Unlike plastic tents, canvas allows small moisture particles from breath & sweat to escape directly through the tent fabric. Keeping you dry and comfortable in any environment also eliminating the need for inner and outer tents.

WHATS INCLUDED IN THE TOUCAN CAMPING SYSTEM...
STAY CONNECTED
The extra long canvas wing attaches to any motorcycle keeping the seat dry while also providing a shelter for your riding apparel. No more waking up worried about your motorcycle. You are literally connected to it.
KEEP YOUR COOL
The Toucan has two doors and two windows. These all have a fly screen and canvas layer so you can configure the openings to suit the weather conditions. We recommend having just the fly screen zipped up. This creates a fantastic four-way cross breeze for maximum ventilation. You can now be at one with your bike under the stars.
EVERYTHING HAS IT’S PLACE
The beauty of the Toucan is that all of your camping gear is together in one neat roll. All of the poles and pegs are stored in the reinforced pvc pole pouch. This keeps the more fragile elements of the system protected in the centre of the roll.
SLEEP EASY
Our high density foam mattress gives superior comfort and longevity, compared to inflatable alternatives. The cover and sleeping bag are completely removable, so you can throw it all in the washing machine.
MOTORCYCLE SPECIFIC
Is the Toucan the first ever tent with a helmet hook? We’re not certain, but it sure is handy. We have hooks on both ends (under the beaks) to keep your helmet dry, safe and hidden from passers by.

Why Canvas?
Better Breathability
Increased Waterproofing
Heavy rains cause the cotton canvas fibres to swell, further tightening the weave in wet conditions, keeping the water outside while you stay dry inside. Wingman Of The Road’s canvas is pre-treated so it is quick-drying and won’t retain water when you are ready to pack up and hit the road.
Lots of Ventilation
In addition to the natural breathability of cotton canvas, Wingman Of The Road tents are equipped with large mesh-covered entry points and windows. Customisable ventilation allows you to fine-tune your airflow to match the weather in seconds. If you have ever woken up in a plastic tent feeling damp – you have been a victim of insufficient ventilation and breathability.
Keeps you warm
Cotton is a poor conductor which makes it a better insulator than plastic keeping you warm. No problem having it near your hot exhaust after a long ride. Plastic tents melt and burn easily making them dangerous to set up close to a hot bike.
Unbeatable Durability
Tents made from cotton canvas are tough, rip-resistant, and repairable. A properly maintained canvas tent can hold up to decades of use. Rips and tears from falling branches or extreme winds can be sewn up by hand with a simple needle and thread. Ripping and tearing easily, synthetic tent fabric is nearly impossible to repair. Any damage can result in a ruined camping trip and require a total tent replacement.
Working with nature, not against it
Using natural materials in earth tone colours as apposed to synthetic materials in fluorescent colours. You will effortlessly blend into your surroundings.
