Reed valve hoses

[rikarto]

Thanks for the fast response redjay! Just like in post #3, all the reed valve stuff of my bike has been removed and plates are on -> no 16126/air switch valve. Should I leave the hose #3 like that, open/not plugged?

I would plug it and see how the bike runs ?

My responses are best guesses and not based on experience. I left everything intact on my 05 Nomad.

On that hose I think I will plug what's there for now. At Lake George Amin showed me a bike with a crankcase filter mounted down low with a couple 90 elbows and a small bracket, that's what I am working on. The stock set-up leaks a little and is making a mess.

I kept the left side dog bowl, by making a bracket to bolt it to. I also fitted a small cone filter to the crankcase breather hose. I think they look odd, with only one dog bowl.

Solution:

hose #1 throw it away and plug the fitting
hose #2 throw it away and plug the fitting
hose #3 connect it to inlet air pressure sensor


I had some problems with idle when hose #3 wasn't connected to inlet air pressure sensor, actually no idle at all.

Now she purrs like a cat.

Getting by, Mick... Getting used to the new normal. It's been a long hot summer down here, but made a sudden recent jump into mid-winter. I have to admit though - I've neglected the Voyager over the last few months, in favour of my new bike.
