CAMPING BASICS
If you are
going to a rally with ammenities such as a shower, restrooms, and food, you can most likely get by with the basics. A tent,
sleeping bag, inflatable sleeping pad (if you are over 35), a stool or chair, and your clothes & toiletries. If you are
heading out through the boonies, it's a different ball game. I am not going to insult anyone by telling you what
you should or shouldn't do or take, because it's your trip! Nobody knows your needs better than you! We are more than willing
to offer suggestions or give you our opinions, just contact us with any questions.
If
you are new to camping on a bike, we encourage you to look at as many websites and competitors of ours as possible. I hate
buying something only to see something I would have rather had later. Our gear was selected specifically for the average rally-going
biker to the hard-core cross country rider.
Hog Haven will
soon offer complete kits (of your choosing) at reduced prices. For example, I ride with our 2 man Chaos tent, inflatable sleeping
pad, sleeping bag, pillow, Jetboil cooking system, 2 folding stools, LED lantern, first aid kit, mess kit, shower, Tek towel,
toiletries, and it ALL fits into a 25"Long x 8" Diameter, waterproof bag! With room for 2 pairs of jeans, socks,
underwear, and t-shirts. You could purchase this whole kit for a discounted rate over buying the pieces individually! We just
have to nail down (how to build your kit) into our webstore.
We relaize
you have a choice! Our products are NOT the only products out there and we know it! We aim to be the value added leader in
quality motorcycle camping equipment!
