1993 M900- Carb hose

TimM900 · 13-09-2023, 09:55 PM

Hi all, just a quick question. I've removed my M900's carbs for cleaning and there's an extra drainpipe or breather appeared. It must have been connected to something carbs or airbox but I can't find what. It's very small, 2mm-3mm bore, black, seemed as if it was connected somewhere high on the left and goes down to the ground on the right. There are 2 bigger breathers that were attached to the airbox, and various bigger hoses to the carbs, so it's not them. I wondered if it is an old battery drain but it's too small. Any ideas? Thanks

if you don't have the book already

it's Italian, English, French and German, so it can take a while to find the text you want

Many thanks for the manual link. I think I've found where the hose goes, there are the 2 little breather/vent containers attached to the frame, I think it is a drain off the left one.
