Nunz Posted May 23, 2023 Share Posted May 23, 2023 You can carry 4 quarts of oil under the seat of the Matryx, the other thing we’ve done on saddlebag trips when needing to carry more than that is put a gallon of oil in a knapsack and fasten it between the gas caddy and a linq bag behind it. We are able to run the straps around the linq back then use Rox straps to tighten it all down. I’ll see if I can find a pic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can also get a 4 litre jug in the small bag behind the seat I just all ways make sure I tape the lid on really well Are you saying you carry it in the container it comes with but then tape the lid? I'm always scared those containers won't hold up. Ive used the MER 30 oz fuel cans, but they are pricey and I don't like that the cap is horizontal when you store in the sled. Seems like it's just one user error away from making a big mess that way... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been doing it since I bought my first 850 in 2019 never had a problem it usual gets dumped after the first day . I don’t open it till it will all fit in the 2 sleds I guess that’s the benefit of a 850 doo your not long going though 4 litres of oil lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoney Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 When I ran the two smoke I did the same, bought the one litre containers, taped lids and waited until sled took full litre to use entire container - never had an issue. One litre containers also packed better too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
