i carry mine behind the seat. just a small one from home depot. i had to
use it once. trust me - you want it close. i had been cleaning the engine
and carbs, and left a solvent soaked rag sitting on the exhaust.
fortunately all i did was melt off the vacuum line.
also - take a good look at it and read the instructions. another time many
years ago i saw smoke under the hood and by the time i figured out how to
use the fire extinguisher i realized that the air conditioning compressor
had self destructed and i didn't need it. a good ending to a potentially
bad situation.
