Great info, thanks! I'll probably just go with the IMS, then.I'll add , I have had a dream to ride across Australia some day, then I want the 5 gal tank, in the stock tank location. PLUS SOME GAS...
Everyday use, the 3g is about perfect. P
lus I can pack a + 2.75g in a rear rack , so 5.75G in total. I have a pic for this, but not on this particular computer...
Ping me if you want a pic....
Since you still have the stock tank installed, would you take some measurements so I can compare it with the 20L Nomad?
I'm a little surprised that the Nomad site doesn't provide some measurements for shoppers to compare the stock, 15L, and 20L tanks. I know the Nomads take up more space than OE, but I suspect it looks worse in photos than it really is
Nice pictures. That looks like a lot of fun!
Riding in Utah on an Everide adventure rally. There’s a guy on a T7, two dudes on KTM 890s, Everide himself on a DRZ, and me in the 450L.
The first day was well groomed wide forest roads and pavement. Yesterday we got into some technical double track. One of the guys on the 890 commented that I was in my element yesterday. And that was true until we hit pavement. DOT knobbies aren’t the most confidence inspiring thing for high speed canyon carving!
I was following and don’t have tracks for it. It was an Everide adventure rally and he doesn’t publish his routes because he doesn’t want them to get too over used. I completely understand.post up your GPX track or the roads you rode. looking good
That was my first time in Utah. I'm sure that compared to the heat in TX, everywhere in Utah is a relief! I didn't think it was too hot in St. George, which was probably lowest elevation we got into there. But yeah, whenever I go back, I'll try to park the camper somewhere between Panguitch and Teasedale.Too bad about the trip being cut short, but at least it was a good outcome.
Have you spent time in Utah in the spring or fall? Generally great weather, without the heat. In the summer, you can still get some relief from the heat if you base camp high in the mountains.
