We carry extra pre-mixed gas in a motor oil bottle in the handle bar tool bag.

Bean borritos!!!! Some guys have used a water bottle. Or some just carry extra oil and stop at the gas station when you need more. Are you going more then a full tank will last. That would hurt my buttox. : )

You don't want it to explode. Make sure it has a way to relieve excess pressure. A soda bottle may eventually burst and make a good day real bad quickly.

IMHO

Not to worry.... I always squeeze the extra air out of the bottle before I cap it!

& besides, it wouldn't explode into a fireball... It would just leak!

Saddlebags will carry 1 gal on each side. Sometimes I carry premix in a small oil container.

At your local hobby shop they should have a fuel bottle made for the little rc gas cars. It is a plastic squeeze bottle with an aluminum spout and rubber cap. I always ride with a camel back type back pack and I put this bottle in there in the upright position.

Make sure you tell them it's for GAS not NITRO FUEL. I don't know if it's all gas proof.
