I’ve seen a few posts with those gas bottles and I have it saved in my Amazon list, I think I’m going to have to get one and carry it.

Amazon sells a few different fuel bottles:

I wanted to have a stove do double-duty. Especially when it came to fuel. I have the MSR Whisperlight International stove. I carry 2 fuel canisters (30oz ea). I had one back when I was backpacking and it never let me down, but sold it when I left Colorado for the midwest where camping just didnt hold up to the Rockies.

It will use Unleaded fuel. As will the bike. So, in case I get stuck somewhere with an empty bike, I can use the stove fuel to get me another 40+ miles to a gas station where I can refuel everything.I have never had any issue with the stove heating water or making soup or rice or anything else, and the burn rate on the gasoline is fairly good, I didnt even use half a tank all year last year camping.

MSR Fuel Canisters

No matter what, it will come down to preference. Jet Boil works great, but it is quite a bit larger and you have to have special fuel canisters and all. The MSR is just what I happen to like the best and suits my needs.

u/ObsidianOne · 3 pointsr/CalamariRaceTeam

Yeah, that was a bit cunty, my bad.

If you're going to do it (wouldn't recommend it), but at least look into a better container. These are for a different kind of fuel, but it's aluminum and apparently a lot of people use them for gas.

I bought this low brow custom mini gas can holder that has two Velcro straps to mount it on the forks or part of the frame of a bike. I am only using one in the middle and looped it through the helmet hook thing and tightened the Velcro around it. Be warned though, the Velcro has rubbed off part of the paint on the fairing it rests on due to friction of it moving when the bike is moving. So I put two clear rubber stubs that prevent contact of the Velcro with the fairing which seems to help but the paint in that area is already messed up now. Lol and I get around 5-10 extra miles, which is usually more than enough to get my to the next closest gas station, at least where I live.
Here’s a link to the mount:

And the fuel bottle, I bought the 30oz

Zip tie it to your bike if you're not the kind to ride with saddlebags/backpack to put it in

I've used it multiple times for myself and others, a quarter gallon is enough to get you to the nearest station unless you REALLY fucked up, even if you only get 30 mpg it's still >7 miles of fuel, double that for a 250 or so.

This little feller has saved me half a dozen times and stranded travelers on the side of the road at least twice as much. You've got no excuse with those saddle bags. Pick one up and fill it up for a buck and forget about it. Boy scout shops will have one for about the same price if you don't want to wait for shipping.

u/USSDef1ant · 2 pointsr/motorcycles

No, buy one of these for the backpack/saddlebags/whatever

u/Those_anarchopunks · 2 pointsr/motorcycles

I have a couple of these.

They don't hold a ton, but they are relatively cheap and stand up to abuse well.

There are a few things you can do. (Source: I have a bike with a small tank, only about 100 mi/160 km range, and was planning on taking some long trips before it died on me.)

  • Something like this is a bit pricey by the time you install it over your passenger seat, but 5 gallons will take you a long way....
  • The cheaper route is something like this 30 oz. MSR fuel bottle. That's fairly tiny — 30 oz. (probably American ones) ~= 887 mL ~= 0.2 gal Imp — but if you get, say, 40 mpg like my bike did (~35 mpUSgal), that's 8 miles, which is better than some alternatives. And you can always buy more than one.
  • The even-cheaper route is to just buy a standard plastic jerry can that'll hold 1 or 2 gallons. But unless your bike has a good rack, securing it properly can be a bitch. And they're a tad more likely to leak.

    Have a great ride! I gotta get me a new bike....
u/fritzwilliam-grant · 2 pointsr/motorcycles

If you prefer ultralight like me, then this setup works.

•Hammock (I use a Hennessy Hammock)

•A couple of spare fuel bottles such as the MSR ones MSR Fuel Bottle

•At least 3 liters of water strapped on somewhere. If its real hot then might want to strap on a camel back that way you can hydrate while you ride.

•A stash food in somewhere (Almonds are great for this)

•Tool kit, I wouldn't bother buying a tool kit. You should buy a pouch and tailor the tools you will need according to your bike, don't carry tools that won't even fit your bike.)

•Ditch cotton, its a horrible fabric for the outdoors. Go regular wool or if you don't like the "Itch" factor some complain about, then get merino wool.

There are more, I'll update later.

•Don't wear short sleeves whatever you do, it fatigues you more than you can imagine when your going off of a 1,000mile a day ride. If possible get a jacket that ventilates but also blocks to wind off you.

•Full Face, a must really. Too many advantages over a half shell and the like.... wind protection, decreased noise, and added protection in the case of a fall.

•Ear Plugs, Never 50+ miles without them.

•Not really a piece of gear, but a tip for when you are in a hotel. Ask for a room on the 1st floor and pull your bike up RIGHT NEXT to the door. Lock the wheel and take your gear off it. Probably the best way of making sure no one messes with your bike during the night.

•The best way to combat rain really is to get a waterproof top/bottom,water resistant boots, full face helmet, decent gloves.

Yep! The Nightster has a "king sportster" tank, 3.3 gallons.

It looks just like the 2.2 gallon peanut on the 48, but it's wider and buys you over a gallon in fuel (and almost another 50 miles of range).

It's a good compromise between the standard peanut, which looks amazing but has tiny range, and the "Custom" Sportster tank which holds 4 gallons but looks dorky.

If you get some sort of luggage or a sissy bar, you can attach one of these - just in case:

https://www.amazon.com/MSR-MSRFUELBOTT-Fuel-Bottle/dp/B0015I0GE6?th=1&psc=1

You can count on having a little under 150 miles worth of usable range - a little over 2 hours between fuel stops. To be honest, I find stopping every 2 hours to stretch nice, but some people need the larger tank because they only want to stop every 3 hours or more.

Totally up to you how quick of a pace you want to keep up while touring, it really only takes 5 minutes to fuel up, so it's not THAT big of a deal.

I knew if it didn't work this time I was going to be stranded, but that was because I was specifically running it to reserve. Normally I fill up after 100 miles just to be on the safe side. For now, I think I'm going to order to MSR bottles and mount them inside a couple of waterproof manual canisters that will fit 30oz MSRs.

Personally, I just grabbed a 30 Oz MSR bottle. I would be actively searching for stations with ~25 miles left in my tank, and I figured this would be enough to limp me along if I ever cut it way too close. It's also very easy to pack.

You have clearly planned your trip much more than I did, considering I decided about 30 minutes before I left with no clear route, so I think it would be pretty easy to figure out available gas stations given your route.
