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.

take a plastic one end in your ear the other around the throttles.
be careful when u find it it is going to hurt

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.
