    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Hello and thanks in advance for any help. I am getting closer and closer to getting my project going. I have had to get keys, battery, connect starter, get header bolts and I tore down carbs and cleaned them. I have it all assembled now with the exception of the fuel/vac lines. I didnt have these to see where they went in the first place. As mentioned in the title my bike is a 81 and my motor is a 83. I can tell you that my petcock has 2 outlets and my carbs have 4. A large one in the middle and one on each side. Then there is a capped one all alone on the front side of carbs. I do have a Clymer but its missing the carb section and i not sure about the whole two different model years that I have going on. Im hoping someone here can advise me on what I need to do and what goes where.
 
The large one in the middle is for fuel and goes to the larger of the two inlets to the petcock. The lone line on the front of the carb is vacuum and goes to the smaller inlet to the petcock. The two remaining outer connections are vent lines and simply connect to vacuum line that drape over the air box and are uncapped.

Go here for pictures of it all.
