Redverz Atacama Expedition Motorcycle Tent — Ivory
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.The Ivory colorway reflects heat rather than absorbing it — a practical advantage in desert and high-summer conditions.This is the tent you buy once.⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Paid for itself in a few nights. Bone dry in hard rain.”— Rob, 4-week US motorcycle tour
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.
What Riders Say
“I received the Atacama Expedition tent in July. I then took a 4-week motorcycle tour of 21 states. I spent an entire week in the Great Smoky Mountains each night in this tent. The fit and finish are astounding. It paid for itself in just a few nights as I didn't have to stay in motels. I have used this tent during a hard rain and no leaks, no drips, no errors.”
— Rob
“They laugh about the bike in the garage tent but then when it's raining, snowing or blowing out it's suddenly the most popular tent in the campground. I've had this particular tent for nearly a year now and I love how roomy it is, how I can stand up to change my clothes, the ventilation that prevents moisture buildup and how much space there is for storage.”
— Eric Hall
“Purchased this to encourage my wife to join me on longer moto trips. Not only did that work out wonderfully, but I'm using it on a regular basis when camping solo. Feels high quality, all the zippers are super smooth, and I stayed 3 nights in wind and rain without a drop penetrating the outer shell.”
— Joel
“I would venture to say there is not a better design for two adults that is comfortable. The level of detail in the design of the tent is clearly obvious. On top of it, the company takes pride in their product.”
— Aditya

Bigger is better
Just spent my first couple of nights away in my new Atacama Tent. I had not even taken it out of the bag since receiving it and not fitted the ground sheet. I was amazed on how easy it was to fit the ground sheet and put the tent up single handed. In the 3 days away I had 40 degrees Celsius temps and a full night of rain. The tent preformed amazingly and I am more than happy with my purchase. It’s amazing the size of the tent once it’s setup, I also got the 50ltr dry bag to keep it in. It’s amazing the size that it pacs down to, smaller than you would think for a tent this size. The only thing I would change is the size if the mozzie mesh. Should be slightly smaller to stop midgies. Well done Kevin for designing such a great tent.

Redverz Atacama expedition motorcycle tent
This is the one tent you need without any doubt. It is huge volume but packs away small enough to a manageable size to carry on your bike light weight but tuff.. Quality pegs, poles & worth every penny. Miles ahead of anything else. Additional Extra Ground sheets are worth the purchase but should of been included as standard.

5 1/2 Year Review
I have been using this tent for motorcycle camping trips around North America from Bike Rallies to National Parks and everything else that comes along . It has been through violent wind and rain storms in the mountains and dust/sand storms out west that have trashed other tents around me and this thing hands down is built like a tank and the best tent I have ever owned or ever used in over 30yrs of motorcycle camping. The room it offers being able to cook or hang out or whatever in foul weather and be comfortable is one of it's best features over all. The sleeping area fits a queen size air mattress with plenty of room to still be able to move arount it or stash more gear. The height is another big plus i'm 6'4 and this really works for me. It may not be the smallest or lightest but after using it you will find a way to make room for it. You get what you pay for and this tent is worth it for what it has to offer and to anyone looking for a tent for motorcycle camping or any type of camping I can't recommend this tent enough. Be Safe and Happy Adventuring!!!!

Taj Mahal
I called Redverz on short notice, asking them to expedite delivery of their Atacama Expedition Motorcycle tent for my trip to Sturgis, South Dakota. They did, and I used it during my 11 day round-trip to Sturgis from Mariposa, California. The first night was near Ely, Nevada, at Ward Mountain State Park. The set-up was intuitive, and quick. I felt like I was sleeping in the Taj Mahal, and it was comforting to have my Harley (the biggest model for 2020) in the tent with me. Thank you to Redverz for a superb home away from home!

Best tent ever!
I took my tent out camping last weekend where we had some heavy rains all night long. It maintained interior dryness 100%! Super high quality materials and design. You can tell they really put a lot of attention to the details. I twas easy to pitch and happens all in one effort with the tarp coming up with the tent. That's a great feature if it's lightly raining out....everything that needs to stay dry, does. I love the various ways you can configure the openings to promote airflow or warmth, shady seating or fully fortified for extreme weather. If I had one thing to change it would be to make a waterproof window in the sleeping bay so you can see out of it in heavy weather and not get claustrophobic. Maybe that will be the next upgrade? Regardless, this is the tent I've always wanted but never knew it....so glad I took the plunge and invested in it! thank you Redverz!

I find it easy as any back pack tent Ive ever owned , to set up and take down.
I’ve been solo mostly, but wife retires this coming year :). I’m very much attached to my tent, don’t like changes in my life much but just maybe I shop with you again :). I never use the garage for my bikes, but it’s SO very useful otherwise . I’ve only experienced a couple camps where the tent is too big to fit. These are national parks . As a solo adventurer and a GSA sidecar enthusiast these days, I have near zero issues packing a few home comfy items most 2 wheelers find difficult. The tent has traveled a lot of years on my backseat before I converted to sidecar life. My recent Death Valley trip was on my vintage airhead I’ve owned 45 years. Redverz was packed on my seat , it’s still two wheels:). I gotta cut this saga but the tent has served me very well a long long time and I find it easy as any back pack tent Ive ever owned , to set up and take down. It’s big indeed but my time in this game, I can break camp in short order . Set up too.

Boy Scout Camping
I just wanted to let you know how well your tent performed this past weekend. I was on a winter campout with my son and we were expecting heavy rains Saturday. The forecast lived up to its hype but so did my Atacama tent. Sleeping compartment stayed dry except for some condensation, the garage space also was pretty dry, a little water coming under the sides but nothing that was bothersome. I have had this tent for several years now and it's definitely the best I have owned. Thanks again for a great product!
