Anyone know what this thin lead/pipe is that runs up the side beneath the riders seat,it goes just under the rear cowl/tail unit and is not connected to anything,is it a breather of some kind?

 

Doesn't look stock. Maybe it was for some kind of air shock at one time????

 

It’s held in place with the square black tab,very rigid fine diameter pipe,but can’t seen to find where it actually comes from without stripping the fairings off. Was bit concerned as it’s not attached to anything on the rear,so maybe your right!

 

Not stock!

You may find a bottle of whisky at the other end.

 

Well I hope so lol

 

Previously an air line supply for flipper plate set up ? Seen wiper blade motor do the same trick.

 

Really?
now you got me thinking!

 

Line for an air shift?

 

Well I’ve had the bike running while checking out this tube/pipe and it still has a light vacuum/suction,do I seal it off or leave as is,looks like a full fairing removal to see where it’s coming from!

 

Yes plug it.
