Sounds like you may have a fuel/air problem. I know mine runs a little warm but no where near that hot. Did you try talking to the dealer or did you mean you talked to the dealer by saying you talked to "Polaris"? I do believe that at idle that fuel mapping is lean but it should improve at speed. What are the temps like where you ride?

hi chris,

welcome as I am new here myself, where you from?

Just strange that they don't come with one stock since the compartment is already there. It definately looks like Polaris originally designed one to come stock but removed it for some reason. Wish they kept it its a handy little storage box!

I went with the hard plastic top, half windshield, and front deluxe brush guard. Just had the plain stock black rims on it as i didn't feel like shelling out the extra cash if i bend one. I also bought an after market rear view mirror from cabelas.com which works great. I purchased the 5 year warranty for it just because it was a new production machine and I wanted any defects to be covered as I heard there were a couple recalls on them. Worth the extra cash to me. I also took the old spider web style cargo net i used for my motorcycle and put it across the rear bed area and it works pretty well. Oh, almost forgot, just make sure you don't have them install the accessories unless they'll do it for free, its real easy to do. If its looks you want go with the aluminum rims but wasn't what i needed.
