Test driving 223 vrx tomorrow, need input ASAP
Top speed I have seen with 4 adults and 5 kids was 57mph....fuel, well not so good....if just cruising and wakeboarding I can get two days out of a tank (see threads about tank not filling all the way up)....if wide open you can literally watch the fuel gauge decrease. That said, you can truly... -

Gas not filling up all the way
I as well can only fill to about 3/4 to 7/8ths on the gas gauge. Have had a medallion swap out already for this issue but no fix. Agree that at wide open I can suck down serious fuel and would don't know if I'm really full on fuel or actually only 3/4 full. Have NEVER seen the gas gauge... -

Just an update, BRP finally gave permission to fix. While dealer had the exhaust open, he looked at the other engine's oxygen sensor and found both of them "eaten up" and had both sides replaced under warranty. He did learn that BRP now recommends a newer flushing method over what he was taught... -
