Will a NOS 15 lb bottle, that is 27 inches long fit in the rear storange compartment? I'm pretty sure it will fit as is, but I will be adding an electric bottle opener. You guys think it will still fit?

 

its a tight wedge without the opener.

depending upon the exact design of the opener, it may or may not fit.

 

Yea, it fits easy as long as you get pretty creative with the brackets. I made saddle out of some wood for the bottom end of the bottle and welded up a custom bracket that bolted to the spare tire support’s mount holes. I can’t seem to find pictures of it right now…

 

I'm not putting it in the spare tire area, I'm putting it in the rear storage compartment area behind the gas tank.

 

FYI, It fits.
