It looks like it's just a vent hose. I don't exactly know what it's venting though. D4mn yellow bikes anyway. Can you get a couple pics of where it comes from? Is there any place that it is supposed to be hooked to?

It's hard to keep a drivers license riding a 2 stroke dirt bike on the street.  If you drive within the law they are VERY boring.

alrighty then, glad i got that cleared up.

now i have to change all the suspension and wheel bearings , get the shock rebuilt. and install a new clutch hub , put a new tire on and a bunch of other things that is going to cost well over $600

Anyone know the purpose of the "power valve vent"? I've never seen one before and am curious.
