OIL HOSE ROUTING 3.8
GENERAL
See Figure 3-43. The oil tank has three fittings. From the top
of the tank, the vent hose (3) and the return hose (4) run
downward below the battery tray. Cable straps secure the
hoses in place.
A T-fitting (5) on the bottom of the oil tank supplies the feed
hose (1) and the drain hose (2). The drain hose (2) attaches
to the left side of the frame.
See Figure 3-44. The feed (1) and return hoses (3) run
together between the swingarm mount block and crankcase.
Protective covers prevent damage to the hoses. The hoses
continue on beneath the engine and forward to the oil pump.
The feed hose (1) attaches to the rear most oil pump fitting;
the return hose (3) connects forward and above.
After diverging from the feed and return hoses, the vent hose
is routed beneath the starter. It continues on to the right side
of the motorcycle. See
Figure 3-45. Here the vent hose (1)
connects to an elbow fitting (3) on the gearcase cover (4).
