Help! 85' VT700 carb tube routing? Help! - Honda Shadow Forums : Shadow Motorcycle Forum

gmoney1 · 10-13-2008, 06:37 PM

Hi, I have a 85' Vt700 Shadow and removed the carbs. They are back on and it runs, BUT.. there is a black plastic tube shaped kinda like an "L" that is in the middle of the carbs on the top, and I cant find a hose to go there. If someone would look at thier bike and let me know what it should connect to I would sure appreciate the help. Thanks in advance!

Update.. This will have to be solved by a actual Shadow rider, who happens to have thier tank and air tube removed, . It is very hard to see otherwise. I will be most grateful for a solution. May take awile, but worth the wait. For now I will have faith, and just wish I had wrote down "what went where"..lol

Hi Gmoney1,

Hi Landon,
Cool, thanks, by the way where did you get those exhaust pipes? Those are the best aftermarket I have seen..

Those came with the motorcycle when I bought it, from what I have been told they are the stock style for this model.
