No worries about fuel when riding Bear Tooth Pass. Fuel up in Cody, and DON'T MISS Wyoming SR-296 that leads to US-212 going up the pass towards Red Lodge. It is an *outstanding* road.
Fuel up again in Red Lodge. Repeat Bear Tooth Pass if you're headed via Yellowstone. (Road are different rides as you ride each way!)
Next tip is: If it looks as if the top of Bear Tooth is "in weather" with clouds, slip on a jacket or even a rain jacket at the intersection of SR-296 and US-212. It can be cold any time of year at 10,900+ feet, and there aren't lay-bys every 100 feet on the way up.
Ride well,

I've ridden with people that won't put regular in their bike when premium isn't available, and risk walking. Naturally depending on the people their riding with to get gas if they run out.
It's not Montana but not too far away. I made a little photo at the Nevada/Utah border looking to the east which emphasizes the fuel issue:

I'm going to be using this road coming from, and going to, Los Angeles. I've been wondering if I should get a bottle for extra fuel (even a liter and a half should be good for 15 miles).
Then again, I can just be conservative in filling up. I should be able to get 300+ miles on a tank full in the RT.
