My guess. One is a fuel vent line, one is a batt vent line.

Yes! That's what I want to hear. I already feel bad enough about the damn dog, but it would have been over if the bike was fucked up..

My best friend had this happen to him a week into having his bike. Dog ran out infront of him, so he swerved, went up the curb, into the grass, and dropped it.

Thats why he advised me that parking lots are better than neighborhoods. Even though they may be empty, there are too many hazards that could pop up, ie children/dogs/trash cans.

Front one could maybe be radiator overflow. Back one, hell idk.

Fuck feeling bad about the dog. Deserves to be dead if it runs out in front of me and endangers me or my bike.

THose are both vent lines, nothing to be worried. My VTX has about 3 that are open like that, the RC has about 6.
