[basic700]

For those of you who ride or have ridden in ontario, am i going to be running out of gas all the time? Stock fuel tank with no way to carry extra fuel on my sled

Where are you going to be riding?

How far can you go on a tank?

Depends on location.

 

[basic700]

almost 100 miles a tank, the light will be on telling me to feed it. Dubberville or Wawa idk for sure im not planning the trip im just riding along

Up there I would fill up at every gas station lol, but I have never ridden there.

You can find out where some of the gas stations here, go to Point of Interest and click Fuel.

I would be bringing gas with me that far north, you never know when places close or run out of fuel. It does happen, better safe than sorry. Many more gas stations farther south.

Basic, go to ontarioconditions.com and have a look in the North section, they say there will be open trail until April!

you could also post about gas.

If you have any specific question you there are a lot of local guys there.

It's very easy to carry an extra 5 or 10lts of gas on an XTX. What I did was removed the usless plastic housing over the tail light, move the taillight itself a little further back, and put the exhaust turn-out on.

Carrying a gas can on the back like that is easy, and I have a can on there fairly often.

I've also carried up to 25 liters on the sled by strapping cans to the running boards.

Getting 100 miles with the stock tank is quite the achievement, and I would never plan a trip based on getting that. For one thing, even if you can actually get 100 miles, you never know if you might get turned around a bit, and need 110 miles to actually make your destination. Or you might run into a bunch of fresh snow which will reduce your range. Carrying extra gas when up north just makes sense.

I have the trail tank and filled up well over 30L on some stops. 28L tank would have got me walking. I gased up 7 times in one day alone with the trail tank. Don't ask how many kms I did lol.

Just got back from doing a 4 day loop from North Bay - New Liskeard - Timmins - Sudbury - North Bay. Trails were groomed and fast. Lots of 50 - 80 miles per hour running. Had our distances messed up and ran my 2010 nytro XTX out of gas 6 miles from shining tree. 124 miles and it was empty. Mind you the 2010 Ski-doo Renegade 800 ran out of gas 300 feet before mine did. Oh well!

I bought the 1.75 gallon roto pax can for my Nytro. I'll post pics when i get it installed.

Use 160km or 100miles as a gauge.
