not sure about the long range bit :-\,,,,  that's probably needed to drag the box a normal distance of 250klm  ::)

if the seats not as comfy as the tank is big,, you,d sure end up with a sore bum on a solo though

Looks like something that was used during the Blitzkrieg.

Hey Brett
what are you going to do with this 36litre tank when you get it? set a new endurance record by riding non stop till the tank is empty, or be like a mother ship so we can pull up alongside you and refuel on the go?  :P

That could work Tony but if it is going to make your ride uncomfortable better we use the courier.
