| Okay guys. I wanted to get some info. Has anyone had any issues with fuel filters on the 700? We have two good rides lined up and before I head to Evarts and Bell County I want to cover all of my bases. I have just over 1000 miles now on the Rhino. Should I be worried about a clogged fuel filter on the trail? I would hate for something so small to end a ride that far away from home. I have seen several 660s need to change them out in the woods, but never a 700. Anything else I should be looking hard at? I just put new brakes on not too long ago, still running the original wheel bearings, stocked up on tire plugs............what else (besides a lot of beer) could I need on the trail? The ride in Evarts is planned to go over 120 miles in one day so I want to be prepared. | |

| Chris, I don't know about the 700's but I would go ahead and change it. I carry a spare on the trail because like you I dont want a $3 part keeping me from riding or making me be pulled out of the woods. | |
