Re: Lone Rider v Vango Turini 200 Adventure tents
I have the Lone Rider and love it. Got it off UKGSER for a couple hundred quid. Dead easy to get up and down, loadsa room to stand, sit, cook and sit in fact a really versatile bit of kit.

Re: Boots for motocamping?
I have Altberg Hogs but they now leak so got a pair of Ex. German Paratrooper boots for 45 quid and they are great. Not sold as water proof but so far they have been. Easily as good as Altberg.

Re: Yamaha Fazer 1000 2003 opinions
I bought one new in 2005. Hell of an engine, fast and pulled well. Did my first track day on it and it left a lot of the track bikes for dead on performance, it was even better after the suspension was set up by Mick Grant. Amongst the things i didn't like were: the rear brake was deadly as it would...
