    Found a Hose..

    So I came home from a drive one night and found a Clear hose hanging off the frame, resting on top of the exhaust on the right side. It had come lose from somewhere... The only air/exhaust hose i'm aware of is the one that comes from the Batterys spill hole... Could anyone tell me where else I might want to check. Name and Location... (As much as i'd hate to admit it... I have no idea where the Airbox is...along with a few other things)

    The bike is an '86 GS750ES. Thanks greatly.

    The Air box is under the seat and in front of the battery. My '83 750E, I only have 2 hoses. 1 is the BAttery and 1 is the Gas Tank Vent hose.

    I'm supposed to have 2 vent hoses coming from the carbs, but I couldn't get them back on after I re-installed my carbs, so left them off. This could be your scenario. Perhaps the Vent tube on #4 came off? I think it's #4?

    Good Luck.

      the only clear hose found on motorcycles is the battery vent hose.

        Unless someone replaced the Carb Vent lines with CLear hose? :roll:

          If it's clear hose, I think it would be hard as glass and brittle. That stuff doesn't hold up to gas fumes or spills- don't ask me how I know... But battery acid is fine for it. :roll:
