You know what I wish? I wish I could purchase some "old skool" ones without the CARB compliance crap on them. Trying to hold that lever down and pour...##$$%^. The VP ones are too tall to fit in the box on my trailer tongue.

I have the white round vented vp can and absolutely love it. Stick the hose in the tank, open the vent half way and it pours out pretty quick. The only thing I can think of that might be faster is a dry break

Check in with the NESBA parts guru's they sell them. Ask for a VP fuel jug.

I had two of the VP round fuel cans at one point and I wasn't a fan of holding 5 gallons while filling up. Normally I run a session with minimal fuel in the tank, so I just add a gallon or so for every session. I bought one of these and it's been very nice:



It holds 14 gallons of fuel and is easy to move around. It just doesn't flow fast enough. I took off the syphon/pump and hooked up a garden hose and it flows really fast now. It has a 1/4 turn valve on the outlet which starts and stops the flow. I just need to place it on my tailgate to use gravity to start the flow. I use a little 2 gallon jug to fill the bike.

If you go with a 5-gallon jug, I highly recommend finding one with two handles built into it. It makes holding the jug so much easier when it starts getting about half full. I also recommend getting the square over the round. It's easier to secure a square jug against the wall as opposed to a round one.
