Default Got my Rotopax!

The UPS man showed up with my new rotopax cans/mounts today! Got them mounted on my front cargo and they look great. Hanging on to my 3.2 gallon fuel pack as well and will attach it on top of them when I'm out on really extended rides. Many thanks to Jason at rotopax for the awesome deal:-)

You might want to add some straps to protect the hinges on the storage box from the weight of the cans.

Check out this thread - there are a bunch of photos on mounting the cans, and I followed what chuck showed for the straps - they work great.

Thanks MickJP! Saw that thread the other day and have been pondering it ever since. Honestly don't know why Popo hasn't done something like that. Seen a lot of people that broke them cuz they flipped the lid open and snapped it(then wonder why the dealer won't cover it under warranty). Probably going to have at it this morning after I get my kiddle off to school.

How much extra fuel does that let you carry in the pic, without your other 3.2 gal. fuel pak?
Looks great.........Now you can go about 150 miles between fill-ups ...correct?
....Caper.........
