Hoses to nowhere

#1 Unread post by kenstauffer »

Hi. I am a new biker, with a new bike. Today I just replaced the oil in my Honda Spirit 750 C2. I npoticed three hoses that lead to the bottom of the bike frame. They just hang there. I couldn't figure out what they were for??? Any ideas? Thanks.

Those would be vent and overflow hoses. They should be there.
