hario Posted November 27, 2017 Report Share Posted November 27, 2017 im sick of splashing petrol around from a cheap can like a chump, and was wondering if there is a decent product out there that suits trials bikes. I know the enduro/mx crowd are pretty well covered in this respect So, im wondering what everyone else uses, perhaps there's a particularly good fuel can out there?

trapezeartist Posted November 27, 2017 Report Share Posted November 27, 2017 I don't like the cheapo plastic cans either, so I bought one of these: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/5L-MILITARY-GREEN-METAL-JERRY-PETROL-CAN-5-Litre-with-Spout-Funnel-Hose/201562079745?_trkparms=aid%3D555019%26algo%3DPL.BANDIT%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20151016114640%26meid%3Df097c333111243cebd7b48783edadfa1%26pid%3D100507%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D1%26&_trksid=p2045573.c100507.m3226 There are loads of people selling them on ebay. I just picked this one out at random to show you, but I think I paid about £15 for can + spout. It's a proper job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bultobill Posted November 27, 2017 Report Share Posted November 27, 2017 Stihl (the chainsaw people) make a nice no spill fuel spout that works really well when you press it on top of the tank the fuel flows as soon as you lift off it stops ,might be worth a look? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike64 Posted November 27, 2017 Report Share Posted November 27, 2017 There is also a Husquavana spout which fits the Aspen 'low ethanol' cans https://www.worldofpower.co.uk/husqvarna-fuel-spout-for-husqvarna-petrol-can.html?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIiKKHx7_f1wIVzbvtCh1kwgLbEAQYBSABEgLlufD_BwE 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pschrauber Posted November 28, 2017 Report Share Posted November 28, 2017 Using Fuelfriend cans for trial hiking in the mountains they fit very well in the backpack. From 0,5l to 1,5l also 2l and 5l are available, very good quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
