June 16, 201313 yr Im missing the little nipple thing which sits on top of the radiator cap on my Beta Rev. What is it for and will it effect the bike not having it? Is it for aiming the water away from you should the bike boil ? Is it part of the pressure release system ?
June 16, 201313 yr It is just an elbow that a hose can be connected to to direct the flow of water if the bike was to boil.

June 16, 201313 yr Author Curious though What do you mean by missing, is the nipple just broken off? It hasn't broken off. It looks like it's been removed. From my memory of my other betas, the nipple swivels and probably has a collar or flange at the bottom. Mine must have been pulled off. You can see the spring loaded bit from the top. The guy who had my bike previously had not been a good owner.
