deep water on a 1vj..
 
during a trip through some deep water the other day (way over the wheels but no where near the airbox) the bike stalled due to water up the carb breathers (i think). im going to re-route these, but there is also a short hose from the fuel pump to nowhere. is this a breather too? if not, should it go some where? cheers.

Carb overflow breather
 
I made mine 3 weeks ago and the bike ticks over quite happily with the water over the wheels and half way up the cylinder head.
