Yep, looks like your crank case vent hose. Have you recently changed your oil? Possibly over filled it? Has the bike been sitting a long time and maybe sumped?

Якщо англійська не є рідною мовою для вас, і ви відчуваєте труднощі в розумінні того, що ми говоримо вам, я кажу деякі українські.

i've asked one profi and the answer was - hd engines dont need to breathe, so i was confused a little. now i am clear...
My softail slept for 2 years, so think it is possible to spit with oil...
