Will this fit in our F6B's saddlebag as intended?

Thanks for that. I never measured my left bag.... only the right bag.

I think my left one is slightly lower than my right one.....

Why would I want something explosive at the rear end of the bike...... just sayin. Quite a few accidents are people hitting someone in the back.

I think he stated why he wanted it....not if you wanted one. This is the place to get the answer he was seeking.

I carry a gas can on my bike, but it is empty. Just can't see having a gallon of gas sloshing around back there in an unvented space. But I do like the idea of having a can in case someone runs out of gas. I use this one. It is a single use, cardboard with a plastic spout. Kind of reminds me a bit of a milk carton. about an inch thick and maybe 14 inches long.

If I get rear ended that hard; I think that one gallon gas jug back there would be the least of my worries... and doubtful it'll detonate/explode like munitions would.

I have NEVER seen a disposable gas can/carton/jug such as that before... that is pretty

Why mess with gas cans at all, I keep this in my saddle bag, One siphon and a empty oil quart. If a bike runs out of gas you can always get a little from the next bike. A quart ought to be good for almost ten miles.

Great idea!

Another option I've used for years is to get a simple camping fuel cylinder from an outdoors store. No issues dealing with bulky containers and odd shapes. Then just carry a few disposable fast funnels to avoid spillage and you're good to go.

Both good, alternative options as well

Call me weird... but I am just fixated on that unorthodox shape of the Reda Gas can and how it's "supposed" to fit into the unusually proportioned rear area of the F6B's saddlebag. I guess it's sort of the "minimalist" coming out of me... I want to use ALL of that abstract rear area of the saddlebag
