Motorcycle Campers

For what they want for a pop up tent camper you can stay in a lot of motels and be more comfortable. Not to mention cover more ground because you just walk in and out the door as opposed to set up and break down. Also, when I travel, part of what I want to experience is the roads and dragging a trailer (IMO) diminishes that. The final straw for me is what some campgrounds want for night of grass space with no electricity.
When I'm looking to travel on the cheap I go back out by the interstate and find a Lowes or Home Depot that has sheds on display in the lot (Google maps and streetview usually confirms this). A good meal, wait til they close, ride my scoot inside, shut the doors and lay out my bed roll. I roll out in the morning 50-80 bucks richer.

In thinking about it, I guess it's a bit unethical. I started doing it years ago when I was on a budget traveling around the country. Before that, I was a graveyard or tree line in between the interstate kind of guy for budget, on the move accommodations. Reading some of the responses has made me think about the practice.
Back to the campers. Here's where a camper would suit me: I'd like one for places that are a days ride or less where I intended to stay 2 or more days and ride the area. That way I'd only be strapped hauling the thing to and from and I'd only have one set up and one break down. I used to camp at a motorcycle only campground down in Cruso, NC but I threw my tent away when they got camping cabins
