Fuel Line Routing ?
« on: February 10, 2016, 05:47:58 PM »
Is there a proper way to route the fuel lines from the carbs. to the fuel tank?  Bike is a 74' CB 750 K4 with stock carbs. and air box.

Saw those holes when I was cleaning and adjusting the carbs. Prior owner (s ) didn't have the fuel lines through these holes. Appreciate the Photo  :) :) :)

Keep in mind that the proper routing might not work if you have crappy fuel line.  It might kink and not be viable to route it the right way.  Also some quarter inch hose don't fit through the holes.  Proper size is 5.5mm.

Both good answers. I might add keep the fuel line going down hill from the time it leaves the tank to avoid any airlock in the line. ;)
