Never push your bike if you run out of gas.

[3imo]

I just think it's sad that he as to defend himself over something so trivial.

If some dumbass mis-reads this thread and burns himself, there is nothing that can be done. Neither Srinath nor Gstwins are liable.

He is not condoning mass transport of fuel in a winebag. Some people...Sheesh 

[sledge]

Your attitude dissapoints me guys, as does the apparent lack of conscience and responsibility.......It very unlikely I know, but I pray to God I never have to work with you.

[3imo]

**NOTICE**

DO NOT USE WINEBAGS TO STORE OR CARRY FUEL, ESPECIALLY IN A BACKPACK.

If you like you may keep a winebag in your tool kit in case you run out of fuel and need a easy to carry disposable container to move fuel from a freinds bike to yours.  Dispose of the bag immediately and do not use it to transport fuel.

Hows that for a lack of conscience and responsibility? Sorry for your dissapointment. If only everyone on the internet thought like you, then all would be better, cause we would never leave our beds for fear of the dangers posed by the outside world, and never hold ourselves responsible for our own actions.

[The Buddha]

Your attitude dissapoints me guys, as does the apparent lack of conscience <snip>

So is your english comprehension.
Cool.
Srinath.

[sledge]

3imo?
Everything in life presents some degree of risk, what sets people apart is how they interpret and manage those risks. Some will always take bigger ones than others and needlessly put themselves and others at risk......my guess is you fall into this group.

Sesh?
Whats wrong with my English, I cant see a problem with it apart from the odd typo`. I am in the UK dont forget, and over here we use it in a different way than you so I cant see how you can make any valid comment.......particularly as it was us that gave you the language to start with! 

[The Buddha]

I didn't say grammar or spelling ...
I said comprehension.
You dont use it to transport fuel.
You dont put it in your bag when you are walking back to your bike.
Heck 3imo suggested you toss it after 1 use. Which I can certainly afford to do, I have like 50 of these. Though I wont toss it. It is nice and dry and literally dirt free after the gas soak.
You are saying that safte guards are there in place for a reason.
I am saying that they are in this case out dated. BTW have you craked open a wine box and pulled the bag out and seen it That will settle it. There is one style that has a twist open. That style is what I tested. There is one style that has a push in with a black button I think. That may be different. There is also a clear bag and a shiny bag. I tested the clear one.
I think there is no real way for anyone to make $$$ on this deal. So its not getting done.
Cool.
Srinath.

[3imo]

you guess wrong, my young padawon, but since you gave us the english language, I guess I can let it go.

btw- not to speak for Srinath, but he said your english "comprehension". Not the way you use english but the way you read and interpret it.
In *America comprehension is taught in our schools. That way when we reply to posts, we can reply with an understanding of what it is we are replying to.
I beg you to reread the thread until you get a better understanding of what was said..er..typed.




*this is in no way an attempt to burn people from the UK. We have idiots in our country too.

dammit your too quik Srinath.

[The Buddha]

Oh yea, sledge I have 2 words for you ...
Rokon Trailbreaker ...
It has tires that can be filled up with gas.
Cool.
Srinath.

[sledge]

What is this??? are you guys really so pissed that I poked holes in your ideas and continually changing suggestions that you have to resort to personal insults regarding grammer to try and get one back.....grow up for **ks sake. It seems to me you just have difficulty admiting to yourselves that some people are a lot wiser and more sensible than you are in certain areas and you cant accept the fact. I think its been accepted by the majority that wine bags and petrol are a crazy idea. Whats also been demonstrated are your own attitudes to personal safety. If a Fireman told you it was a bad idea would you dispute him? If you want the last word on the subject...take it with my blessing, it obviously means a lot to you, but dont for an instant think you have convinced me winebags and petrol are a good idea, nor is saying "do it if you want to.......but at your own risk" because you may well give someone daft enough, the idea.


I struggle with a lot of your grammer but dont make a fuss about it, BTW its not "So is your English comprehension". It should have been "So DOES your English comprehension" I would have thought that after way over 200 years you guys would have got the hang of it by now......but some people just take longer than others I guess.

I am not going to make any further comments, we have all made our points and had a laugh along the way. Its time to let it drop, I dont want a repeat of the OMW affair. As I said earlier, if you want the last word.....take it with my blessing. However, if you come back with another personal dig at me, I might, if its funny enough and I stress the word funny, decide to reply.......so if you do, please try hard and make it count.

[NiceGuysFinishLast]

You smell funny.

Was that funny enough?

I got a kick out of the "t was us that gave you the language to start with" comment.

[3imo]

don't need the last word. I think you said it best.

Your attitude dissapoints me guys, as does the apparent lack of conscience and responsibility.......It very unlikely I know, but I pray to God I never have to work with you.

What is this??? are you guys really so pissed that I poked holes in your ideas and continually changing suggestions that you have to resort to personal insults

[The Buddha]

Sledge - Dude you are wrong about 90% of your argument. The one part you aren't wrong about is the fact that its difficult to carry cos its got no handles. All the rest is wrong or a strawman argument.
I said it may leak at the tap after 3-4 uses and may have to be tossed right at the first post. So its supposed to be tossed after a few uses as per my idea. Nothing is changing in anything except the warnings.
Here is a new one ...
You may be too stupid to put to productive use, what is currently a household waste product. In that case please refrain from doing so.
BTW I have the bag sitting in my back pack for a few days after I soaked it in gas, and dried it in the sun and with paper stuffed inside. Its not even smelling of gas. Again YMMV.
Cool.
Srinath

[sledge]

Sesh?
lets forget about our own personal and differing points of view on the subject and leave it to the real experts instead. Are you prepeared to look at these pages and make comment?

I agree that in the presence of alternatives for storing and transporting fuel a wine bag should be left in the recycle bin.

[The Buddha]

Oh sledge, thanks for posting the links. That's what makes the air tight wine bags so safe. Much much safer than the DOT approved cans that do give off the vapor that is so dangerous. Good point. Thanks.
Cool.
Srinath.

[CirclesCenter]

Well if you could get it approved I'd sell them at 15 - 20 bucks a pop.

And I'd pay that for it too.

[The Buddha]

No, do your own damn wine bag reusing. The whole damn thing filled with wine costs like $12-13 so its not in any way shape or form ever ever ever going to be profitable.
BTW getting it approved will cost a few 100 G and I'll essentially be patenting air.
BTW tommorow I am going to take a few pics of me standing on one of thse bags. BTW several people including Cheesy have seen me do it and heck I'll demo it to anyone who comes by to see me.
I may also make a video clip of me jumping off a stool onto one of these inflated to the top of my lungs capacity and see if it blows ...
Its viable because its a waste product. Its smart cos it ends up in a land fill, its like using your old coke bottle to fill water and carry it around. I dont know how else to put it.
Cool.
Srinath.

[The Buddha]

I agree that in the presence of alternatives for storing and transporting fuel a wine bag should be left in the recycle bin.

Its not for storing or transporting fuel. Its for walking with fuel. Once fuel is in the bike, the bag should be tossed as per the latest iteration of the method.
Cool.
Srinath.

[ixolas]

Let it go ppl.. Those of you who don't agree say it and let that be all you say.  There is nothing constructive being added here.  Srin has an idea, if he wants to suggest it to others then so be it, if you disagree fine, but no need in beating a dead horse.  If you know your not going to use it then don't.  If you think you might, then ask questions.

Srin is suggesting a one time use of this and I don't see what you ppl are arguing so furiously for.  I have seen ppl put gas in a water bottle, pop bottle, and even a biggy gulp cups, for when they run out of gas.  This seems much safer than that.  Is it as safe or safer than a DOT?  Probably not, but only they can say if it is or not, regardless of how much testing we do in our garages.  So Let it go.

[nightrider]

A pop bottle... that is a good idea. They cost like what, 75 cents from any vending machine. Just go, buy a pop, drink the pop, and fill with gas. Even cheaper than a box of wine, and no less DOT-approved.
