Weak Vacuum
So a while back I had to replace my fuel petcock as it was damaged, but I am still running into the same issue; bike will only run with petcock in PRIME position. I disconnected the vacuum hose at the carb with the bike running, and I found that there is VERY little vacuum present. Do any of y'all have any ideas as to why this is happening? The bike runs perfectly fine otherwise.

I just pulled the hose itself off and it was free of any obstruction. Where do I go from here?

Ok I figured out what the issue was! As it turns out, the previous owner did route the vacuum hoses correctly. Everything is running fine now.
