Default Fuel shut-off ??

On my fuel shut-off on my 91 cbr1000f there are 2 vacuum ports. One points toward the rear which I think has the vacuum line on it. There is also one that points straight down. Anything go on to this one?? Mine has nothing. Thanks

Ignore it. Nothing connects to it.

My '89 model had a hose attched, but when I traced it, it finished around the swing arm pivot area. Maybe has to do with balancing/managing the air pressureto make the vacuum work properly, or so says my brother in law, who is a refrigeration mechanic and has lots to do with things vacuum. Anyway, Henry M is right. Cheers Slaps
