Rain water got in my gas tank- HELP-

Hello All,

So I let my son take my quad upstate yesterday to go riding with his friends. He did the right thing and fueled it up yesterday but there was like 1" of rainfall last night and guess what... He didn't put the gas cap back on before the rain!
He didn't even realize it until after he rode it for an hour today! The bike is a 2016 Outlander 850 so it's FI and vTwin.


My question is how best can I make sure there's nothing that gets screwed up fron here?

I'm sure draining the gas is the first step and then what?

Also, is there a secret to draining the gas out? Syphon, etc.?

Thanks!

- wet behind the ears!

New to Forum and Can Am

Hello I’m new to Can Am, we own a 2018 Defender Max Lonestar, and about to pick up an Outlander 450 and an Outlander 450 Max.

Would like to know what’s the best wheel and tire set up for these 450’s? Nothing aggressive at all. Just better looking and slightly larger for a better ride and stability than the stockers. Thanks!!
