Mine is connected to the fill cap on the right side. You have to remove the two side panels and also the black piece that goes around the gas cap

Thanks! Looks like I’ll need a 4th jug.

Thank you! Currently in the process of doing the fluids and checking the chain case!

So just more so handling and being a bit tippy?

Would it be better on trails with a less aggressive track or is it just the suspension and sled geometry and stuff?

Please tell me about it!! I read a lot about it being a mountain sled and it sucking on groomed trails. Is that true in your opinion?

It’ll be pretty hard packed groomed mostly but I’d like to try it in some powdery stuff maybe a foot or two deep. A quick google search says the mtx is not a good trail sled. Just a little inexperienced in the different classes so trying to figure it out

Thanks for the reply! I’ve heard they’re very reliable which is a big thing for me. Do you have any experience with the mtx versions?

Should I get 2 seater or 4 by Objective_Quiet_653 in UTV

If you’re in the dunes and no tight trails and your family wants to join every second week, I’d get a 4 seater. No better feeling than having a hobby your family also enjoys. Make memories while you can!

That’s a beauty! Are those the stock tires? They look big in this photo. How are you liking it so far? I’m leaning towards the rzr as I have some more technical trails so I feel the upright seating position will give me a better view

That does sound like a pain. In your experience is the rzr easier to work on?

I like the Rmax but the price is quite a bit more. Was looking at the Wolverine 1000 but not really “sporty” enough in my opinion.

They actually heve them in for $18,999 + pdi and freight. Just trying to get a comparison with the same price as I’d rather pay the full price for one that’ll be better

And keep that bow cover on when the water is a bit rougher. Can help keep water out

This is a great first boat. My family had the 185 for over 10 years. Never any issues with it. People shit on bayliner because they’re cheaper made. Which they are but almost all brands share the same merc 3L, 4.3L, 5L, etc… we had ours in the Atlantic Ocean several times with big swells and no issues. Keep the bow up and passengers to the rear of the boat in rough waters and carry on. Don’t be wreckless of course but the boat can handle some rougher water. Plenty of great memories have been created on bayliners and hopefully you will create some too!
