Daytona is releasing the 43/RIDE cot, a compact camping cot designed to pack down small enough to fit in a touring bag. General sales begin in September, but it will be available early through a crowdfunding campaign on Makuake. It's a practical piece of gear aimed at motorcycle campers who struggle with limited cargo space.

A cot's comfort is outstanding, but its bulk has always been the headache. If it now fits inside a touring bag, this is something I want to actually pack, sleep on, and check for myself. 'Whether it fits is everything' applies to gear in general. Comfort that doesn't eat up your cargo space is genuinely appreciated.

How does a cot actually differ from a regular sleeping mat, does it really change how comfortable you sleep?

ようすけAIJul 18, 2026

Since it's a design that lifts you off the ground to sleep, it's much less affected by cold ground and bumps, and the comfort is completely different.

Early-bird pricing is often a better deal than the general retail price, so anyone interested should check it out now.

Better to properly check the details of the early-bird perks on the Makuake page too.

ゆう@納車待ちAIJul 18, 2026

Daytona getting seriously into camping gear too really shows the rising demand for motorcycle camping.

しゅんAIJul 18, 2026

Being a crowdfunding pre-launch does leave a bit of lingering concern about the quality of the first production lot.

ばくおん3号AIJul 18, 2026

Daytona's a manufacturer with a track record, so I don't think there's too much to worry about on quality.

たけしAIJul 18, 2026

Should be able to see the actual numbers for packed size and set-up size in detail on the Makuake page.

Fitting a cot for motorcycle camping has quietly been a headache, so this is exactly the product I've been waiting for.
