Fuel caddy in 2023

[Bertstopp]

Hey, first post.
Looking at the forum, alot of people recommend the fuel caddy thing from Yamaha, as a way of expanding fuel storage. Yamaha SMA-8GL73-CD-DY.
I rang the local dealer and apparently they stopped making them

Are there any other alternatives which could work without much modification?
Any tips appreciated!

Been on the lookout on ebay for a while, no luck!

I make a rack to mount above the exhaust.

Cool! Do you ship to Europe?

 

[hibshman25]

Yes, no problem to ship to you in Sweden. The store will not calculate shipping to Europe, but I can invoice you directly via paypal if you wish to make an order.

It’s not much, but I made a larger bag for the nose of the sled, so I can carry a quart/liter oil bottle filled with fuel. It might be worth an extra 3-4 miles, so hardly worth carrying.

I upgraded my nytro with a trail tank and it made it a totally different machine. Finally it could go big miles.

I have seen guys create mounts and put rotopax cans on the side.

If i were to do it again - Give these guys a call.
They make a ton of saddle bag systems for sleds - specifically a saddle bag that holds two 10l gas cans. I have seen it at the sled show and it is well made.
Hope this helps
