I always carry oil for trips over 1000 miles. I carry the Triumph 4T in a
smaller 1/2 quart or quart container depending on distance. If you need
more than that you probably should have it at a dealer anyway....
I got with my dealer and got a couple of quarts of the 4T from him. They
usually have extra left over from oil changes which they keep to top off
bikes etc. I just got some from their spare bottle versus buying the 4Liter
full container.
