NC21 Airbox Pipe

Post by VFR22B »

Hi there,

Took the airbox off my NC21 to have a look at the carb jetting and other bits and bobs this afternoon. Upon removal of the airbox I noticed a small 6mm black pipe coming out of the front and bending down to the front left carb direction. It's been blanked off by a previous owner and I was wondering where it should go, or is the airbox off a later model?

I'll take a pic later on if needs be!

Many thanks

It appears someone drilled the hole in the airbox and inserted the pipe in (which they blanked off) - puzzled to why someone had done this! Took the pipe off and put Aluminium tape to cover the hole.

Noticed that the pipe from the fuel tap to carb no 1 was a bit knackered and having replaced it, the bike sounds a bit gruntier!

Must be the little things eh!
