snore... 
Nitrous Oxide is non flammable - Quality bottles have built-in rupture disc.
USA = Freedom Of Choice (for the most part)

I often see bikes with nitrous on them and ask myself..."why?"
Is there a need to have this that is practical? Isn't fast....fast enough? It reminds me of a time 2 yrs ago...we were sitting at a bar during MB bike week...in rolls this Boss Hoss with a 615 CI Merlin race engine...set at 1100 HP.....and nitrous........what a joke.
I assume it is more if a "visual" thing? why dont you just get a couple fancy stainless thermos' and run a fake braided ss line from the top....caffeine injection...newest thing out right now....ooo and ahhh the crowd
Plus...if you ever lay your bike down and mash the bottle.........you get the idea....I am sure those bottles are running more than a couple of lb's psi.....you will be picking nos bottle parts out of you rectum for weeks....if you live through the fire that is....

I'll definitely use it once in a while for fun. That's why I don't see the need for so much. Your setup sounds perfect. I would maybe just buy a big bottle to keep in the garage and fill it up myself?
The motor was built by "Wink" Eller out here in the Inland Empire (Cali) so I know it was built right. I actually plan to take it back to him to tune it up cuz I heard he's still around. Hope he's still around, lol. He could answer a lot of questions about the bike.
I haven't seen any bottles that were NOT siphon? Also, he positioned the bottles with the valve higher than the rear. Isn't that opposite to the way everyone is saying how to run em'? Guess it doesn't matter as long as their siphon?

That 2lb bottle probably has a siphon and works like that as long as the siphon is pointing downward. Depends on the way it was setup. Yes, the bigger bottle for storage is a must. Just chill the smaller (receiving) bottle in freezer for an hour or so, then do your transfer from the room temp larger bottle to the chilled smaller. Good Luck
