Yes mate your bike. Hope you dont mind. I dont think it is the carby pipe as it is definately a drain at the other end.

OK i now have 2 drain pipes that are connected to nothing. one is as per picture and runs on the left side of the bike next to the air box. The other is thinner and is on the other side of the bike running next to the rhs of the airbox. Both exit the bike at the swingarm. Is there anyone who could maybe give me a list of drains so i can follow them up and see which ones are not connected. Bugger not lovin this.
HELP PLEASE

Looks like the overflow tube? My headache at the moment so I should know.
Look at my picture in my album then you know. There are two of them, one on
each side.

Hojen you champion. Spot on. Obviously soom neanderthal has not bothered to put it on last time the bike was in bits.

Now i just need to work out what the skinny pipe on the other side is for. Might post some pics in the morning
Thanks mate

No, it goes from the carburetor and ends behind the battery compartment, any leakage from the carb will flow out there.

Don't forget the battery box overflow tube Damian. Is this the one, in the picture, that your talking about?
