Carb hoses diagram

Post by mc-nut »

My 81 CBX has been sitting for the past 7 - 8 years. I just retired, and am getting it running again. I took the carbs apart (rebuilt them 8 years ago) cleaned them out, and flushed out the gas tank. It idles, but bogs badly when trying to accelerate. Does anyone have a diagram of where all the hoses on and around the carbs go?
Thanks very much, Ron

The simplest way to view the schematics is to go to one of the online parts sellers like (BikeBandit) and look through the schematics online.

Ron,
After cleaning and before installing the carbs, did you bench-check them to assure the accelerator pump was functioning correctly? If it idles well, and runs well at any/all constant speeds, and accelerates smoothly when opening the throttles slowly, that would be my first thought.

I would say you still have internal carb issues. But check all the external stuff first as it's easier than pulling them again, but I'd plan on it.
