Default 3 hoses near my kickstand???

There are 3 small hoses, all of the same size, that run down the clutch side of the bike, starting under the gas tank, down and around the side of my engine cover, into the lower fairing, and then they all collect near the kickstand and are aimed downwards. From time to time I notice fuel drips out of one, and coolant out of another. What are they for? Are they like little blow off / drainage hoses?

Bike is a 2006 CBR 600RR

Thanks - Nick

One is a fuel overflow drain, one is the Tank vent, one is for coolant overflow.

they are pretty easy to pull out on accident just doing regular maintenance, so double check they are in whenever you change oil or something,
