Reda Gas Can

[Gas Man]

I'm telling you it's a real nice can. I'm not sure if it's needed, for the reason like Marko says... my bike holds 6 gallons and will go 175-225 per tank. But it fits nicely.

Niche market? It's HD, it's not exactly a small market. Especially with the bagger craze.

Yeah, but how many baggers go to far off crazy places that need extra tanks? There is a reason adv/DS bikes carry em. Because we go off road away from civilization. You guys ride highways. Needing extra fuel for a bagger is a niche market.

I have something very similar to that, that I borrowed from a friend and never returned it. Once its flipped upside down, you twist the nozzle to unlock it, and then pull up toward you to open the valve. 1 gallon too.

Totally a niche market. Really, how many Harleys (even baggers) go further than a poker run or the local bar? Out of those, how many go for multi day multi state trips? And out of those how many go on trips where they need to go further than their bike will take will take them between gas stops?

Even you aren't going anywhere that you wont see a gas station every 25 miles on this trip.

I reiterate my point, its a niche market

Hate to tell you, but on roadtrips there are more Harley's distance riding than anything else... seriously.

And how many of those need extra tanks though? None

Only the ones that forget to stop.

That's inertia rather than rider choice - all that chrome is hard to stop

None but I there are still more of them with ideas and money than you may realize.

That's how it seems to work.

i probably wouldn't use it on a motorcycle but could be interesting for the quads.

I will let you know, even if I fill it and only test it.

We'll never convince these boys.

I can assure you this much. Running out of gas, if it happens, only happens once in someones lifetime. Pushing a bike sucks.
