Anyone else have problems with extreme gas fumes?
After i get back from a ride and shut off the quad , there is a constant stream of bubbles that go up the breather/vent tube that can be seen going up the handlebar neck into the headlight pod. I would imagine that the bubbles will continue until it cools off . I have noticed them upto about 20 minutes to a half hour.
Can also smell it when riding.

 

mine did that for the time that i had it

 

normal on my 05 when I fill the tank to the top.

 

Mine did that till broken in, then seemed to stop. Try turning on the key and let the radiator fan run and blow some of the heat away. Helps as well.

 

the Sportsmans can do that if filled too much, their tank vent system must have looked better on paper. I think you can use a vented cap from the Predator, is that right spyder6? whatever machine it comes from, it would help.

 

Thanks for the suggestions.

 

how does your 400 do against the 800? I know it's an apples and oranges comparo, but I remember my 400L was a very fast bike, does it keep up at all?

 

I havent put them up againt each other yet. Ive only had my 800 about 3 weeks and between breakin and not having someone else to ride the 400 , i havent had a chance. I believe the 800 would get the jump off the start but the 400 would probably catch up fast and probably pass. That thing flys.
