carb pipe location

Any one know where the large rubber pipe coming from the right hand side of the carb goes to? it looks as though it should go into the airbox over the by the top of the shock!
Part number 52 on the parts list for a 2002 xt600e???

Hi Mate,
Attached a pic and by the look of it, it goes into the airbox upper, (it's covered slightly by a protective flap in the picture, sorry!)
I think it's to help with the diaphgram and ensures only clean air enters the carb.

Hope this helps

Carb Breather pipe

Yes Kenny, the pipe just sits there to allow the diaphragm to breath.

Cheers from Oz

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
