Hi Everyone I have just removed my tank on my nc30 for the first time and would like to know if someone could tell me how many pipes are connected to the petrol tank is it three or four?
cheers...

3 - one at the breather on top.
2 on the tap - a large one to the carbs and another smaller one on the outermost spigot to the no3 cylinder for the vacuum that opens the tap
There is a spare spigot - it is for draining

thanks CMSMJ1 I now have a spare one that I don't know were it goes, I do know it comes around the front of the airbox and to the right hand side somewhere but can't find were it goes to????

It goes to a T piece and then down the bike to vent to atmosphere.
I don't run a pipe on that breather on my road bike and just vent it into the frame on my race bike...
don't worry about it
