2STROKIN_IT Posted May 1, 2015 Report Share Posted May 1, 2015 Ok so I was wrenchin on my buddies banshee and noticed that he had some hoses with dead ends. One hose comes from back of trans on top side near swingarm pivot point, the other is coming from the clutch cover near the water pump side. I looked at my banshee and seen that both these hoses go into a T and go under the tank into idk what cause I didn't take my tank off to find out (6 pack was gone already). But my question is what is the function of these hoses if anyone has a clue as to what I'm talking about. Will it affect the way the bike is running and where does it T off too?? Thanks like always fellas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandking Posted May 1, 2015 Report Share Posted May 1, 2015 They are vent lines Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubberneck Posted May 1, 2015 Report Share Posted May 1, 2015 Yup Yup. vent lines for the trans and clutch cover area. A lot of us eliminate the one up by the water pump area for aesthetics. All that area is hooked together by oil passages anyway. i only run the one back by the trans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2STROKIN_IT Posted May 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2015 Cool thanks guys I'll have to go ahead and hook the trans line and eliminate the one by water pump. Shoot I'll probably go ahead and do it to mine too while I'm at it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry's Shee Posted May 1, 2015 Report Share Posted May 1, 2015 If you do any mud/water, best to run up/over steering hoop/area, keeps shit out of trans. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubberneck Posted May 2, 2015 Report Share Posted May 2, 2015 If you do any mud/water, best to run up/over steering hoop/area, keeps shit out of trans. need to do this as well if you ever stand your bikes up. If you dont it will run all the fluid out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKheathen Posted May 9, 2015 Report Share Posted May 9, 2015 it's that way for fluid expansion. obviously, if you know how to ride, the rear can run into fluid at times, and only vent through the water pump cover vent and visa-versa. if you dune/drag, then modding is fine. if you get in the woods, it's best too keep stock.

2STROKIN_IT Posted May 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2015 Yeah I ended up leaving it stock. Had a chance to delete it when I pulled clutch cover off for my impeller and pancake bearing but I got the thinking about mud and crap that may get into it.
