Or is it a home made non gen item ???
I have checked both the parts book and repair manual for the Tee and what it fits into but i cant find them , in fact the parts book shows 2 hoses connected to the bowl vents which are 300mm long (a lot longer then what this bike has) which would go out below the motor .
This bike is a real case , looks great (paint) but who ever did the work on it needs to be shot (Vise Grips used on fork + other things)
Thanks in advance for any advice

engine breather pipe connects to it inside the airbox :huh:
On many bikes, the hose from the crankcase breather simply exits into the air box so that the crankcase vapors may be ingested along with incoming fresh air.
Owners sometimes elect to route the hose from the crankcase breather to exit underneath the bike or into a catch-can.
Good Fortune!

By what i have seen i hope they never work on another bike , they broke a piece out of one of the carbys and glued it back in with super epoxy .

Unless the guy knew enough to plug the open port inside the airbox, I'd guess you've got a vacuum leak there.
