They are vent hoses for the gas tank and oil tank....this is so they will not air lock, make sure they are not pinched. They have to let air in both tanks.

ntohing to worry about, it may be your overflow, if you gas tank is near full and it is sloshing around, it will just go in the hose and drain out, i have had some leak out of the hose when wheelieing, nothing to worry about
