bad base gasket..

I talked my new 570 up to all my buddies and haven’t had any of the "normal" issues these have had until today I noticed a plate sized puddle of oil under my atv. It’s leaking from the base gasket just below the start of the header. It’s not so much a 570 design flaw as it is a quality control issue with Polaris. I assume they didn’t torque it properly and that’s the issue, mass production problems I guess. Hopefully that’s covered under warranty, I have a good dealership and I personally know most of the mechanics there so i know it’ll be done right.
