how many spigots are there coming out of the carbs. one large one in the middle should be for the fuel inlet the two out side ones should be bowl vents , vented to the atmosphere and the smaller one to the inside of the right side vent should be for a vacuam fitting for the petcock.

Usually bundled together and routed over the swingarm on right side to exit underneath the bike.

Good Luck! :)

Edit -- not "over" the swingarm, but over rear of engine between engine and swingarm.

The carb overflow tubing & battery vent tubing should be routed behind the engine and forward of the swingarm & centerstand & away from the drive chain.
