    looks like a simple overflow to me. not sure where it's supposed to route but it shouldn't connect to anything.

    I routed that line on mine down and under the bike, to the bracket that holds the rest of the drain lines. It's the overflow tube for the coolant reserve bottle I believe.


    I'd be more concerned about the missing fairing! :jaw:

    Be sure it's directed toward the side since you don't want hot slippery coolant getting on your rear tyre.

    Good point. Now that I'm thinking about it, I might not have directed that hose to the bracket on the belly of the bike with the rest of the drain lines. It may reside along side a bracket for the side fairing...

    There's a metal loop under the bike. Kinda under the shifter. There's should be some other breather tubes there.
