ROTOPAX

Rotopax Fuel Containers, Water Packs and Storage Packs

Rotopax is a small line, 14 listings in all, built around containers for carrying extra fuel, water or gear on a bike, sled or side-by-side. Every one is filed under Misc. Accessories for motorcycles, UTVs and ATVs and snowmobiles, so one set of listings covers all three.

According to the company's about page, RotopaX Legacy LLC was founded in 2007 by a group of outdoor and power-sport enthusiasts, describes itself as family-built, and says its products are made in the United States.

Fuel containers

Five sizes, all titled CARB and sold by capacity: the 1-gallon RX-1G, the 1.75-gallon RX-1.75G, the 2-gallon RX-2G, the 3-gallon RX-3G and the 4-gallon RX-4G.

Water packs and storage packs

Water comes in three sizes: the 1-gallon RX-1W at 14x10x4 inches, the 1.75-gallon RX-1.75W and the 2-gallon RX-2W. For dry gear there are two 2-gallon storage packs measuring 19x14x4 inches, one black (RX-2S) and one orange (RX-OS).

Rollpax

Rollpax is the 1.5-gallon version, listed in fuel and water form and by mount size. The fuel versions are the 1.75-inch mount and the 2.0-inch mount; the water versions are the 1.75-inch mount and the 2.0-inch mount.

Pick by size and use

Compare the dimensions in the title to the space you have on the rack, bed or tail section, since the packs are sold by capacity and footprint rather than by vehicle. For Rollpax, check which mount size matches before you order. Fuel and water are separate listings, so confirm the title says fuel or water.

Rotopax questions

What is the difference between the fuel container and the water pack? They are separate listings. The fuel containers are titled "Fuel Container" and the water packs "Water Pack", so read the title.

What does CARB in the title mean? It is part of the manufacturer's listing name on the fuel containers, so check your local fuel-container rules if that matters where you ride.

Is there a color choice? Only on the storage packs, which come in black and orange.
