Hey,

 

I need a 5 or 6 gallon and a 1 gallon gas can. I also need something to mix my oil and gas. I just got my banshee today. The guy has the carbs drained out. What should I do before I ride it?

 

Thanks

I use a Maxima mix bottle to mix with. I put in the amount I need and put on the cap. When I'm ready to mix, I just pour into the jug and then the fuel. The cap is nice and you can keep it in there until you need it. Of course, I don't store oil in there, but if I need to transport a little bit for later use, it's way easy.

I use my ratio rite, and 5 or 6 gallon cans. I keep my race fuel stored in VP fuel jugs. Or, in a 55 gallon drum. Then, I have a 6 gallon can to mix oil and fuel in. I also have a slew of 5 gallon cans that I keep 94 octane in. I just use the ratio rite for 2.5 gallons, and dump it twice for a 5 gallon mix. Got to do it twice, but it's not a big deal........ Oh yea, FYI, I mix my fuel of VP C-12 50/50 with 94 octane pump fuel at 40:1 with Klotz Super Techniplate oil.

As far as gas cans, The VP jugs or similar ones are definately the way to go. They're not that much more in price than the normal gas can you buy at wal-mart, but they are DEFINATELY worth the money! After owning one, I don't think I could ever buy another cheap gas can.

The ratio rite cups are cheap to buy, simple and straight forward to use. I like the race style 5 gal jugs with the large screw cap and the 2 ft. weenie style spout. You never spill or drip putting gas in the bike and they will also put the fuel in faster. There about $25 though but well worth it.
