00:00For liter auxiliary fuel tank every long-distance rider needs voiceover script.
00:05Running out of fuel in the middle of nowhere is the kind of story you only tell once.
00:09I went digging for the best auxiliary fuel tank deals for long-distance riders,
00:14and honestly, the price spread surprised me. Same idea, for liters of spare fuel on your bike,
00:20but the cost goes from 8 bucks to 200. Let's go through them.
00:25First one, and this is the smart little one, a 1-liter auxiliary tank with a cut-off valve and
00:30a fuel hose included. The valve is the feature that matters here, because it means no dripping,
00:35no fumes, no fuel sitting in your hose when you close it off. It's small enough to strap to a
00:41rack
00:41or tuck in a pannier, and at $19.02 with almost 4,900 sold and a 4.5 rating, that's
00:47proven kit,
00:48not a gamble. Now if you ride a CRF250L, this next one is basically built for you.
00:55It's a 6-liter, 1.58-gallon reserve tank that fits the CRF250L, the Rally, and the ABS models from
01:022017 through 2020. That's real fitment, not a universal bracket and hope. It's the most expensive
01:09option at $219.39, but it's the only one here that installs like factory parts, and with over
01:164,600 sold at a 4-star average, CRF owners are clearly happy. Here's the one I'd actually buy.
01:234-liter auxiliary tank, PVC body, adjustable flow faucet, and a full meter of fuel hose in the box.
01:304-liters is the sweet spot, that's roughly 40-60 extra kilometers depending on your bike,
01:36which is exactly enough to reach the next station. And the price? $9.68.
01:44A 4.8 rating from almost 4,500 buyers. This is the best value in the whole list by a
01:50mile.
01:51If you want to spend even less, there's a universal 1-liter kit with a fuel hose and a balancing
01:57tool,
01:57and it's $8.03. $8. Yes, it's small, but it's rated a perfect 5 stars across 2,700 sales,
02:06and it'll get you off the shoulder and back to a pump. Keep it in a backpack or strap it
02:11to the frame,
02:12top it up before a long day, and forget about it. Skipped, B-roll cues plus on-screen price cards.
