I don't think they are out yet.. They ship to stores in a few weeks.

I'll bet some enterpising individual or company will come out with a larger fuel tank shortly, preferably longer and not as deep so the level of fuel does not change as much.

I'll keep an eye on the time for fuel.. and how long a tank lasts. There is a TON of room behind the engine.. it seems like the perfect place to wrap a larger fuel tank around.. maybe a nice L shape.

I'll try and take some video also. Charging stuff up, going to get ready for break in.
