    KTM has offered one for quite a while and it's quite a bit cheaper.

    I'm always afraid the bike might topple over in the night due to wind or something, especially when parked on dirt/grass so I always park it up so if it does it won't come over the tent. With this tend if that happens you're screwed.

    As for Beemers, the tent is so expensive, they probably figured out only people rich enough to afford the new Beemers for touring can afford such a tent

    If the bike can be out in the rain when I'm riding it, it can be out in the rain at night, too.
    Id rather go for one of these:
    http://store.kamprite.com/catalog/Ka...C-p-16138.html

    Or this one loks better as it can be a chair, lounger, etc as well

    Be good to store all of the kegs of beer for the after match function...
    With the temperature of my exhaust after a ride, I will need a 2kg fire extinguisher!!
    By that time, the novelty has worn off and I am asleep, ga gaa...

    Both the KTM Bike Tent and Ténéré Expedition Tent are nice looking with plenty of space, but the Ténéré at 6.1 kg or KTM Tent at 7.25 kg that's some serious weight, let alone the massive 20 x 53 centimeter packed size, certainly not bike carting friendly. If they were a reasonable weight and pack down size they'd be great, but they're more suited to vehicle supported trips and this just seems like cheating to me, I prefer adventure riding in the sense of packing up your bike fully loaded, self-sufficient and setting off.

    I'm getting a cordura tent (get it?) for that tent. What a great idea.

    DR650 tent

    do you think they do a specific DR650 one with built in workbench/vice, tools, work lights etc

    (about time we had a bit of light hearted KLR v DR banter fire up)

    Now that's what I am talkin' about............should I ask what the vibrator is for or should I just fear the worst?
