Topic: Fuel line routing

[billybo]

I'm brand new to this... I've recently picked up an '80 CB650C as a project bike and found some excellent information on this site.  It helped me greatly to replace the starter clutch but I'm having trouble with probably the simplest thing: I do not know how to route the fuel lines.  I just can't seem to find the information - can anyone point me inthe right direction or have some photos for reference?

Also, I have two sets of carbs -the mechanical ones and the diaphragm ones - both seem to be in good shape (although desperatley need a cleaning) but which one is better?

Cheers.

Route your fuel line so that it has no high points.  In other words, the line should be always on a down slope, never vectoring upwards.  A high point can cause an air bubble to form and block fuel flow.  Also, inspect/replace your in-tank filter and forget that in-line filter you have been considering.
