South America fuel options and a 14l Tank
Hi
I have a 2001 c model KLR with a 14l. I am currently running about 20km per litre sometimes even 22. I will be doing a 6 month around South America trip in 2015 and am having a look at tank options.
I can get a 17l acerbis tank for my bike, however I am not sure if it is worth the expense for just 3l.
Does anyone know the fuel situation in S America, will I really need a larger tank or should I just take a jerry can with for the legs that offer fewer fuel options?
I bought a larger safari tank for my DRZ400 when I went across Siberia and Mongolia. The tank did not sit well and I was constantly needed to make adjustments to it, I also did not need the extra fuel as the DRZ was unbelievably light on gas. I don’t want to make the same mistake twice.
Any advice?
cheers
