That is the breather outlet for the diapham of the carb. It is suppose to be that way. Nothing out of the ordinary there.

Not a problem my friend....

Be sure to go easy on that tranny. Use that clutch and change that oil often. The trannies are a bit on the weak side and won't hold up to powershifting like on the 04-06's.

The motors are solid but, keep a watchful eye on the starter one-way bearing and flywheel bolts. Another troublesome item. Keep in mind, that most of these are preventable problems. Just pay attention to your bike and I suggest to have those looked at professionally.
