If you get the parts and workshop manuals from the downloads section, I imagine that will show them.

You would think so wouldn't you! No it doesn't.

Yes it does.

Parts manual. Page D12. Cylinder 1 (left) vacuum line goes to the fuel tap. Cylinder 2 goes to the pump.

If you look at the cable routing diagrams in the front of the service manual you will see that the vacuum hoses come from the spigots to the right side of the bike, then through the square wire guide at the front of the oil tank, through the long flat guide at the rear of the oil tank til they split and go to the tap and pump. These diagrams show you how to lay the hoses in the guides so that they will reach where they are supposed to go. If you lay them in wrongly, they may not reach.

O.k.....I should have gone to Specsavers,cheers Youngy!
