RVF400 Fuel Tank Overflow Hose Routing

Post by Cru Jones » Tue May 30, 2017 6:05 am

Can someone post up their overflow hose routing (or a picture of OEM)? I have mine exiting by the little cut-out in the frame and that's causing issues with my Scottoiler when I fill up sometimes (the excess fuel that spills out causes a mess due to the excess chain lube). I can't find a good picture anywhere of how stock is supposed to be routed either, so perhaps this will help someone else as well. Thanks.

Well, it looks like most people just route both tubes to the cut-out in the frame. I suspect the reason for the excess fuel coming out of the overflow is the rubber gasket for the tank lid. Anyone know where I can get just the rubber gasket?
