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.
