You can see the tube I speak of hanging out from under the bike in my sig pic. I just wondered if it was normal. Thanks for the advice.

Without seeing what it is attached to I'm gonna guess it is your crank case vent line.

Nice bike...welcome to evoland, probably vent line and your bike should be a bottom breather, run to low side of dipstick for oil level and should help with less oil blowby(marking territory)

Ivory and red color. Wow !
You ride a monster machine that merges traditional (frame) and modern (Evo Big Twin) concept of Harley. Same bike as Mickey Rourke in Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man !
Congratulations and welcome !
