I just bought this bike. It starts up a little rough but it goes...only to 65mph then it fades and looses power. I assume it's fuel starved and I removed the fuel tap to clean the filter.
My first question is whether this fuel tap is supposed to have 1 or 2 hoses hooked to it??? The main fuel line was attached but there is another nipple that has no hose attached. Is that the nipple for the vacuume hose? I've looked all through my repair manual and it says nothing of where this vacuume hose is supposed to be ran from or if it is even supposed to be.....I'm confused. Any input would be very much appreciated.
The bike was just purchased and had been detailed and stored for a while. It has 18000 on it and doesn't appear to have been modified. The engine refuses to hold an idle, a bit starved for fuel, I think, as a discussed earlier. Thanks for any input. -Levi K
