Default Nevada Gas

Hey we are planning a big loop from home in Utah to San Fransisco, up the coast to Crater lake and back home. We are a little worried about the trip through NV, it looks like highway 50 would be more entertaining then the I-80. Anybody familiar with the gas situation along that road? The last thing I want to be is out of gas on the "loneliest road in America." I assume we would be okay but wanted to check with someone who had ridden it. Two of us will be on Dyna's and one will be on a softail.

I have driven HWY 50 several times on a softail, you will be fine. Might be an issue with a Sportster 48 but no worries, plenty of gas stations.
