Do you know what this is? 1 Year, 3 Months ago  
Hello All,

I found this under my Roadstar. I had the tank off, saddle bags, seat and forks. I do not know what it is or where it goes.

Just a small plastic tube connector or vent. Nothing inside.

I hope that pics will help.

Thanks in advance,

Stan

Looks like part of the crankcase vent from the top of the jugs.

When you say under the bike, do you mean like "on the floor" under the bike? I've handled every nut and bolt on the R* outside of the motor and I've never seen that one. Hard to see it in the pic though.

Looks like a part of the engine breather/vent system, Don't know where though



Come to think of it, it looks like the elbow thats on the vacuume dashpot on top of the carb. It's just an open atmospheric vent for the slide diaphram.

Hope it helps

It's part of a blinker fluid tube!
