of using one big dry bag to contain all camping kit. That dry bag is the 32" wide "Unplug" produced by another Auzzie Frazer. I load into the Unplug my MotoTent, awning, Exped pad & sleeping bag, table and chair. I place the Unplug between myself and the trunk and let the Unplug span across the seat onto the Dolomiti panniers...gives me a nice back rest. Setting up camp is fast and efficient.
Interesting! I’ll check that out
I really like mine which is mostly used for 2 up camping weekends. I split the contents into 2 Dry bags (25L is a squeeze for the outer, 30L easy) then strap the two bags onto the top of my panniers leaving the seat free for the wife.
Question/request for the tent: could you do a short spot going over both the setup and pack down technique/timing (I’ve seen almost no one cover packing up), and tips and tricks you’ve picked up along the way for both of those in windy and/or rainy weather?
My own is sat waiting for it’s first outing in my living room right now! But I’m always a little worried when that bad weather might roll through unexpectedly.
Thanks for another awesome video, loving the content!
MotoTent is one of the reason I wanna start camping. If you can please ask LoneRider if they'll start delivering in India too, would be awesome. love your content.
I love my moto tent, I would certainly recommend it.
Nice Rob, i really like the look of this tent been watching it for ages as i have other lone rider gear, i think a camo version would have me sold, not a fan of the red
Mine is in the mail cant wait to put it to good use in the new year
Nice! You’ll enjoy it
Great Work mate.
Definitely camo 😎
Great review. I got mine in October and can't wait to get out with it. I got it really for the large vestibule for shelter, but good to know it will fit my GSA. Also just received my Overlander 48L bag - good stuff. Moto Bags will be next at some point.
Nice! The Moto Bags are so solid. I can’t wait to actually use them
I have the 30l overlander bag. I wish I bought the 40 litre though. Although I make the 30l work. It’s held up amazingly well.
I’m literally waking up in that tent right now.
Stormed alllll night.
Haha awesome!
Good review, it's the one I'm looking for: long term, pros and cons...
Glad you enjoyed it 🙏
great informative vid
Could you please tell me the brand/model of the high back camp chair you use please. Great vid!
Mate awesome vid. Just remember everyone will have there opinion but its your setup at rhe end if the day if it works for you thats all that matters.
Love all my Lone Rider gear. I've got the MotoTent and it's one of the best tents I've used. The bike is carrying the weight, so why deprive yourself of some creature comforts? I also have a hammock set up from Warbonnet Outdoors, another great company that provide not only top of the line products that they make in house but their customer service is amazing too. Worth giving them a look, not sure if they ship to Australia or not.
Cool tent.
Got a very similar tent about a year ago, not for motobiking tho. Paid a case of beer for it, good deal. By the way it got hot in there in the summer, no/only lite breeze and +40°C in the shadows tho.
which scrambler do u ride its beautiful
Having been caught in multi day rain, I love a tent that I can relax in, which includes standing up and cooking when it’s raining cat n dogs…
I need to transport the front of the top box. of 48 liters, do you think it is possible? , sorry my english👋 from chile 🇨🇱👋
Rob darling we haven’t done it in that lovely tent.
Family have forbidden this pensioner to ride a bike any more but I will be looking at this tent to chuck in the car along with my "survival" bag (that has the essentials if an overnight stop is required). I do get to travel about the UK a fair bit being retired and still able but I don't always want to drag my caravan along. Been looking for a suitable tent for a couple of years but the choice is either tiny and stuffy or needs a couple of Sherpas to pitch!
Hey Rob, great video. I'm with you on everything except on the bringing food into/in contact with the tent. I don't know if you have bears in your neck of the woods but where I'm from, that's a big nono. (Unless you want the tent to serve as a sort'of bear burrito wrapper.)
Hey Rob ,I rather be out camping then living in a house all the time I love the outdoors.
So good! I looked into them after your last video. That's a lot of money to part with, but you can't put a price on comfort right?
Unless you enjoy sitting in the rain 🌧️
ROB, I'm an older well seasoned gal coming over in October for 1 year solo ride across AU. Since I have lots of camping experience and my current tent is too small, ( a 2 person but I can barely sit up in it) would you recommend this tent? I know there will be many different AU weather and I just hate not being able to stand.. as well as sun protection and bad weather..it will be huge on my bike, but I'd rather have more room then only able to barely sit up... your thoughts?
Rob I'm 6'6 do they make that tent for people as tall as me
Does this tent needs footprint for the layer on the ground ?? Or just go ahead
You forgot the fact that if you have to work on your bike and it's raining or boiling hot under the sun you can unhook the front of the inner tent fold it back oe remove it totally and park your bike in there length ways giving you plenty of room to get around your bike and solve the problem out of the weather, I bought mine a few years ago and asked for the kaki colour one but they must have sold out at the time and they sent my the whitish one instead, no bike deal, helps reflect the heat in summer....
I honestly haven’t even thought to do that! That would work perfectly
White is the highest vibrational color so good for you! (One of my passionate hobbies is chroma therapy 🌈😎) White helps the starchakra at the top of your head as well as all of your other energetic chakra centers. Great luck to you and have lots of fun! 👍🏽🧡🍀🌟💖🧡🥳🌞🗽🆓☮️🌎♻️❗️
The vestibule looks great for extended trips where there's bad weather, some extra room to enjoy when the weather is bad, which begs the question, why bother all that extra weight etc just to keep your bike warm? A backpacking tent suits me fine, as the weight/size saving far outweighs the extra space available on the odd night that you have a bit of weather......A motorbike is weight sensitive as we all know, so backpack gear is the go in my opinion. 😎
The extra weight isn’t to just keep your bike warm though, it’s for all the things you mentioned at the start of your comment too. If I was going for a one nighter every now and then and the weather was perfect then I’d take a smaller tent too
I've never parked my bike in mine. I have stood up and got dressed in it (i'm 6'3"), cooked in it, washed in it, My wife and I have sat in there with evening drinks etc. I know they market it as a garage but most people don't.
Bit big and heavy I personally think.I do like the tent but I think of some of the tight wild camping areas I have been in and I don't think this would fit.i think it would be great to pitch in a proper campsite and leave it pitched for a few days and tour the area.
Waiting for the T7 mods😅 anyways love that tent
Haha I’m still waiting for a bunch of parts to turn up
Please upload your next camping vedio quickly
would love to see something with a slightly less loud branding on it.
😍
Great tent review, not one for me but regardless good review. My big question is, should I take advice from a young buck that hasn't figured out how to properly wear a brimmed ball cap. The brim goes in front to help shade your eyes.
Respect for your insanity. Good job.
Hi Rob, like that tent, it seems that you touch the tent roof with your head and it is supposed to be 2m, how tall are you?😂
Nice review!!
Thanks.
Watch from 1:12 😉
Sorry
Ok 👍👌
If you have got "that much space" 🤚...🤚between your feet and your head ..you can't be 5'11" 😅 ..btw ..I have ordered one of these ..
I wonder how this bike will ride in the snow
Hi
😊
If you ever need a reason to close up camp when you turn in. Rats and mice. The Aussie bush is inundated with them, and they run around all over anything you leave out once your lights go off. There's bacteria in their piss that causes a nasty fever.
I always thought the tent was cool but never thought in a million years it would be $750
Orders for Australia won't be available til 1st half of JUNE 2023!!! No way I'd be parting with $800 and being told to wait 6 months....
I contacted them 12-12-22 and it was a mistake mate. It was updated overnight, available now
Waaay to big and unnecessary imo. Small tent and hammock tarps do the same and pack up tiny. Really making proper offroading difficult. Great tent however.
first viewer
Lol rip off tent
How so?
Yet another 'sales pitch' vlog about the Lone Rider Moto-Tent. Why on Earth do you need to put your motorcycle in a tent?
In my experience, most motorcycles are fairly water- resistant.
Even in your commentary about how 'stable' the tent is in high winds, the tent was clearly bending and did not inspire my confidence in its structural integrity. The tent is way too high and bendy.
And coming back to my first thought, why do you need to put a motorcycle in a tent?
I'm not spending £800 on a pointless product.
There, I've said it. Love and peace.
