I bought a set of Givi side case racks from dduelin who had added a pair of tool tubes to the inside of the racks.
I figured a good use for them would be to use a couple of old MSR 33 oz. fuel bottles as a back up fuel supply.
I found I could use an Aquafina water bottle with the bottom cut off as a tall funnel.
I cut the remaining plastic rim from the cap off to keep it from getting lost in the tank.
One of the bottles isn't as round as the other which means the water bottle/funnel won't slide over it.
The new funnel fits over one the bottles and the two together slides easily into the tool tube. There is enough room under the cap for the cap to screw down completely.
Be sure to only fill the bottle up to the fill line which is where the top of the bottle starts to narrow towards the mouth.
