What's the deal with gas in france? What converters/adapters do I need?

I am gonna be touring around france for about 3 weeks and only have 60L tank so filling up is gonna be a regular thing.

It's a tartini system on a shogun if that helps

Thank you
Jon

You will need the French system adaptor which screws into the thread in the filler (you can buy this from Tinley Tech) but apart from that gas is regularly available at French filling stations

This is the adaptor you'll need;

Gas seems to be more easily available than in the uk. All the service stations on the Autoroutes have it.

I have to admit to being stupid in france and spain with gas, I was too hung up on finding an adapter to fit that I failed to notice that I didn't need an adapter at all, the kit from Tinleytech had a european filler on it (have to use an adapter in the UK though). I realised when we got home, Doh!
