Who needs a pump?  Can't she just hold onto the jerry can and funnel, and then just pour it into the bike when it runs low??

    :o you can do what GB would do .......put the missus into the sidecar and have her use a hand pump and pump the fuel over to the main tank.....lol.....

yes GB and say you did not think of that idea yet.......

You could do what I do, Just fill up at sixty miles and don't worry about trying to squeeze the last drop out.

Alternatively to using a fuel pump compatible with the bikes FI, you could just use a transfer fuel pump to transfer the fuel to the main tank.   Probably require having an additional line to the bike's tank, and maybe a valve....

    Sounds about right for a hack rig....Depending on the way the hack is designed, you might be able to put an aux. fuel cell behind the seat, but remember, you need to have a way to transfer the fuel. The injection system makes this a problem, unless you have a fuel cell with a compatible fuel pump in it.  Sounds like an interesting engineering problem.

Hello All, I have a great 1999 Drifter just recently bought. Its got a Champion Hack on it. I love the setup ! But I get less the 25 mpg. I need more storage . One person suggested a reserve tank between the hack and me, not bad. Do other have any suggestions??  I am all ears. I get about 100 mile to a tank, now.

Thx  Jim  Mac
