Hey Mnsportsman,

That happened to mine after I brought it home, had 0.4 miles on it. It had a small gas leak that came from one of the fittings, and gas ran down one of the lines and dripped on the floor. I called the dealer, took it in, and they fixed it no problem. It hasn't done it since. That is the only time mine has been to the dealership. I bought it on Dec. 5, 2002, and now it has 102 hours and 595 trouble-free miles, and when I take it to the trails, I do ride it pretty hard, streams, rocks, a lot of full throttle blasts, and 2-4 feet jumps. It's fun jumping that big ole thing!!

Good luck with it,

Thanks for the replies !

Mine is going in Monday. The dealer will fix my gas leak ( warentee ), change all the fluids,
and install hot grips, thumb warmer , and moose 60" county plow.

Winter is a comin , and I really think we are going to get hit ~H A R D ~ this year.

Take care guys ,

Thats a bunch of crap! I don't think they can do that, I thought the videotape WAS the safety course?. MN sportsman, The fuel line fittings that thread into the tank were leaking on mine a little permatex on the threads is all you need to do .

Well I have bought many Atvs and many motorcycles, raced for years and years, and still ride very hard. But when I bought our 04 sportsman 400 for casual riding 3 days ago, My wife and I took the course, just cause it seemed like such a hassel NOT to, and the final papers had check boxes as to whether we took the course or not. I took it so My wife would feel comftorable on it and take it also. I do not no the ramifications of not taking the course, but it sure seemed like a big deal.
