Do you honestly think that pipe is in the same place as when it left the factory?
Mine all run to a catch tank - throwback to racing.
There's no long overflow for the carbs as I recall. Just breather pipes. The only overflow I can think of is for the coolant, which will run to the expansion tank under the seat.
What else has an overflow?
In fact, what else has a breather?
