use some T's to save hose and space, both carb lines= 1, rear diff. and brake= 1, fan and front diff.= 1.

do not run ur 2 carb vents together. they have 2 different functions and if there ran together its not good. one is vacuum and the other is ur overflow on ur carb.

probably because the vents on the carb were coming to close to water and restricting air.
i found this old post. seen that the guy said to put the 2 vents into 1. it makes ur machine run like crap. just wanted to clarify that so someone doesn't get mis leading info. lol

both of the lines that come off my carb are teed together into one hose. These are both vents, the overflow comes from the bowl on the carb and the vacuum is the line that goies into your breather box. Leave the one in your breather box and use a golf tee as suggested above for the overflow but the 2 other lines are both vents and can be vented together



if you plug ur bottom line coming out of ur carb. and say you got ur 2 vents on the side tee'd together. and then u do a water wheelie and you get high enough or go up a steep enough hill that ur float bowl overflows. then u get ur one vent off the carb acts as a overflow(the fuel has to go somewhere) then what happends it ur bike dies on a steep hill or in the water. it can be done, but shouldn't be done. imo

i agree. it will work. just take some of the uncertainty out of the equation and take the time to run 2 seperate lines. lol
