These are photos showing the different and varied emissions that are on the bike. It can be prone to failure which can lead to hard starting and rough running. The description of the removal and a great place to ask questions is on the ADVriders site. There is a thread on removing this stuff which I followed called SAS-and-Canister-Ectomy Check out the link and use these photos as a guide but really, it's fairly simple. There are four vacuum lines on the intake ports and I plugged two with small metric screws (5mm and about 12mm long) and left two for balancing the carbs. You still need to block those lines with a plug but it will make syncing the carbs later an easier job. There's a lot of discussion on how to vent the tanks. I bought check valves but since they can sometimes pressurize the tanks when full in the sun I decided to leave them off for now and just vent to the bottom of the chassis. The floats need to breath and a filter is a good idea. You can get a small one like I have at most shops. The only real hassle is making blanking plates for the SAS but some thin aluminum plate and silicon will do the trick. If you want to buy them Andrew of Adventurers Workshop sells them here. Since I've done this I will recommend putting a "T" fitting on the float bowl vent and running one part to the filter and the other down to the bottom of the bike. Not doing so will cause the line to flood if the bike tips or happens to pull a long wheelie and then it can cause rough running until the fuel clears out. |
