I prefer my tent
It is 100 miles from where I live so it will be a nice ride most weekends.

How do you pack that on your Burgman? ?

Well I don't know yet how I'll pack it. It is still in storage at the dealer ☹
After one run out to the 5th wheel in the spring with my truck to stock up with food and clothes the rest of the time I can ride without baggage.
If we go on a little trip I have a small bag I can pack, I know how to pack light. The tent is small enough to fit under my seat. Oh yeah, and he has a tourpack and side bags on the Harley ?

but,,, you need all that room for carryin oil to refill the harley!

Actually he has great Harley, never had any oil problems or for that matter very few and far between problems.
It will not be that easy to keep up with him...it moves I love riding on the back of it, I get to nap.
Can you tell I'm partial to Harleys...but on the flip side, he can't wait to try out my new Burgman 650 Exec.

rjs987 - I read you post wrong lol, guess it is a little big to pack on the Burgman

I don't know about having any issues keeping up with a Harley... unless it's a V-Rod. The Burgman 650 is no slouch and can leave most bikes in the dust from a stop light, including all cruisers. Most Harleys I know of can get up to 110 mph max for a top end. The Burgman 650 has been proven to go faster.

I’ll look for a Starbucks Tent and we can build a new city in the woods.

It all depends on your style of camping. I've been using a inexpensive Coleman 2 man tent for years. But I always camp in state parks and rarely in inclement weather. I can get my tent, air mattress, pump, hatchet, and folding chair under my seat. I strap my dry bag and sleeping bag on the back seat. If I really need to carry more, I can use my soft sided Givi bags. I tease my wife that I can carry enough gear and clothes to never come back home. One thing that does make it easier is that I don't cook, so no cooking gear.

Luv em both…I’d have to put a Rain & Drain Fly on the suspended one.

awesome!!! if this branch is shakin , don't bother knoc.......

That is very much like the one I did get from Amazon.
I like it a lot and for me it is comfortable. Not all campers like this style of chair but I have found that most of those I camp with do.
