OK so the motor is nearly swapped but what are the large nipples on the top of the cylinder heads? Pair system? I blocked off the pair valves so can these be covered? Also where does this small connector from the front of the motor go? I think its the pulse generator but cant find the connection

Those large nipples are for the vent lines to the air box. Not sure about connector

Wicky

speedo sensor connector? Does it come from the back of the engine nr the CCT?

OK so nevermind those 2; I got em,, where does this blank nipple off the right motor go?

That looks like the return cooling circulation pipe from the carbs. Refer to page 115 in the official VTR service manual.

+1 Show us where it comes from.

And the other connector does go to the one of the bottom nipples on your front carb.

OK found that out when I went to reinstall the carbs. Now what are these hoses off the carbs?

saige

gas lines going to petcock on gas tank.

DOH!!!!!!!!!! THANKS SAIGE! I am doing so much connecting, wrenching etc I am getting loopy. Should be running by tomorrow.

saige

lol,yea thats understandable,after awhile it all looks the same.

Don't forget to put the gas tank back on!

smokinjoe73

One curveball is that some of the hoses were still on the new motor so there were some doubles. Plus I have several other excuses if you're not buying that one.....

saige

so how many drinks are you in on this lol

Keep 'em coming! I forgot to actually hook up the fuel hoses when I took the carbs out a few weeks ago. But, I did remember to hook up the petcock vacuum line and hit the starter. End result: spewed gas all over my rear cylinder... that was a good one!
