Removed it today, I didnt see any other solenoid, so maybe the PO removed it.

I found only extra hoses which I zip tied. Didn't put any clamps or vents on it. Not sure if I need to, bike ran fine.

Hose 1 (wasnt connected to anything...)

Connector 2/3

These connected to 2/3. I had to cut a slit because it was a bitch to take off.

Am I done??

 

[sampsonvr6]

what exactly does doing that do ?

 

[raoke]

Just some smog bs that CA bikes have. If your not in CA dont worry man...

 

[sampsonvr6]

oh thanks

 

[raoke]

No problem dude...

 

[cling]

your saying only bikes sold in Cali have this system?

 

[raoke]

Maybe other states, but definately CA.

 

[hitman83]

that smog crap shouldn't apply to bikes...its ridiculous.

Which is why its sitting in the corner with the other ********

So did I do it correctly?

u should lift the tank, theres a four way T valve that the big hose connects to and a pur valve thingy on the left fairing stay. plug off the large tube and leave the little one open.

What are the two separate hoses that go into it for? I removed it too but I don't want it dripping gas on my hot exhaust.

I removed mine and capped the hoses at the bottom. Downside is one vents the tank so if I run the tank low and had run it in the mountains where there'd be a big elevation change (I live at the beach, I ride at 7-8k elevation sometimes) then the tank isnt vented and the cap is hard to open. when it does you can hear a "swoosh" of air get sucked into the tank.

I need to unplug one of those lower 2 hoses but havent gotten around to doing it. I havent done anything under the tank itself. I only bothered to remove the evap canister because I needed to remove it to replace the rear shock.

Ok so I will just cap off the larger hose at the bottom and leave the small one.
Thanks guy.
