I like the idea, but what if you want to camp on the beach, an open expanse of rock, or anywhere else that doesn't have trees or posts? Where do you put all your gear? Seems more appropriate for hiking than motorcycling.
I'm digging this, but not the $400 price tag: The Ténéré Expedition Tent™ This one is probably lower quality, but I actually prefer the design, and it's half the price: The Biker Tent™ I like the idea of sheltering the motorcycle, too. I used to wheel my bike into motel rooms whenever possible. |

I posted the tenre tent a while back, the other biker tent looks cool, but with that big flat wall it will easily act as a sail and tip the bike. http://www.twowheelfix.com/showthrea...highlight=tent The hammok tents can be set up with 2 poles, a few lengths of rope and some stakes to stabilize it, there are easy instructions how to do this if you look for them. Done the hotel room parking lot too

Still not sold on stashing my gear, though... helmet, boots, etc. In a tent, it's sheltered and open to air out at the same time. Stuffing it all together in some bag to potentially hang outside in the rain... eh, stink. Also have to consider lack of privacy if I have neighbors. They might not appreciate seeing my bare ass changing clothes. |

$150+ for a freaking hammock is hard to swallow, though... |
