I have it going to my air box at the moment but strongly doubt that this is correct. 



the second hose is on the ground, it just kinda fell out on its own and im not sure where it goes lol.

Just a heads up, i have all the hoses going to the carb in the correct spot. and i can not find anything that is missing a hose....

Please help! im sure they are only breather hoses! but you never know...

First one looks like the drain hose from the airbox. Second looks like the drain hose from the fuel tank overflow/breather. Both run down the side of the bike, and just dangle over the ground.

Make sure that you haven't wired your CV breather hose to the fuel tank... Will mess up your fueling. Also make sure you use a retainer clip, so the hoses don't fall off again.

Word thats what i thought it was! so i had it in the right place for the first pic right?

Thank you very much sir!

Yes, you've got it going to the right spot. :) IIRC, The funky 'pee pee' thing on the bottom is a valve, designed to let oil drip out, but not to permit unfiltered air back into the system.

The end piece of the air box hose is a cap. It prevents crud dripping right where the rear wheel could run over it. So the crud collects in the line. Every time you servive the bike you should put a container under the hose, pull the plug and let the crud drain out. Then put the cap back again.
