Hi all,
I have a 1998 XT600E, and there are a couple of hoses which aren't connecting to anything where the fuel overdose is near.
Does anyone know of what these hoses are and where they should be connected?
Thanks,
Rob

Re: Hoses
There are two hoses exiting behind the carb if this is what you mean. Route them down to exit safely behind the engine, check they don’t foul the chain. Overflows.

Re: Hoses
Also seem like overflow hoses to me
There actually should be a bendable metal bracket on the frame where you could tuck them safely, pic below:

Re: Hoses
thanks for the replies :) There's one hose that I can't figure out where it goes - it has a closed end. Is there a vacuum hose that should be attached somewhere? Thanks again for all your help!
