Thought I would start a thread dedicated to the accessories that sounded good at the time but after using them realised didn't really suit my needs! And the reasons why .
Be aware that others may love these items that make their trips more enjoyable so play nice!
To start off my awning is a pain and I'm sorry I ever purchased one. Going to put it on my camper instead why?
It's heavy.
Possibly only been used 6 times in the last 40,000 touring km's .
It's to small when raining.
Never enough shadow when sunny
Used to use a freedom tent tarp that covered a bigger area for rain.
Cost a fortune in extra fuel to lug around.
Always worried I will take it out on a tree on tight tracks.
So there you go!
Hopefully the future posts will help others considering the pros and cons of purchasing accessories!
