polebridge Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 Since I am considering pods I have been checking out various details in and around the air box in preparation to remove it. I noticed that just behind each intake snorkel (point down) is a plastic port/nipple that looks like it SHOULD have some tube attached. Neither of mine does and they just appear to be open. Is this normal? Should I be looking for some loose vacuum hoses or something? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
czakky Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 Just a drain no tubes needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this normal? Should I be looking for some loose vacuum hoses or something? Thanks! Completely normal. On the original 1100 Sport w/ the "ram air" fairing, there was a vacuum lines that connected one intake horn with the other to balance them in a crosswind situation, iirc. But mostly, they're just drains for any water that condenses in the intake horns. Artifacts of ancient Guzzi history or preventive medicine, take your pick.
