I'd need an ADV model if I get into this shit. LOL 170-210 per tank is not enough. Too much wasted time in the pits.

I would probably just go with a bigger aftermarket tank. Only use it for shit like this and put back the OEM when I am not needing it.

While I understand the need for an aux fuel cell for stuff like this, my gas tank now outlasts my bladder anyway and a gas station is a good place to stop, pee and go.

Even a 5 gal plastic fuel cell would work

I started getting pissed off on my trip. Even with my constant supply of water from my camelbak, I could of did around 300 miles without stopping for a lot of spots. Having that amount of gas would of made me worry less about some of my routes too.

There are a few hard mount examples, but they almost all replace the rear seat. I figure its OK because you prolly wont have a passeneger on a long trip like this
