Has any tried the Reda gas can? Will it fit in the interstate saddle bags? Thanks

Yes, I have one. It fits the saddlebags just fine. I usually carry it when traveling; the bag is full of other things, so it doesn't move at all. It is sealed very well, never had a spill or even the smell of gas in the saddlebag.

I have two and they fit inside my Champion Sidecar bags. No leaks or smells. Does make me somewhat nervous though on a hot summer day.

I carried it to & from Eureka Springs Inzane. Riding through Missouri, it was 108° on the highway. No issues. And, it was in a black saddlebag with the sun beating down on it. |

I don't see anyway that it would even be held in place towards the front because of the "roundness" of the beetles. Here are the specs, from Reda's website: http://www.reda-innovations.com/#!reda-gas-can-tech-button/c24eh |
