Could it be the drain pipe for the fuel tank, as it looks just like the one on my Skorpion.

David,

I can't is the first part of my answer...
I went through my binders, ring binders, pictures and CDs containing posts that I've saved over the years from this forum and as well as other sources.
I then went to Graham's and looked at what their pictures showed starting with the Skorpion line and compared it to the Baghira parts lists I have. At Graham's, as you probably know, it transitions from Skorpion carb parts then you see the title Baghira and it's under 660.
The carbs are the same other than the direction of the plumbing (vent line direction), I can verify that as both spares I've purchased used, Baghira and Skorpion are the same...
I compared the skorpion's air box to the Baghira's other than shape, the vents are the same.
I believe other than the location of the connectors and the placement of the vent and vacuum lines they're the same and the diagram will work

Regards,
Robert

Robert,

I've not forgotten about you.
If you need pictures where the vacuum lines go (placement) around the Baghira / Mastiff chassis...
I can help with pictures... no worries.

It's hard to see, but looking at Robert's photo, it now looks to me to be the fuel pipe from the pump to the carburetters.

Ed,

The tail light is a Baja Designs universal LED. I'd hoped on getting one with a red lens but bought the white as the shape was more important. I called them, as I remembered in the past red in that shape was available, the rep said he remembered seeing them also but they don't offer them.
The turn signals are Lockhart Phillips (122-9860 CRB/AMB S. Stalk III SF). I went with those as the exhaust can is a carbon M4.
The license plate bracket is home made as are the modifacations to the sub frame for the tail light and kick stand stop. I'll have to dig out some pictures later but the idea was to run all the wires through the frame. I've still got the original sub frame, I'm just cleaning the extra one up some...

Regards,
Robert

looking good bro... would like to declutter my rear subframe... but only if i had a spare one... be great to get rid of the pillion peg holes, and minimise the rear side panels , and front side panels...
