MOTOR TENT 1/3
Congratulations on purchasing the latest in motorcycle storage. The Motor Tent is designed to keep your ride safe from the elements for many years.
Now you don’t have to wait for your pipes to cool down before getting your bike under cover. The Motor Tent also gives you non-contact protection that eliminates scratches from covers grinding in dirt.
The Motor Tent comes partially assembled so it takes only minutes to complete. Start by checking the various components to familiarize yourself with the parts.
Step 1 - Parts check
On the right is a list of the individual parts. Make sure you have all the pieces.
Step 2 –Assemble the Frame
Begin by laying on their sides pointing outward - assembly A on your right and B on your left with the shortest tubes (G) pointing in front of you and ribs laying fanned out on the floor. Connect the H tube with angled end on upper rib using J,K & L fasteners. Then connect D. Next lift the assemblies with all ribs leaning on the A frame and connect C across the A frame. Install the rest of the top connectors (C) across the frame in the open position.

Step 3 –The Cover
The completed Frame should resemble the
diagram below.
Important remark: the way of assembling the medium and large sized motorcycle tents is slightly different from that of the small sized. Please refer to the red dotted line.
The cover M is installed when the frame is in the open position. Locate the rear of the tent (marked REAR on the inside end). Drape that end over the A frame so that the rear Velcro can be wrapped around the end round bar D.
Fold tent backwards over the A frame and wrap the next Velcro section around the next rib. There is no Velcro on top of the A frame. Continue attaching the Velcro sections until all the ribs are connected in the position shown below.
Step 4 –Securing the Frame
We recommend that you secure the frame to the ground using weights or bolts as appropriate.
Weights can be placed on the flat bar connected to the D plate. Bolts can be used to fasten the swivel plates of A & B to concrete or other firm surfaces.
A section of plywood is practical here to bolt the frame too if securing to concrete is an issue.
The Finished Look
Fold down and Storage The Motor Tent is designed to fold down for storage as needed. While the Motor Tent is still
fully assembled, remove the bolts for the A frame and take out the H tube.
The Motor Tent can then collapse closed pivoting on the A and B base assemblies. Tie the ribs together at the top and then you can easily move it around.
We wish you many years of quality motorcycle storage with your Motor Tent.
