| Got out today and checked the oil, got to looking at the gas tank because I am considering the EMP gas tank guard and found the end of one of my clear vent hoses had melted together so I clipped it to open it up and reinserted it into the frame. Just an FYI.. Got to love Polaris quality..

| I've had fifty year old Fords that had far less issues than these things but honestly I didn't ride them like I ride this thing either. Lol | |

| I had one drop out of the frame, made it easy to fill with water when washing it. I even debated on making a 180 degree hanger for the hose up under the bed like the Grizzly has up under the POD. | |

| The words Polaris and quality don't go together. Polaris makes HD look like a quality product. | |

| It's also a good idea to keep an eye on your vent hoses where they go through the clamp on the motor. I have heard of them melting together there. DrMud has a good idea looping them up at the top. I've even thought about putting small gas filters on the ends to keep the dirt and dust out. | |

| A vent hose on the water pump weep hole would be nice also to keep sand and dirt out of the water pump seal. | |
