  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

TE449 Charcoal Canister Question.....

From what I've read on here, you really don't need the thing.

I know on the left side of the bike you can remove that brass nipple and put in a 8mm bolt in its place.

BUT....

What about the other hose that runs to the back of the bike to the gas cap area? Do I just remove that hose and put a rubber cap in its place?

Thanks

No. That is your fuel tank vent line. One line goes from gas cap to secondary tank I think, the other goes from gas cap to the charcoal canister.

There is a green one way valve under the tail.

What most do is route the line down by the shock, or leave it where its at.

I was worried about water injestion and also that valve causing excessive tank pressure (I have a ducati and tank swelling is a huge deal) so I ran my hose out the back of the bike, when I have a full tank I get a few dribbles from the line when doing wheelies, but its negligible.
 
There is a one way valve attached to the hose too. I ran mine to my air box so that I didn't have to smell gas at stops.
