Bravura, those hoses with the plugs are the drain hoses from the airbox...one from the filter area, the other from the area at the carb intakes. Keep those plugs in the tubes otherwise road dust and debris can be sucked up into your carbs. The drains are there to remove any oil, or water, from the airbox...it's part of the dealer's maintenance routine




Thanks singring, I appreciate the advice. My kz has 4 tubes from the carbs so I assumed the same for these 2 hoses. That would explain why one had 1/2 teaspoon of water drain when I pulled the plug and the other was dry. I'll go put them back right now. Thanks again.
