420 RACING Posted March 31, 2004 Report Posted March 31, 2004 WONDERING WHAT YOU BANSHEE GUYS/GALS DO ON THOSE LONG TRAIL RIDES!!! IS IT WORTH IT TO GET A XTRA CAPACITY TANK OR PLAY CHEMIST AT THE GAS PUMP, OR SIX PACK RACK WITH PRE-MIX GAS? THANKS JUST WONDERING HOW MOST OF YOU GUYS/GALS DO IT. PLANNING SOME RIDING IN THE UPPER PENINSULA OF MICHIGAN, WHERE THERE IS VERY RARELY GAS WITHIN 40-60 MILES. THANKS FOR YOUR HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quote
. Posted March 31, 2004 Report Posted March 31, 2004 I've been riding the Hatfield-McCoy trails for the last 2 years with 2 1/2 gallons strapped to my back in a backpack. I've got a helmetcamera for this year so I broke down and got an IMS tank. I should be good to go for quite a long ride now. And all I have to do is carry premix measured out for 5 gallons now and hit the pumps up at either end of the trailheads. It'll make things sooooo much easier. Quote
frocashmoney24 Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 the ims tank rocks for long rides, the only downside is that you have to cut ur plastic, but it beats the hell out of carring a bunch of gas with you Quote
scotts96fast Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 I have a Clark fuel tank 5.6 gallons.I like the fit alot better than the IMS.Also Clark has the air fins in the tank just like the stock covers.I also carry 2.5 gallons in the six pack rack.I can go 90 miles depending on how I ride.

bigwill Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 I have the IMS tank,mileage is about 60 per tank of semi-hard riding. Riding range is greatly extended with this tank-problem is I am the only 2-stroke that can hang with the 4-stroke in a long trail ride. Quote
421stroker Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 Can you use a billet gas cap with the clarke tank? Quote
boonman Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 Not sure. I will check to see if my stocker fits my tank. if it does, that means billet cap for IMS!!!!!!! And lose the caps man. it's annoying... I love my IMS tank. It's the shizzle.... Quote
