David pittaway Posted January 21, 2019 Author Share Posted January 21, 2019 Hi drewpy I did think that but if it’s not connected it will keep running fluid out I thought I took a picture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does it attach underneath the filler cap?Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David pittaway Posted January 21, 2019 Author Share Posted January 21, 2019 (edited) No the filler is a separate piece. The pipe I’m on about is just underneath the top hose on the rad Edited January 21, 2019 by David pittaway Wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finnerz89 Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 No the filler is a separate piece. The pipe I’m on about is just underneath the top hose on the rad Should it connect to the carbs? Could be a warming hose, or the oil cooler if it has one?Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neversaydie Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Looks like it passes over the carbs and under the tank, so maybe connect onto the carbs at the rear perhaps/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David pittaway Posted January 21, 2019 Author Share Posted January 21, 2019 Cheers bud I’ll have to take a look I thought it might have somthing in the manual but no such luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finnerz89 Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 From doing some googling, definitely appears to be for carb warming. You could disconnect both and blank them off. Unless you live in Alaska I can't see carb icing being a problem.Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator drewpy Posted January 22, 2019 Moderator Share Posted January 22, 2019 I did think carb, but the browser had a fit and wouldn't let me post. As its the works PC sometimes the photo doesn't appear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slice Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Carb icing can occur at any time regardless of the outside temp, if you have the fittings for it then use it as it is usually only fitted to bikes that have been prone to it. This can also operate as an extra kind of preheater to help the bike run in cold morning starts, reduces the need for long runs on choke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Cynic Posted January 26, 2019 Moderator Share Posted January 26, 2019 Warm days it won't happen. I have taken the heater circuit of my tdr with no issues unless there is really cold air. I had a 350 that was sensitive to ice. My DT is too but only when it's really cold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finnerz89 Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 I know my DT has it, mines still in use but I know plenty of people who don't bother with it without any issuesSent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2 Wheels Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 Aye, it's carb warmer, goes onto little steel pipe in-between carbs 3+4 (right hand side). The jetting you will just have to play around with it untill you get it right. Start from standard jetting and go from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
