Overflow fuel lines

#1 Post by LC Cnd » Thu Jul 21, 2016 9:40 pm

Attempted to find the proper location to put the overflow fuel lines off the carbs. Ck'd the owner's, shop, and supplemental manuals - nothing. Went to Xavier's site - nothing. Suspect they go between the engine near the centre stand pivot or swing arm pivot - hose length allowing. Curious where the best spot is.

LC or Ypvs ?
Ypvs is where you say, should be a metal bracket the hoses pass through between the frame and swing arm.

Yep, its on a LC. Note a similar clip at the rear of the trannie case but there is not enough room for 4 tubes.

The vent lines from the sides are only long enough to hang though the loops on the float bowl screws. The float drains are about 10"-12" long and run over top of the rear mount, and just tuck between the swing arm & crankcases.
