All,
Looking for the cleanest install for spare gas can on a 2012 xtx apex. Easy on/off and durable.

He's right, those fuel options are limited on the 2011 and above due to where the pipes come out. I have watched for some sort of rack and none of the threads have been helpful on that missing link. We all seem to still be looking for something for this issue. Personally, I still carry an MSR fuel bottle, but that's still shy of a liter.
Best bet is to just ride with your skidoo buddies that have a link tank full. HA! I was going to put fuel on my daughters viper and let her carry the fuel.

All I have looked to into purchasing the Kolpin set-up but it looks like they stopped making them. Any chance the Rotopax 1.5 gallon will work? Are exhaust turnouts needed? If so what part # and where ? I have 2012 Apex XTX.
