One day after mowing the grass I came back into the garage to find my gas can all swollen and wobbly... I had to manually vent it. It was sitting near the garage door and in the sun, but on a hot day in those saddle bags, I'd worry about the same effect.
You're spot on. I have a can with the same style spout. Bitch was all blown out and wobbly too.
