    Vent tubes on carbs

    Reassembling the bike and forgot what the vent tubes on the carbs coming from the t-vents go to, do they actually connect to anything?

    i believe they just hang towards the airbox side downwards. that's how mine was. They're just that - vents

      Confirmed. Depending on your bike, they will go over the airbox and either hang down behind it or go to a clip that holds them on top of the airbox, near the battery.

      If you have pod-type filters on your carbs, it is usually recommended to remove the tubes and turn the vent Ts down so nothing can fall into them.

      Either way, they need to end in what is basically a still-air pocket.
