What's This Cable For?


Recommended Posts

I recently picked up a 2003 vfr. While going over the bike I found a thin (maybe 16ga?) cable with one side attached to the front left of the frame, and the other side dangling. Does anyone know what the other side of this is supposed to attach to?

It connects to the bottom of the fuel tank. A lot of people disconnect it for easier access to the top of the motor. I think the reason Honda put it there is to prevent the fuel tank from tipping completely over and damaging it.

Edit:

Actually, there might be a limit as to how far back the fuel tank can lift up and/or over (it's been a while since I've needed access to the area). In any event, it's no cause for concern.

Thanks is all I get??

Here's how you can pay me back: There's a Cub Foods at the intersection of University & Pascal in Saint Paul. Go to the Deli counter and send me a pound of their bow-tie pasta salad. It's DELICIOUS!
