Help!  I removed my carburetor from my 2005 GS500F, but now I'm having trouble reconnecting all of the hoses.  I have them all reconnected except for one vacuum hose.  I took pictures of the disassembly, but I still can't tell from the picture where this one hose went.  I took a look at the hose routing diagrams on the Wiki, but they are not entirely applicable for a 2005 model.  Any idea where the hose identified by the arrow goes?

I have a 98 so my carbs are different a little bit. But my vac hose goes from a nipple on the left carb to the back most left nipple on the frame mounted petcock. Its the smallest hose. But again, My carbs and actually the frame mount petcock are both different.
But if you have all the rest you should find where it goes...
Two go from tank to frame petcock, reserve line and "on" fuel line.
One goes from frame petcock to a T fitting on the carb.
Another from the frame petcock goes to left side carb vac nipple.
Then your carbs will have another T line that is a drain/vent hose, that doesnt connect to anything.
Tank will have another vent/drain hose that goes to nothing.

I dont know how similar 98 carbs are to an 05 though...so someone can maybe verify this is also correct for his 05?

also...here is the earlier carbs/frame petcock layout... http://gstwin.com/fuel_hose_routing.htm

i had these scanned at a dealer, these are from actual suzuki repair manuals.

Actually here's a bigger one

Found my answer in this post.

The fuel petcock vacuum connector is just well hidden.
