    UPDATE: Although the MotoTent has been a great tent over the last four years, we’ve decided to try something new. We’ll be using a Big Agnes Wyoming Trail 2 for the next chapter of our travels. Stay tuned for a future review…

    Great review and thanks! Maybe you could also review all of the kit you have used? The best way to strap your kit on your bike? How to keep your kit safe while riding? Keep your kit safe while you go for a coffee? How you keep your kit dry while riding? Maye you coukd share all your experience while travelling along with the travel videos too if you have time :-) Planning a trip so it would be great to get video advice from you guys 👍🏻

      Thanks for the comment. I like your idea of a future kit video and review - although we tend to pack on the heavy side. We do have a travel video series on this channel as well - currently we are editing and producing Season 3 where we spent 90 days in the wonderful country of Croatia.

    You hit on my small list of cons (a little hot inside in warm weather and takes space to set up, not free standing. On the other hand, their smaller tent is great when it’s hot, but small. You get spoiled being able to stand up inside your tent

      Thanks for the comment Kevin. Do you have the MotoTent with the bug netting that runs the full length from the floor to the ceiling? I was curious if this made a big difference in ventilation.

      @@viajarMOTO Yeah, i have the larger screened doors, but it still gets pretty toasty inside unless both ends of the rain fly are open and it’s lined up so a breeze flows through. It’s amazing in the cold/wind and I’d rather be a little warm than too cold (a small portable rechargeable fan fixes the former…the later is harder)

      Thanks for the info.

    Why does no-one ever show how small the tents pack down to? It's possibly the biggest factor for a lot of riders - we need to know if we can fit it in/on the bike.

      Packed size: ~60x20cm (24"x8") www.lonerider-motorcycle.com/collections/tents/products/motorcycle-tent-mototent

      Almost all tents are within similar dimensions from small 2 man tents packing down to around 40x15cm to 4 man tents and even tents like this being 60x20cm while weight it usually around 2KG - 6KG. Basically, you are unlikely to get a tent in panniers and pack size is unlikely to make a big difference to how you strap the tent to your bike. That's my experience anyway.

    What do you do when it rains? Do you let’s your tent dry out every time before putting it away?

    • @viajarMOTO

      Sometimes we do have to store it wet, but we always ensure it doesn’t stay that way for more than a day or two. Once it gets sunny we dry it out or we let it dry in an apartment.

    Thanks for the review but I am not happy with the amount of damage such an expensive tent suffered, strong winds or not.
    That really is a massive failure in quality in my opinion...

      Having been through the wind storm… I don’t think any large tent with aluminum poles would have faired much better. There is a limit to what any tent fabric with a large footprint can endure. The biggest disadvantage of the Lone Rider tent is that it needs stakes to secure it to the ground - it’s not freestanding.
