Redverz Atacama Expedition Motorcycle Tent — Green
The Atacama is a motorcycle expedition tent built for riders who go places.
Not a weekend warrior tent. Not a glamping setup. A purpose-built shelter designed around a full-size adventure tourer — panniers, luggage and all — that sets up solo in under five minutes and holds its shape when everything else is moving.
It's currently running in the Simpson Desert in Australia, through sub-Saharan Africa, across South America, and on routes through Europe and North America. Riders use it because it works. Because it's still working 14, 15, 16 years later. Because when the weather turns, it doesn't.
This is the tent you buy once.
The Garage
Two opposing J-doors open wide enough to ride a full-size adventure tourer straight in. Panniers on. No unloading in the rain. No gear left outside.
Standing headroom throughout. Use it as your living room, your workshop, your drying room. When the weather closes in, this is where you eat, plan, and wait it out.
It's not a vestibule. It's a room.
Sleeping Bay
Rectangular floor plan. Vertical walls. Enough space to sleep three, use cots for two, or spread out solo with room for gear.
Separate entry and exit doors mean two riders never have to climb over each other. Flow-through ventilation runs air from one end to the other — essential in heat.
Configurations
— 1 Up — full space to yourself. Gear stays inside. No compromises.
— 2 Up — queen-size footprint. Separate doors. Each rider has their own exit.
— 3 Up — tight but workable. Move gear to the garage bay.
Built for Real Weather
4000mm hydrostatic head on the fly. 10,000mm on the floor.
To put that in context: most camping tents rate between 1500–3000mm. The Atacama's floor rating is more than three times that — because when water pools around a tent in a storm, the floor is where it gets in.
Factory-sealed seams throughout. Bathtub floor construction. This isn't expedition-grade waterproofing as a marketing claim — it's what you need when the weather doesn't care about your schedule.
The Frame
Aircraft-grade aluminium poles, pre-bent to shape. The hoop design creates vertical inner walls — that's what gives you the headroom and the structural integrity in high winds.
Flexible enough to absorb gusts. Rigid enough to hold shape through the night. The frame is why this tent is still standing after 15 years of hard use in the hands of people who ask a lot of their gear.

Very Good Tent
The Redverz tent is a good one, we have a smaller back packing tent we used for several years but we were tired of crawling in and out and trying to get dressed in it. If you have room to haul this one you you will like it. We dont park our bikes in it but use the garage to sit in and with the garage foot print you keep things out of the dirt.

Cant ask for something better
Before riding a 5000k miles trip around Utah, Arizona, California, Nevada and Colorado I looked for 2 month and saw so many tents. When I found this one I asked to my self if was worse to spend so much money. Trust me is imposible to regret about it. Is so well design and perfect to mount it in all kind of weather. Super easy. I was happy that I bought the groundsheet (helps so badly for keeping your tent clean and is so easy to leave it on or take it before folding. The awning kit is really good to specially to hang out at your rest area.

Exceeded Expectations
I am a former Marine who researches every piece of kit I buy. I spend hours on forums, or reading the most recent motorcycle magazines in order to ensure my money supports the best product for me. This tent is exceptional. I went on a trip without practicing putting it up prior to embarking (I usually just slide into a bivy sack and rack out), and was able to set this thing up in the rain without an issue. The design is great. You can set it up in inclement weather which, if you lay it out properly, rain/snow will not get inside the sleeping quarters. I could use a few more pockets to place items (they have two decent pockets inside the tent), but I like having order inside my tent. My friends initially thought I was nuts to buy such a large tent, but once they realize that I am usually within 1-2lbs of their tents, BUT I get massive size to work on my bike, they ask right away where to buy one. I've noticed that Redverez now makes a one person tent. I don't tolerate people well, and usually travel alone, but I can say that the weight different between the one person and the 2-3 person isn't large enough to concern me (maybe if you are sub 500cc it might be a better idea to get the one person). If you are looking for a tent for your motorcycle adventure, please consider this one. Revzilla is still fantastic. I ordered with free shipping and received in 2 days.)

expsensive tent, well worth the price
I bought this tent for 2 person camping with my wife, she is not into camping at all but this tent made camping okay since their is alot of room inside the tent. Constructuon of the tent is top notch. It packs down small for its actually size. It is a LARGE tent though. Fits perfectly on my bumot r1200gs pannier lid. Its a win in the books for me

Be the envy of the campsite
This is my go tent regardless of how I got there. While it's intended for motorcycle travel, it's just so good I bring it in the truck too. Each time it's up someone inevitably asks me about. Features are amazing. It's built well and keeps you, and your gear, dry!

20 days in a tent
in 2015 I spent 20 riding in Europe. This tent was amazing. The great room in the front was great for preparing meals during rain and great for getting dressed. We had two Kermit chairs and a folding table with plenty of room. The sleeping space has plenty of room for two people. Over all it was easy to put up and easy to pack up.

Easy setup
Overall I like the tent, but only when traveling with others. When on the road alone there are plenty of tents that pack much smaller and weight much less. But I love the height and the privacy of the giant vestibule. As I get older, lying down in a small tent to get dressed in private kind of stinks. But with this tent that is no issue. I found it sets up easy, and stows away easy as well. Plenty of additional guide wires if it's really windy but not necessary every time. I have yet to ever park my bike inside, but that would be really nice in heavy rain, or perhaps when leaving a campsite unattended for a day hike. Seems well built and well thought out.

Great product!
Holy cow! I don't know why I didn't buy this tent sooner. This tent is awesome. Easily room for three adult-sized folks in the sleeping area and lots of gear storage in the 'porch'. It is so much nicer being able to stand up inside my tent to put on clothing/gear without having to bend over or lay down to do so. The tent is water proof and allows great air flow throughout the sleeping space. Set up and tear down takes about 10-15 minutes....but that was before coffee. I purchased both ground groundsheets (one for the sleeping area and one for the 'porch') and they both work effectively. I use this tent for motorcycle camping and although on the heavier side of tents available, it is worth the extra few pounds to not have to crawl around on my hands and knees. Definitely recommend this tent and would purchase it again.
