Dumb question, maybe

Looked under the bike yesterday and saw only one hose - there used to be two (fuel hose and fuel tank breather hose, I believe). Is it likely that when the dealership fixed my internal fuel line they forgot to replace one of them? Stuck my head under the engine and it doesn't appear to be anywhere - any thoughts?

Thanks, DC
 
there should be three hoses. i think more likely the hose wasnt routed correctly, or the same as before. i understand the hoses are for the coolant, the oil, and fuel vents. what was done? it might help you find out where they put the thing.

Well quietman, I'm figuring you're right and the tech rerouted the hose, but I'll be ****ed if I can see where without taking thinks apart. Doesn't seem to be effecting the way the bike runs, so I'm not going to worry about it

Thanks, DC
 
My 2 cents worth is that you should check it out. A crimped vent hose can mess things up, especially gas vent. And a crimped oil vent sure could be messy at some point.
 
how'd i get my response posted twice ? i am sorry about that guys.
perhaps i should take down that mirror i have hanging in the office.
but then i won't have anyone to talk to. . .
