Looks nice.
Regarding the vent tubes... One is for allowing runoff if you overfill the tank or splash fuel around the lip of the filler neck. So unless that is something that happens to you frequently, I wouldn't be concerned. The second is the expansion overflow drain/vent, and allows fumes to escape when the fuel expands, and if overfilled when it's cool allows fuel to be pushed out of the tank in a controlled manner. The thin tubes should be fine for both of these needs. Both should end up near or below the bottom of the bike away from the exhaust.
Just don't fill it to the brim, and you should be fine - leave an inch (or two) air gap at the top.
