Don't own one of these, but thought it was pretty cool

A Tent For You, Your Friend, and Your Motorcycle
Speaking of tents.. Does anyone have a nice tent that packs well on their bike? All the ones I have used folds and packs pretty long, 28 inches plus or so. Just wondering if anyone has found a tent that folds up and packs small. I just hate to have it hang over the seat 6 inches on both sides.
The Cabela's Hunter Bivouac tent packs to 5 1/2" X 16" and weighs 2 lb. 6 oz. Pretty incredible. It's only available in camo but that means you'll blend in with the campsite very nicely-:Flash:. I have an older generation Cabela's bivy tent and must say it's adequate in MOST conditions (like MOST tents). They aren't designed for roominess. Just functionality.
Reading the reviews it seems ok,but like most things in life,you get what you pay for.cheaper tents do tend to be adequate,whereas expedition tents if your camping for more than a couple of days tend to be excellent (and pricey!)
don't underestimate the idea so quick guys,
I've traveled south america for 3 months with a bike (mostly camped with my tent) and believe me there were numerous times I would've wished I could put my bike inside the tent - away from the eyes of strangers, pouring rain\snow and so and to just have the ability to do maintenance works after a long day inside the tent, protected from rain...
