Look under the left front fender. I think that's where they put it. Unlike the Sportsman, it's impossible to switch to reserve while riding.

Not sure what made them think that's a good place either. I'd think it would be better off not being exposed to any debris kicked up by the wheels.

My fingers don't always type what my brain is thinking. It must be a bad connection like dial-up.
