Hey guys, New here and have run into a slight snag.
Part number 18 on this Page doesn't not have part 18 on it. Obviously, it should. However, after fiddling with the hose, I see no possible way that I can even get the hose to reach the carb. I've tugged, twisted and tried my best to even get them to mate up. I just don't see how it is going to fit....
Any suggestions ? It seem to run okay even with a slight gap between the boot and carb, but I dont want to suck anything bad into it. I don't plan on doing any dirt riding right away, and may not ever.. So, a K&N and removal of the airbox may be in the works anyway.
use a heat gun two make the tube softer and you shod be abel to make it fit,weth age the tube get stiff and hard two fit and even shrenk,heat is the keys two these prolem.
Order a new air box to carb tube. They shrink over time. I had the exact same year as yours and when I replaced the tube, it was about 1/2 inch longer than the one on the bike.
Been there done that. I've heated mine with a hair dryer and heat gun, boiled it in water, and left it out in the sun. It works to heat it up, but after it cools it shrinks again. You need to get a new one. My old one was about 3/4 of an inch shorter than the new one.
just for record, weth it heated up u installs it in positen on airbox and carberater weth clamp and it doesnt shrenk untel you take it of again next time,you dont just heat it up and two see if it get longer, but if you want two spend the money and wait, buying a new one will work two.i persenally woodent buys a new one unles it had hole in it.
I just bought a 1991 with the same problem. Had a new top hose off a 90's Chevrolet pickup (new). Cut it to size, with the right angle, fit perfect onto the carb and into the airbox. The redneck way to do it, but it worked!
I got my replacement airbox off ebay the other day and the hose on it was a miniature version of the one I have. I was wondering if I had gotten the wrong part, but after seeing this thread I feel relieved. I can't believe those things shrink like that!! The one I just got is off an '87 and it is literally 2/3 the size of the one off my '06.
Thanks for patience and advice as I am new to motorcycles and am not good with mechanics. Just bought a tw200 for my daughter but the right blinker is not working right. When you turn it on the front blinker comes on it is solid and does not blink, but the rear does not light up. Plan to...
Good day to all. I am a noob at this. And im planning on making my tw200 into hobby bike (modify and such) . I have very basic bike engineering knowledge and i am facing a situation. I want to have a dual front disk on my 1992 tw200. And am seeing my only option available as a 120/70-17 wheel...

Brand new bike making knockin noise when accelerating under demand, like up hill. Knockin/vibration?....2017 200 with 12 miles on her.. Any one heard this before?? Thanks
Brand new to the forum but I’m all out of ideas here. I acquired an 87 TW that was a piece of junk from someone’s back yard. I got the engine running and after that the restoration game went full throttle. I pulled every nut and bolt off the bike and restored it back to its original state minus...
