04 R1150RT vent hose consolidation

Hi folks,

I have an 04 R1150RT that I have been renovating. The canister has been removed so the bike only has 3 vent/drain (filler cap drain, tank vent, abs vent) lines to run. If I remember correctly they all come out behind the footpeg.

Is there any reason why you couldn't tee these together under the plastic somewhere and come out with a single hose just to clean things up a bit?

Thanks
Chris
 
If you tee them all together into one hose, you won't immediately know where to look if one starts leaking.

I guess that's a minor thing but I found it helpful in diagnosing a fuel tank leak just a few days ago.
 
ABS vent? Are you sure that's where it comes from? If so, do you want to have gas fumes potentially wafting into your ABS unit?
