Removing the Evaporative Emissions Canister

[Motoman_AZ]

While I was at DP Motorsports talking to Eric (Certified Hypermotard Mechanic) he said that the Evaporative Emissions Canister could assist in making the Hyper run lean and I should remove it... while I was tinkering on the bike today Shelby and I decided it was time to go!



If you follow the hose from the evap canister to the right side of the bike you can see where it connects to the barbed fitting on the intake. Use needle nose pliers to remove the clamp and pull the hose off...



On the left side.... same thing just remove the clamp and hose from the barbed fitting.



I carefully pulled the hoses off the bike



I then cut the hose from the fuel tank vent... I couldn't figure out how to release the stamped clamp....



The canister just slide out of the mount by release the clip at the top... then I removed the mount

I then removed the clip/clamp that holds the hoses... flipped it around backwards to hide the little tit and added one of the wiring bundles and re-snapped it into place. I also rerouted the fuel vent straight down from the tank and hid it behind the oil lines



Next I used rubber vacuum plugs (yellow) to seal off the exposed nipples...just incase these were ever needed again I left them in place....



All done!!! And all cleaned up!

All the pictures from the mod here!

ciao greg -

can't tell from your photos or write up ... but did you remove the airbleed nipples from the throttle bodies when you removed the hoses, and then replace the nipples with the proper size screws?

It looks like he covered them with the yellow vacuum plugs

Save the hose and put it on the top nipple of the clutch slave. Tuck it under the frame as shown by the yellow hose drawing. You will never catch your pants on the clutch slave and risk falling over at a stop.

That's easy.....some of us don't wear pant when we ride.
