I noticed when i went to fill the bike at the weekend, that water is pooling in the valley round the filler neck, and the drain hole is full

Ive heard that if you run a strimmer cord down the hole, you can often unblock it

Looking at the exit end, i have two rubber pipes ---

do you know which one of these is the correct one if i want to run a cord the other way?
 
A bicycle tyre pump with gym ball adapter in the valve fitting will blow out the tube. But it might have been flattened when the tank was last removed/refitted.
 
Squirt some WD40 down the breather hole and you will find out which is which

If the GS is like my R, use a gasket to seal the upper ring of the fuel cap to the fuel tank, should help reduce the amount of water getting in, the gasket is used on the Rnine T and the S1000
