I'm going to take my Grom on some day trips, and maybe even weekend trips around North Ga and Tn so I figured a little extra fuel couldn't hurt just in case. I got bored at work and started playing around with a 30oz MSR bottle and some odds and ends I had laying around the shop. I think my final product came out alright.
A 30oz fuel bottle should give me about 20-25 miles of range in case I run low in the middle of nowhere.

Total cost of the project was $20 for the bottle (from REI) and and about 2 bucks in hose clamps. It took me about 20 minutes.

That is pretty cool. And generally speaking, it's a safe bet that I havent heard of anything bike-related because I've been a motorcyclist for 15 days/850 miles as of right now.

Oh, then I guess it's safe to assume you have never ridden one of these....

You couldnt pay to get on that thing. Imagine if you had to emergency-brake

Did you do that on purpose? What the hell am I looking at? How did you get out of that situation? Is your beanbag still intact?

I like the bottle its a good idea and a beautifully executed solution.

Still the range of a grom should be 150 miles. If you cant find a gas station in that time you did something wrong!
