Long term loaned my xs650 1981 to someone and when it came back there are several missing rubber hoses on the Carbs.
If someone could send me a close up photo of the left side of the carbs, with carbs on the engine, it would be really helpful.
Thanks in advance and I know now not to loan it out anymore. lol:laugh:

Question about the petcock.
It has two nipples. The one on the side connects to the carbs but the one on the back has no connection. Is that suppose to have a connection tube of should it be capped off?
 
The one on the back (points toward the front of the bike) connects to the barbed fitting on the intake manifold in front of the carb, this is the vacuum that opens the petcock. If they are not used make sure both intake barbs are capped off.
 
You have vacuum petcocks. That little hose connection on the back supplies the vacuum needed to operate the petcock. There should be a hose run from it down to a nipple on the carb manifold. This is the orange hose on mine .....
