    Default Is this the MAP sensor? And what are these hoses?

    Hi everyone,

    I have my bike apart ( 2009 GS SE5) and replacing a few hoses. Doing the evap canister removal, Fuel filter, and spark plugs.
    While I have it open, I wanted to ask about a part.

    #1 - the image where I am pointing to the green sensor - is that called a MAP sensor?

    #2 - the image where my finger is pointing to a small hose on left side (and yes, one is removed already) - are these throttle body hoses? I see reference in the forum to Maps and vacuum hoses? Is there a difference or are they the same just different name uses?

    Thank you

    #1 Yes, Map sensor.
    #2 Yes, Vac. Hoses.

    I'm not sure on this motor but I don't think you have any hoses to the map sensor. The map sensor has an o'ring on the back side that plugs in and an electric plug connector.

    1 little tube went to the sensor and yes it unplugs.
