That's cool. I start and test run engines in antique and/or racing vehicles long before the vehicle is to be put into use, and don't want to put fuel in the clean tank I use a one gallon paint thinner can with a copper tube outlet soldered into the base as a temp fuel tank.
I've found a common 2-liter soda bottle works as a small gas tank; put hose adapter in lid and turn upside down ;)
Jerry Cans in general are very interesting, they were considered an important secret before WWII and have lots of little things about them you never considered (3 handles?) There is an article here:
I always carry a jerry can with gas in my truck.
I also have 8 jerry cans full of diesel fuel (different color paint) in my yard for the generator.

Pretty cool bike - is that a '67 Tiger?
