RippinShee Posted September 28, 2009 Report Share Posted September 28, 2009 I have been told that if you run the drain lines up, and tie wrap them to the frame by the master cylinder, they run better. Should i route them that way or just down through the hole by the swinger? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hercalmighty Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 Are you talking about the drain lines off your bowls or your airvents off the sides of the carbs? If its the ones off your bowls the only problem I see with that is if your bowl over fills the gas will not drain and back up into your motor.

RippinShee Posted October 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 Yes off of the bowls... Does it actually make it run better with the ran up ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hercalmighty Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 Honesty I never heard that before. I know it use to be a big thing to take your airvent lines and run them up into the airbox. You would do that so the vent hoses wouldnt get clogged with dirt. When I was running harescrambles I had my bike die before because the hoses got clogged and the carb couldnt breath. As far as any more power I dont know. If it made a difference I think you would hear of more people doing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sToCk7miLL Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 Those hoses are to drain the carb when its overfull and also for it to breath.route them in-between the swingarm and the frame MAKE SURE YOU DONT HAVE THE PIPES HITTING THEM..once you have the air-filters on and what not zip tie them together so they dont get burnt!!

Yeah rite, and if you dont have the hoses to run yet buy like 4 foot just to be safe and cut off what you dont need. Heres a tip out of a book I just wrote setting up carb hoses for dummies. If the hoses are a bit too small to fit like mine were take a lighter and heat them up TIP: AWAY FROM THE CARBS!!!!!!! Then stick em on, take a razor and cut off slack. Bingo bango, drain lines! Just jokin on the dummies thing btw, I have a playing guitar for complete idiots book and I still cant make much sence out of it!!!!! Lick my balls if your laughing at me BTW. You try playing an electric guitar without knowing tabliture(sp) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
