    Whilst giving the bike clean yesterday (rr9) I spotted this tube/pipe that I hadn't noticed before and thought that's a bit odd surely it should be pointing towards the ground?
    The end of the tube/pipe is resting on top of the chain guard.

    And what is it ?

    I thought both hoses run straight down. On the rr7 there was a clip on the back of the fairing they ran through.

    Ones the breather tube and I forget what the other is, but they should both come down and out of this hole in the bottom.
    I always found when they've been in for work and the fairing off that they often shove them anywhere, not realising they come out here....as they've done on the sp :rolleyes:

    Sorry to hear that Lozzy wish you a speedy recovery certainly seems as though the infection rates are on the increase.

    2 tubes through the hole at the bottom of the fairing near the side stand. Rad and fuel tank over flow.

    I still think a wall across from about south Wales to the Wash would be a good idea to keep out the germs. I thought it should be about level with Winchester at one time but then I moved north...The Suffolk Steppes. :oops:
