Anyone out there have a fuel tank for an 03 they want to unload? Mine has had a casting flaw since day one and I have just not gotten around to addressing it.

Wow!<br /><br />Not one post from a fellow C-Dale and Ski-doo owner! I thought out of all you (and me) red necks out there someone would own an 800 rev? <br /><br />Its a perfect complement!
