Default Looking for help with 97 Tigershark Daytona 770

I have had a long journey trying to get my TS running again which led eventually to a brand new engine and a set of rebuilt carbs that a mechanic buddy has put in. However, the process from tearing it down to putting in the new one took over 2 years and now we have a something which appears to be a fuel return hose coming from one of the carbs that neither of us know what to do with. It spits a mixture of fuel and air and looks like it should either be capped or return to the gas tank or something but we cannot seem to figure it out. I'm hoping someone who works on these engines regularly will know what I'm talking about and offer some help. Thanks

thanks for your reply. I visited the website but didn't seem to find exactly what i was looking for. I actually have a complete tear down and rebuild manual for the engine but it doesn't mention this fuel line anywhere which is what really has us baffled. I am hoping someone has seen it and knows exactly what I am talking about so they can offer a suggestion.

you have to have both carbs connected to the return hose then it goes from the carb to the top of the tank

Yes, that is the return fuel line to the tank.
