The code in your root message looks good, but I cannot see the images. They're probably blocked by my work server, as imgur isn't available to me from this computer.

Like I said, your code looks good. So as long as the links aren't dead, the pictures should be showing up. Can anyone verify for me?

EDIT: I can see them just fine on my phone. Looks like the crankcase vent breather. Let me see if I can verify on the fiche.

Pretty sure I'm right, if that nipple is just above the sprocket cover.

It's an "S" shaped tube that connects to the bottom of the air box.

SKU: 198551
Mfg. Part Number: 13850-13F00

It's $13 @ www.Ronayers.com (http://www.Ronayers.com)

awesome, thank you so much johnathan. I dug through the downloadable service manual and was coming back to say i found it. i appreciate all the help... hopefully this should get rid of the hesitation. and i found that there is supposed to be a plug on the bottom of the air-box that is not there. all together i expect a whole new riding experience with it... now i just have to paint it haha!

I once had a tear in that hose and it would buck like a mule at 30mph and above. I tried to use some random hose to fix it but the ends are two different sizes, so you have to get the actual Suzuki part.

Glad it's working out for you, man.
There is nothing better than getting a great value and fixing it yourself.

Keep us updated.

Brandon, be sure the drain tube for the airbox is there too. The bottom end of the drain tube should always have a plug in it too. You want to drain the mung now and again and reinstall the plug. :2tup:

Found one locally and it works like a champ! Also, I found a little time to paint it...

Nothing special

Blessed mother of god... You have a fantastic bike for the price!

A lot of people really dig that bobbed look.
Little bit of advice, though. If you will ever encounter the possibility of riding outside, put that rear fender back on. Being chopped, it's already not much. But you will have the nastiest streak of wet brown/black sludge on your back that you can possibly image if you don't. Road grime is filthy. Just take our word for it.

PS: Now that I am at a real computer, I am going to resize your images. They're ridiculously huge.

Great looking bike!!! :2tup: :2tup: What size and brand are those tires? When you have it all dialed in let's get together... maybe ride to Mexico Beach or Cape San Blas.

Finish it up by painting the headlight bucket and Speedo cover black :rawk:

Pull the front wheel and paint the lower half of the forks too.

Oh oh oh, another idea. Pinstripe the outer edge of the wheels with black reflective tape. Black by day and cool at night.
