P Baskets are a transition between open and multi-compartment baskets. The only P type we offer is the K25P. In this basket there are two compartments, one for the pilot and 4 cylinders and the other for up to 6 passengers. An additional passenger may be carried in the pilot compartment however the number of cylinders must be reduced to 3.
Baskets are built as standard to fit the Queen size fuel cylinders, although, the inner height of the basket can be extended to accommodate the King size tanks.
Standard basket equipment is shown on this page, list of possible options.
