After a fresh oil change and plugs, we got the 2012 GTI 130se out this weekend for its first ride of the season. I was pushed for time and didn't get a chance to give it a good cleaning before we headed out.
When we returned from the 3 day weekend, I washed in in the driveway and then backed in in to the garage to wax it. As I was lying under it to wax the hull, I noticed that the rag "hung" at one point instead of gliding easily over the hull. Upon closer inspection, I found two spots that are troubling because I've never noticed them before.
Both of the spots are round and about the size of a quarter. Each one is about 4-6 inches from the center line of the hull and they are symmetrical to each other. They are just forward of the handle bars, appear to be cracked in a circular manner, and are slightly dented inwards. I can't see up that far with the seat out, but I would guess these are the undersides of some type of mount for the front of the engine or fuel tank?
This ski only has 42 hours and is mainly pulling the kids on skis or a tube. The dealer I bought it from said to bring it by for pics to send to BRP, but it will be "up to them". (Fortunately, I do have the two year warranty though.). The ski was winterized and sits covered in my garage all winter.
Has anyone seen this before? Ideas?
Thanks!
