Smokey I was going to run the hose like that but I wanted virtually no hoses covering the engine. The only thing you really see on my install is the breather and the hose going into and out of it, but its not smack in front of the engine. Plus putting the breather where I put it gives me good visibility and easy access for draining. Also it's not a bad looking piece its small and hidden when looking at the bike from the sides.

I just did this mod the other night. I have a Cycle Visions MoFlow air cleaner. The vent brackets were flat on the sides which made for easy drilling and tapping. I ran both tubes down behind the throttle body. Connected them together with a Y fitting. Ran the single tube between the cylinders as low as I could. Then routed it behind the primary and zip tied along the frame till just past the swing arm pivot. No catch can. I blocked the backing plate vents with high temp silicone. It's hardly noticeable. I should have taken pictures of the process, but I get "in the zone" and forget. OP, your install looks very clean. Good job!

That's some super clean work you've done. Very nice!
