Default Will I blow up!!!!

Sorry for the title, I just wanted to grab some attention. So family, my question is, under my gas tank I have 2 vents. What I've come to learn is the air vent and the gas overflow line. The problem is, I don't have any hoses connected to these vents. Can I ride like this? I mean seriously, will I blow up lmao. Thanks guys.

One is a vent for the vapor. It's a good idea to have the those vapors exit somewhere other than where the hot parts are.

The other is the drain for the area under the fuel door that's not inside the tank. With out the drain tube, any spilled fuel or rain water will end up on the motor and make a mess of things.

Tubes are not crucial, but rubber tube is so cheap and plentiful why not? Get some bulk hose and run it down through the bike and out the bottom below the swingarm.
