Quick Drain Hose Question

Hi All,

Quick question for all the 3rd gen owners (and maybe fourth gens too?). There are three drain hoses on the right side of our bikes. Fuel, cooling system, and.... I dunno. When I started disassembling my bike to restore it the third (small and pretty short) hose wasn't connected to anything. I suspect it's from the battery compartment drain but I don't see it in the diagrams online I'd like to make sure.

Thanks in advance!

Can you take a pic?

CA-spec bikes may have an extra one.  In your VIN, does it say RC360 or RC361?

Ciao,

Thanks jzh its 360 not 361 (meaning non ca bike)! At mk2s suggestion I'm attaching a few pics. The first is the hose location. The second pic is the hose in a sandwich bag. Anyone know?

Thanks!

Did you download the service manual from this forum? On page 1-32 it shows the hoses and wires in the bundle on the right side behind the engine case. I wonder if it is the shock absorber drain tube? Look at the diagram in the bottom right corner of the page.
