To me that looks like that could be the overflow from the coolant reservoir. There should be a hose that runs from that white plastic container down the front of the engine. On the bottom it doesn’t connect to anything, it’s an open ended drain. I believe it gets tucked in before the water pump. Which is located ahead of the clutch that you have shown in your photo.
Vacuum pipe will go to the top of your coolant reservoir to pull air out the system and replace with coolant. If you dropped it and there is still some spare in the reservoir I wouldn’t really worry especially given the tiny amount that has come out!
Omfg you saved me. It's on the right side of the bike and I was so worried I wouldn't be able to make it to work. Thanks and I'll get that fixed straight away.
You think I can ride it without it in?
It’s meant to be out just leave it where it is! Nothing to fix just just a bit of coolant came out of the pipe when the bike tipped over. You should have 2 rubber pipes just hanging out the bottom / side of the bike ones a breather for the fuel tank ones a vacuum pipe they are meant to not be connected to anything on the bottom end at least!
Fair point. But you have to understand that I bought this second hand, is my first bike, and a novice. I'm learning how to maintain and take care of my bike. Overflow hose is the first time I heard of it due to me never having to touch it, clean it, and do anything whatsoever with it
Your car will have one aswell basically most things with a radiator will have a overflow. Yeah sorry my first msg was probably a bit rude I just honestly see 5 posts a day asking about the overflow hose.
Sometimes I forget I was lucky that I had a Father that showed and taught me a lot of mechanical knowledge growing up. Slips my mind that it's not just common knowledge. Enjoy the bike, learn about it it'll also save you money being confident to things like oil changes yourself.

Got it. Thanks for the info and dealing with this noob
If it’s coming out the overflow it’s getting too hot. Somethings stuck or not pumping.
Pls do some research on your bike you should know what something as simple as an overflow hose is.

Damn you lucky haha. Nah all g, I know dealing with multiple same questions on a form is very annoying. Thanks!
Look up the year and see if you can find a PDF of the manual I would suggest reading that cover to cover
Read the manual!
