The video was great lol. I do think that the on bike shelter would have worked a lot better on a trike, or if he would have made it more compact and put the slide out toward the handlebars to keep the center of gravity over the midpoint of the bike. There was a lot of unneeded headroom that was causing a lot of the wind issues.
Little pull behind motorcycle campers have been around for a while too.
all these videos are super fun. i was legit kinda scared for ari in them crosswinds. ive ridden in some bad crosswinds in WY with no sail, must have been genuinely terrifying. what a trooper.
i want Ryan F9 to do a video with them
A collaboration with F9 has so much potential for sure!
ya it would be a real top gear vibe i think for sure. they are all such good riders too
I don’t really get why anyone would do this to their bikes. They aren’t built to tow things. Also that one on the gold wing or whatever it is is so suss, like pretty sure you’d get looked at sideways by the cops in most places.
Not sure if you read the article or watched the video (it is long at 45 minutes) but these two do silly, impractical things on motorcycles, they are kinda like Top Gear but on motor bikes. So you are indeed right it is not something anyone should really do on their bikes, his final paragraph sums it up pretty well.
That said, considering all of the compromises we made in the motorcycling experience, a tent that weighs a couple of pounds and drops easily into a backpack or saddlebag suddenly doesn’t sound so bad. As long as you’re comfortable sleeping on the ground, like an animal. Which, if you build your own motorcycle motorhome, you might end up doing anyway.
