I don't understand why instead of doing the T mod you wouldn't just route the hoses under the seat with nothing point down?
(I know there is a reason - I just don't know what it is...) Does it blow/push and then get backed up under water and for that reason having an alternate route under the seat allow it to work when water is up to the bottom of the hose?
When you bike gets sleepy and lays on its side the carb bowl dumps out of these vent lines. So the gas needs to be able to get down and out of the lines, if they are routed up the gas wouldnt be able to get out of the lines.
