When I built it I wanted the ability to adjust it either way. The distance from the seat to the motor is the same as the OEM mount, so the motor didn't get farther away.
I left the battery box on to carry extra gas or even put the electric motor on for those times I want to use the electric motor. For extra gas I have three MSR fuel bottles that are for a back pack stove I have. They are aluminum bottles that were designed to pressurize for the stove. Two hold 20 oz and one is a 30oz. I carried two of the 20 oz ones just in case for this trip. Both of the 20's would give me a second tank of gas. I had never ran it that long so I was not sure how long a tank would last, still don't.
I like having the box on there to store the gas and a funnel tool kit things like that. This is the bottles I had, a safe way to store the gas. Ron
