Hose blow
There is a hose that is attached to the top right hand side of my engine...looks like air is pumped through it when the throttle revs..the othe end of the hose runs across the front of the engine and attaches to a device which is attached to what looks like a cooling fan....anyways on the side that attaches to the engine the hose had a big blow hole in it probably from heat and too much throttle.....bike did still run...cut off damaged hose and re-fitted..although why did this blow, any ideas....I assume this has something to do with the cooling system...not sure how long it was blown or how it is affecting the bikes performance? :?:

when your engine cycles down there is air that must be purged from the crankcase. this hose relives the pressure created by the piston cycling. no worries it is all good man.

Without a pic, I go with whatever red says usually, this time too.
One time I thought he was wrong and didn't say anything hoping to trap him. :twisted: Glad I kept my mouth shut, because he was right that time too. :oops: I even had a file that I kept reds' pearls of wisdom in. I wish I kept it. It read like a clymer for chinabikes. I could of PMed it to new members. Red Rocks. Post a pic of the burnt pipe if you can, or get it checked out. If it's your smog recirculator hose then scrap it and cap it.

Usually when I have a technical problem with the bike I will check out what everybody says and then do what red says. |

I really don't care what red does for a living, as long as he keeps posting. :wink: Sounds like a heck of a pedestal Red. But really were just trying to say thanks. Have a great day/
