There were two routes for the hose to atmosphere. I have no strong preference for either configuration.

  1. Early on, Guzzi routed it straight down, between the transmission and the starter. It was secured to one of bottom bellhousing bolts with a P clamp.

  2. Later, Guzzi routed it straight down and across to the right side of the frame, exiting under the driver's footpeg. Guzzi used a special bracket that was bolted on with the driver's right footpeg.
