When I took the carbs off the bike I found 2 long vacuum looking lines just laying on top of the starter, not connected to anything on either end. I presume they're vent lines of some sort as one end is routed down. I'd presume the other end is supposed to attach to the carbs somewhere, but I'm unclear on where that would be... Where exactly do I put the *other* end of these 2 during reinstall?

The fuel tank should also have 2 lines like that.... generally slightly smaller in diam, so if they won't plug onto the carbs, check the tank.

Apparently I'm totally missing the vent lines for the top carb T's then. Unless this new set of "fuel lines" I got is actually for that... They don't look anything like the fuel lines that were on the bike before (about 3x longer and have a 90 degree bend at one end vs the old ones which were straight and one had an in-line filter)...

Confirmed all my part numbers today. My new fuel lines just don't happen to look anything like the old ones, perhaps a previous owner modified the bike fuel line arrangement. Need to order the vacuum lines to the Ts as they're just plain missing. Thanks!
