Carrying extra gas on the FZ10

I have been running the SW Motec rear aluminum rack for awhile with a quick release adapter for my Givi top case. Last weekend I came dangerously close to running out of gas in a long remote stretch without gas stations, so I ordered the Rotopax one gallon gas can and mount earlier this week and it was just delivered yesterday. My goal is to mount the rotopax mount to the SW Motec rack using the same quick release connectors that the Givi adapter uses. In the end it will look like the picture that hooli posted, but I only plan to use it on longer trips. I know it isn't the prettiest, but I would much rather have to deal with that over getting stuck somewhere with no cell service. I'll try to post some pics once I figure out the best way to install.

I almost always travel with friends (who get much better mileage than my MT-10), so I decided to just buy a cheap fuel transfer pump and jam it under the seat for emergencies.

That's a cool idea!!!!

I'm thinking of getting this acerbis rear tank and using bungees to hold it on to a luggage rack or my passenger seat

It holds almost 1.6 gallons so it would definitely be a nice safety net.

Whichever you want . But in this case, most likely to pump some in from another vehicle. However, there're 3 possible issues. First, the hose could ruin the delicate fuel sensor on bikes, so it has to be inserted very carefully. Second, that method works on gravity, so the fuel level on the 'donor' vehicle has to be higher than on the bike (eliminating most cars and trucks, at least without a can). And third, you can't know how much you're sucking, probably draining too much from a 'donor' bike. Bottom line for me on that solution is you'd be much better off paying for roadside assistance . It's quite cheap if added to your insurance policy, and at least you know you'll have gas for sure after waiting for them.
