We are going to the piute trails in utah next year and have started getted ready this yaer and we are going to st. anthonies. My question is my parents have ranchers so they can carry the gas and stuff when we go to utah we want to camp on the trails a few nights, so wht do desert racers put stuff in. I was thinking about some pvc contaners, like a few foot sections of large dia. tubing with a end cap and screw cap to put food, water, little stuff in. And I have seen little 1 liter jugs that go on handle bars and racks with velce on nice aluminum mounts, I saw them in dirwheels but dont remeber who makes them does anyone know, or have any other ideas?

you can get a six pack rack for your grab bar and you can fit a cooler or a can of gas in it

I would try that pvc idea. You could probably put 2 or three right behind your front bumper. If you have nerfs then you could put tons of them on there, and just bundle them together and tie em down to the nerfs.

hey dude...u ever thought of this.........BACKPACK.......if your going on a long journey...u take a backpack.....street bike riders have to do the same thing they dont have room in that lil *** trunk they have...so my friends take backpacks when they kno they are going to the store to pick up a few things....

thats what i did when i had the banshee....i welded up a rack that bolted right to my grab bar...it was great for carrying a gas can and a lunch box...and i could strap anything i wanted in it...

best part about it.....IT WAS FREE

Those waterjugs that go on the handlebars are called Enduro Jugs. I think Rocky Mountain sells them.
