The happiest time that you spent recently was just exploring the outdoors with your Can-Am Defender and no real set plan, just following the trail. Then, you ran out of fuel and you had to wait for three hours in the midday heat for a rescue. You did not realize just how far you had come and did not have back up fuel stored in a fuel pack mounted onto your Can-Am Defender. You’re not the first this has happened to and you won’t be the last. But you can be better prepared with one of our Can-Am Defender fuel packs and mounts here at Everything Can-Am Offroad. Our UTV fuel packs are safe. Our Can-Am Defender fuel packs and mounts are built with the off-road in mind so that they can handle the jarring and bumps along the way. Additionally, our Can-Am Defender fuel packs are completely sealed once closed so that you do not have to worry about leaks and spills. Choose from one of our Can-Am Defender fuel packs so you and your friends will never be stranded again.
If you’re planning a long ride, UTV camping trip, or simply want the peace of mind knowing that you won’t be stuck in the boonies with an empty tank of gas, having a spare fuel pack mounted on your Can-am Defender is definitely a good idea. And at Everything Can-Am Offroad, we’ve got the widest selection of Can-am Defender fuel packs and mounts. From Kolpin Powersports fuel packs to Rotopax gas cans and their respective mounting mechanisms, we’ve got the best equipment and accessories for toting that extra fuel to get you where you need to go. Depending on your specific machine, elevation, and ride style, you can expect to get anywhere from 90-130 miles out of a single tank of gas. And while this is more than enough for short afternoon jaunts, for longer stretches (especially those in the deep woods away from any gas stations), packing extra fuel in an external fuel tank is a smart move. And don’t make the mistake of getting an inferior fuel pack, as leakage is extremely dangerous. If you’re going to cheap out, do so on other aftermarket accessories!
Now, on to the Can-Am Defender fuel pack mounts that you see here. We carry a variety so that you can strap, tie down, and mount any kind of fuel pack you can imagine directly to your Can-Am Defender’s cargo bay or roll cage. These mounts are the pivotal connection between your fuel pack and Can-Am Defender and therefore are engineered to be very strong and to handle whatever the off-road throws at them. You can trust that when you choose one of our fuel pack mounts for your Can-Am Defender, you have a quality part for your machine. These fuel packs and mounts are also available for the Can-Am Defender MAX.
You might be wondering what kind of fuel you should be putting into your Can-Am Defender and how to go about storing this fuel. Unless it has a specific tune and build designed to use ethanol fuel, specifically the high 110 octane e85 fuel, none of the Can-Am vehicles have any requirement for any ethanol mix. In fact, ethanol has a much shorter storage life when used with everything from cars to yard maintenance equipment to chainsaws and other small engines. Ethanol is a biofuel to help displace our use of fossil fuels. A “green” filler. For the most part, ethanol fuel is fine. However, if it will sit for a month or longer, you should definitely add stabilizer to extend the shelf life of ethanol fuel or any Can-Am Defender fuel for that matter.
If you’re thinking about using premium fuel for your Can-Am Defender, think again. The Can-Am Defender manual says to use 87 octane so there is simply no need for premium. There are zero benefits to using premium fuel in the Can-Am Defender engine because it is not a high compression motor. As a matter of fact, some people have actually damaged their Can-Am Defender’s engine from using premium fuel. Whether it’s in a Kolpin gas can, a Rotobax fuel pack, or directly into the fuel tank of your Can-Am Defender, regular gas should work just fine for most riders.
Fuel packs are such an integral Can-Am Defender accessory and a must-have for long treks and overnight camping trips because you never want to run out of fuel while you’re far from home in the wilderness. Give yourself the freedom to fill up your Can-Am Defender on gas and extend your range no matter where you are. You can also be the responsible one that has extra Can-Am Defender fuel to loan your friends when their tanks run dry. Avoid embarrassing stalls and shut-downs with Can-Am Defender fuel packs from Everything Can-Am Offroad. The Can-Am Defender fuel packs we supply are available in various storage types and capacities so you can carry just enough for a top-off or as much for a full refill of your Can-Am Defender’s gas tank.
