I had some backfiring happen , the only thing that I had found was wrong is exhaust pipe had come loose at one connection . Tightened all connections and backfire disappeared .
Ok, haven't found any damaged hoses or anythin' and after setting off the C02 detector in my apartment from running the bike more than a few minutes, I'm looking for the problem without firing it back up at the moment. (P.S. that CO2/smoke detector is F*ing annoying)
I did just find this random hose barb. I don't see a hose that it should go to, so perhaps it's supposed to be capped. I also didn't see it in the service manual, but that manual isn't a short read and it is entirely likely I missed it. I vaguely remember a black 1/2" rubber cap and a silver hose clamp, but I could be remembering another part of thr engine or even another bike.
Well I found this pic online of a used throttle body assembly. I grabbed a piece of clear hose I had, filled one end with hot glue and zip tied it on. If it gets rid of the hiss, I'll grab a high temp hose and force a ball bearing into it for a cap.
Out of courtesy of my neighbors, I'll wait til it's light outside before I fire it up again.
Well, that wasn't it. Still getting a leak with that part capped. I'm looking for my usb-c adapter for the tuneECU cable. Not sure how much that'll help, but I'll try just about anythin' now.

Tried that when this started and couldn't pin point the sound, but my hearing is crap.
Decided to make a picklejar smoker and hook it to one of the vacuum lines. It almost looks like it's comin' from the throttle body on the middle cylinder. Is that a thing... a throttle body gasket? I see somethin' online about throttle bodies adapters that looks like it could potentially leak.
I've done a bit or work fixin' things on this bike, but under the tank is not easy to manuever. I ordered a borescope on amazon so hopefully that'll help pinpoint this leak.
