I was just wondering how long a full tank lasts some of you. It seems mine goes fairly quickly within like 3-4 hours of hard riding. When I say hard, I mean hanging with Chris Bithell (GNCC Pro) and two semi-pros all day.

Depends on how hard i ride 2-3 maby more.

On long rides with a stock engines and keeping it at 50 mph or under and keeping off the rev limit we can get about 75 miles.

Do they make a bigger tank for our quads? If not, has anyone figured out how to mount a spare gas can?

Krandall

A few companies, IMS being one of them didn't want to do one do to the fuel pump.. Costs woudl be to high. :(

98% of north americans that hit the ditch say "oh shit", the other 2% are from saskatchewan and say "hold my beer and watch this"

But I think these are going to be drag cells only (limited gas supply)
