fzr carb pipes!

Post by ronny86 »

my engine on my fzr is running rich i believe and think it could be due to the air box. on the underneath of the air box there is 2 long bits to push to pipes on, one from the carb to the air box and one from the engine to the air box, but on the other side of the carbs theres another pipe just hanging and i cant see where it goes if any where? im pritty sure i can hear it sucking in air when i try start the bike and surely it cant be good for the carb sucking in possibly muky air? i aksed my mate who was the old owner and he said its been hanging since before he got it... so not sure it goes? any ideas would help :D

If I'm not mistaken, that one is a drain hose and just hangs down. It is there to allow moisture to collect and escape.
