    Hi all,
    I've recently had some paintwork done on my Sprint ST fuel tank. I took pictures of the hoses before disconnecting, thinking I had it all covered. On refitting I discovered I seemed to be missing a hose! Arggghhhh.
    Apparently there should be a fuel pressure regulator hose, but I'm not convinced it was ever there!
    I have a manual and looked at the photos. Then had a really good look with the tank removed for a hose not connected to anything. No luck.

    Could someone please advise if this should be there and is so, where does the other end away from the tank connect to?

    Thanks in advance,
    Robert

    After doing some research, it seems that not all bikes had them fitted. So I've not misplaced it and I'm not going slightly mad - yet! :D

    Now I've just got to figure the routing of the drain hoses. One is obvious, the other not so. Don't want it to get pinched as the rear swingarm moves.

    2003. See the thread subject. :joy:

    It is the 2 smaller drain hoses. They attach higher up than the fuel hoses. I lifted them out when I raised the tank off the bike with them attached, which was a bad idea.
