I have used five other tents for motorcycle camping and this is my favorite. Basically, I wanted a good weather proof tent that was large enough for two people with their clothes and personal items but yet small enough to pack on a motorcycle.

This tent exceeded all my expectations. It is easy to set up, even for one person; it sheds rain and moderate wind (not yet used in high wind); it has plenty of room for two people and their gear (44 square feet); and it packs into a smaller space than other tents I have used in the past.

I especially like the single door and wedge shape. We sleep with our heads at the door end. If one person needs to get up at night, he or she can unzip the door and exit the tent without bothering the other person. We also place most of our gear near the door end where we can access it easily without having to enter the tent.

On one morning after a rainy night, I noticed a little condensation but not much. Otherwise, the tent seems perfect for my needs.
