    Where does the tank vent hose go routing wise?

    During my first little while of owning my VFR800 I took a left turn too quickly and hit a curb at about 20kph. Wounded my pride and about 1600 bucks worth of cosmetic damage. Got a bit spooked when someone passed me on the right and nearly ran over my foot. Too much throttle and away we went! Best part was, it was a hot day and I was contemplating not wearing my motorcycle pants, but throught better of it and fully geared up. Smart move on my part.

    Had to replace the right side cowl, right side swing arm cover, right side foot peg, right side brake lever, right side bar end, right side engine cover, JB welded the broken oilpan tab for the lower part of the right side cowl, right side turn signal lens, minor scratch on the upper cowl around the headlights.

    I'll be doing the rest of the repairs when the weather is warmer.

    The fuel tank vent hose came loose from wherever it normally rests and I don't know where it was supposed to vent/hang/attach. I can't find any sign of where it used to be either.

    Any pointers are appreciated.
