Had the side panels off my 2000 ST today, routing wires for a horn & relay install. I noticed that the fuel pressure regulator has a hose barb but no hose connected. I could not find a loose hose end anywhere and my Haynes manual doesn't say where the hose leads. The Triumph manual doesn't mention the hose at all.

Thanks for any info

That opening is for the atmospheric pressure detection. There doesn't need to be a hose on it. That opening is how the pressure regulator calibrates itself to the pressure it is set to deliver fuel at.
