We camped with the Loner Rider Moto tent in a terrible thunderstorm once. Howling wind and rain but the tent took it in it's stride. Heartedly recommend it.

Great review. The value of the garage area cannot be overstated, having a place out of the weather where you can stand and strech, do basic camp chores or even sit and relax makes a long motorcycle trip much more relaxing and makes me way less likely to get a motel

Had something like that. Never used garage as it was in the way. Tent got ripped to bits in a storm In Mauritania as it was too tall. Ended up with a £25 tent and bike cover. Still got both 3 years later and love them. Super quick to put up

Sorry to hear that your first tent was destroyed - but not many tents can’t stand up to a heavy heavy storm. The LoneRider moto tent has some great features and the “garage” is great but also useful and a standing up area to get changed more comfortable

brilliant insight into the tent mate. 2 things I love about this tent is the simple pole structure 1 way in and thats literally it saves running round the other side making sure it hooks in when it's windy and going everywhere. 2nd thing I love about this is you can still gain access two inside the tent even when the motorcycle is in. simple but perfect 👌 nice work James and kera.

I’ve got one of these, one criticism is it’s hard to get the poles out of the sleeves when the tent is wet. I only disconnect the inner tent if the tent is wet, so it keeps dry until deploying the tent at the next camp spot. It’s a good idea to pitch the tent with the narrow end into the wind. Pitch it so you get the morning sun. Out of my collection of tents this is my favourite to use if I’m going to be in a campsite for more than one night. The vestibule is brilliant to sit in and prepare meals.

I don't know if I would keep the bike in the garage area, but looks great for setting up a couple of chairs and hanging out when it's raining, would put another tarp down in that area and makes a great place to take off your muddy gear before getting in the tent as well.

Greetings fellow motocamper. You don't need to take the inner tent out. I've got to grips with mine now. Just put 2 pegs in at bedroom end then 1 pole at a time or you might stand on one. Then walk it forward & then peg the garage end 2 ropes. I've also learned to leave one side still pegged when taking it down in the wind. Awesome tent. There is however room for improvement. Enjoy dude. Good vid.

Thanks for sharing. I'm just surprised that it doesn't pack down smaller and lighter. As a big fan of Henry Shires' Tarptents (30D double silicone-coated ripstop nylon), I can only surmise that the MotoTent is a much heavier material than necessary. A Tarptent Double Rainbow, all in (tent, poles, extra poles, stakes, bag) is under 3 lbs. This MotoTent is huge! Love the vestibule, but does a real biker REALLY need to have is bike in the tent? Space better utilized by the humanoids.

For approximately 300 nights, I lived in that lightweight tent. Still have it. No rips. No tears. No holes. People who need "durability" must be the same people who have holes in their drywall and say they need cement walls.

Great review :-) I bought mine on the Black friday sale in november. So now I just waiting for the snow to melt sometime in April so I can test it. I won't park the bike inside, but use it as a sitting room and have my chair and table there. And it will be great to be able to stand up and get dressed, cause my body is no longer as flexible as it was forty years ago. Started to be real uncomfotable to crawl on my hands and knees out of my old tent just to get dressed.

Definitely a great living area though, for me it's way overpriced for what it is, possibly aimed at "all the gear no idea" crew lol, I'll stick to my 6 year old HiGear Aura 3 for now, £150 I can stand up in the bedroom and living area, but it is 10kg,but who cares I'm on a bike not hiking, thanks for sharing, Goyts Clough quarry nice spot for the video as well.

Just got one and set it up in the yard today for first time. Have no intention of ever putting my bike in it (most of time I travel on a trike) but do love, as you said, a place that can stand up straight getting dressed or such and also if raining, a great place to sit in and read or cook or what ever. Also, with the canopy up, a great place to be able to sit in the shade when it's hot out. Also being double walled and all, it's really a 4 season tent! I did think the ground cloth was for the garage area tho?! There's also great rings for hooking it on in the garage area. Guess I might have to have two ground tarps. LOL

Good review! I bought one of these also, but haven't been able to try it yet though because it's January in Saskatchewan Canada. I'm up to my ass in snow and the ground is frozen so you wouldn't get pegs in the ground😂. I think your obsession with the garage area is a guy thing.....I love that concept too! Mine is going with me on a 3 week holiday this summer so it will get a good test then. As far as the size and weight I think it's a great trade off though. I just weighed mine in its bag with 2 awning kits in there too and it was 16lbs or 7.3kg. Being able to get the bike sheltered is also great for those occasions when you have to set up camp and it's pouring outside, at least then when you get it up and the bike ran inside you can get to the rest of the things you need without being in the rain, I am in my mid 50's so I appreciate some creature comforts and features. From everything I have seen and read about it, it was a well thought out tent. I am looking forward to spring when this white junk is gone so I can try setting it up.

Good film and a great demonstration but I've got two big issues with this set up. Firstly the price - £460! My Berghaus Grampian 3-man is a nice, geodesic tent which I paid £180 for from Go Outdoors online. That's heading for a third of the Moto price. Secondly: why the hell do you want to get your bike into the tent? If it's a wet weekend the chances are you've been riding for hours through the rain anyway (or will do the following day). It's going to be in the way right next to you and needs careful handling or it's going to end up on its side. The facility to stand up to change clothes in the garage area is an advantage but you're paying a lot for the privilege.

If its cold and wet, getting t'bike in sharpish whilst it's still hot can also help get clothes dry and you warm. The weight thing is down to what bike you have I guess, and what it will carry.

Nice big tent if you need room for a few people but ill never understand why the hell you would want the bike in the tent , just take a cheap light bike cover to keep weather and thieving eyes off

Consider it as a place to be able to pack the bike up or unload the bike away from the elements or even as a place to use as a garage area for ant repairs etc?

Stand alone tents can be moved after pitching them. When your at a hotel or cabin you'll need a bike cover anyway. I don't see the appeal ?

its certainly not a wild camping tent,,,it would take to long to pitch,,, I prefer free standing tents,,,, also carry such a tent means less room on the bike for the little luxcurys like chair and tables and camp bed,,,no to my eye its to big,,, maybe its ok as a base tent..

You don’t understand because you’re close minded, not just a garage, sitting area, cooking area, out of the wind and rain, don’t have to park your bike in there. Good lord, think🤷‍♂️

there are the tents that go up like an umbrella... but I doubt it would be any use for bike travel due to weight and spaces inside if you'd like an area for your bike as well...

They normally come with the inner tent already in, and you leave it in. Don’t understand your comment, I can set mine up in less than 5 minutes in wind.

I can get my tent up in five minutes, no time-lapse photography needed. Why put a motorcycle in a tent anyway? They are generally fairly water-resistant. If you're that bothered about your bike getting wet, just take a lightweight cover! So many 'experts' on KZbin. The strings holding down your tent are 'guy' ropes, not 'guide' ropes. I wouldn't fancy my chances with this tent in a strong wind either. Not impressed. Ride safe. Love and peace.

In my opinion, it is not a good tent for a long roadtrip. Because, it is too big once folded and heavy, too long to set up and disassemble if like me you plan to assemble/disassemble every night, a bit expenssive too. The " garage " spot is useless and make it too complicated/heavy. If you need a shelter for the rain just bring a tarp, but in most campsite you won't need to. Why not if you plan to use it for a few days the same spot. But still, no offense but, your random cheapest 2 persons hiker tent in your local camping shop is far more practicle, small, light and very easy to use. Thx for the review.
