Just want to see what some of you guys have done with the fuel lent line once you took the passenger pegs off. My wife will probably never ride the CR with me so I would like to put the in the spare parts box. |

Follow the green dots .... I routed it down the right side of intake scoop ... then under scoop ... then down behind horn and finally behind oil cooler. (Message edited by dmhines on November 01, 2009) |

Not bad, DM. I ran mine down the right side, finished behind the heel guard and exits just under it. |

I wonder if going to a larger diameter vent line would prevent so much fuel from dripping out? With a full tank and hot bike, I get a nice sized spot on my cement. That can't be good for my gas mileage. Why not just run it down the left side of the swing arm where the rear brake line runs? I don't want it venting anywhere near the motor. |

I was gonna run it down the rear brake line ... but thought it might discharge on the rear rotor and caliper. |

I removed my pegs the other day. I cut the vent line short, put the left rear peg bracket bolt back in most of the way, zip tied the vent line to the bolt. It should keep fuel off the tire and belt that way... |

When I got Loretta in Dec 07, I had a couple of instances of fuel dribble. After the re-route recall, I noticed it more often. I decided to run it back where it used to be, albeit a bit outboard so it wouldn't dribble on the pipe. Seems a shorter tube condenses less, haven't seen a drop since. Zack |

Xtreme I like your set up, thing I'll do something like that. Zac-I have only gotten one dribble right when I rode it home the first time and that has been it. |
