Severely split pipe

[Dudeofrude]

Well back to this saga again?  It's not the pipe the mechy said it was ?
It's definitely full of white lard, it's runs over the top of the coolant overflow tank then dissapearshe between the engine and the frame. I spent 25 minutes trying to locate it under the tank but can't see anything.
I checked the airbox as some of you lot said bit there aren't any pipes coming out of that?  No holes in it at all other than the stacks? Besides it was all crystal clear I'm there.
So I'm at a loss with it?
Guessing I'm gonna have to give up and take it to a garage to get it replaced which is gonna be expensive as it looks quite labour intensive to get it out ???

if its full of "lard" its probably just the airbox breather pipe.
Pull the feccer off and leave it off until you get round to stripping the bike one day in 2025

Might just tape it up with electrical tape for now lol

The airbox breather pipe fits onto a small spigot at the back of the airbox in the bottom half just off centre towards the left, Looking at it from the top you probably won't be able to see the spigot but you should be able to see the pipe.

You'll ruin your wife's scissors if you try to cut that stuff with them.

Yes that's it. Fuel hose would be a suitable replacement. The oem part is about £25

Yes, DekF beat me to it.

Yeah I already bought a metre of fuel pipe thinking it was that. To be fair it was only £3 from local yamaha dealer so not too bad. I will have to get under therl tank again on my day off and see if I can spot it this time.
Cheers guys
