OK, as many of you know, I've taken to using Stabil Marine fuel-stabilizer in my gas tanks to prevent the fuel-separation issue, the water-absorption issue and in-tank rust. Stuff works well (better than standard stabil for our uses because it's engineered for non-sealed tanks), but there's always the hassle of hauling the fluid to the gas station (comes in something like a 12 ounce container, I only need about 1/2 ounce per five gallons)... esp. on the ZX-14 with absolutely zero under-seat storage to speak of...
So I was discussing the hassle of it with the other half, when she suggested that I try using a travel-sized 1.5-ounce scope bottle to carry around just what I need... A bit of rinsing the bottle, some drying, and poof: we now have a fuel-stabilizer bottle that will hold enough to do three gas tank fill-ups... Just had to remember to put some big "X" marks on the bottle & lid with a permanent marker so it could never be confused for the stabil marine (the color is similar in low-light situations).
