    Rubber Tube !!

    Returned home yesterday following trouble free run to Newcastle and back when I noticed one of the two black tubes (not 'clear'crankcase breather) hanging loose under bike.Is this the fuel tank breather ? the tube remaining 'in place' appears to be connected to a T junction.

    If it is the fuel tank breather tube how do I relace it (nothing obvious on first inspection) I know I sound thick but.....I am.

    It will either be the fuel tank breather, the tank overflow, or the carb breathers. More than likely it will be the tank breather or overflow. Both exit the tank next to the fuel tap, just in front of the tank mounting bolts (under the seat). If you know what you are feeling around for, stick your hand in & reconnect. If not, undo the tank mounting bolts and lift the tank enough to see underneath.

    Good luck.
