Done! Any ideas on the port on the reserve side of the tank? Looks like it originally went to vent valve. Don't want to cap it off, thinking a little runner.

Actually I am, with a newly installed 2000i. But the VOES is run right next to the choke, nothing to do with the reserve fuel tank unless I'm totally missing something.

Okay, we're starting to get out of my league, now, cuz I haven't run a carbed bike in a long time, but I'd run a vent line.

I'm thinking the same, nothing really under the bike since it should just be vapors per CA emissions, so something short. And next time I get the tank painted, it's getting grinded off and welded over.
