Default Dumb Question: Where do you fill the oil?

Ok, I feel dumb for asking this, but I have to. I am used to changing oil on our 02 sportsman 500HO. I told a guy I know that I would change the oil on his 04 700 for him. I got the oil and filter and was going to change the oil, and then I got to lookin, where do you fill the oil? The only thing I could see is the 1/2" tube that the dipstick is in. Youd don't fill it there do you? That would be dumb. Im sure there is something Im missing. I don't have the manual.

Well, on my SPortsmn 500HO, you just pour it in the resevoir where the dipstick is, but thats a big hole. I never had to change the oil on one of these newer twins before. I didn't think you would actually have to pour all the oil down that little tube! That sucks!

Go to Wal-mart and get one of those little funnels for $.88 they work great and fit right in the dip stick tube.
