Evap cannister hose?

Finished a ride the other day and discovered a hose hanging down below the front of the motor. Pulled the fairing(already planned an oil change) and found it's coming from the evap cannister, the bottom connector on the left side, and I cannot figure out where it was connected to. Or if it was just hooked out of the way as a vent hose.

Any idea?

And yes, I have searched some diagrams; they show a hose that connects to that lower pipe, and nothing else.

 

It is just vented to atmosphere.

 

I suspected, but wasn't sure; much thanks for the confirmation

 

I think most people with a sixth gen wonder aboot that hose at some point.

 

I'd finished a 300-mile ride a couple of days before, then found this; figured couldn't be something drastic, and the bike was running great.

Will have to get under there and figure out where the damn thing was hooked out of the way before, and put it back.
