Anyone know what this is?
I have the bike tore down doing a sound system install. I happenned to see this on the intake manifold. It looks like a vacuum line maybe? I did not pull anything off it.
I am hoping there is nothing suppose to be connected to it.
Anyone know what it is for?

With an open ended question like that and a picture of a hole leading to......well somewhere, I can only imagine the responses that you will get. That being said, let me be the first. " .....an this is the port where you fill the blinker fluid. "
Sorry, just had to.

You are missing the rubber cap for that line! Item #11. Its the purge tube. http://partsfinder.onlinemicrofiche....DUCTION-MODULE

Looks like it might be part of your evaporative emissions control system, more specifically, the port that the "canister to induction module tube" connects to.
think you've got a tube disconnected somewhere.
{edit} although the manual says "Motorcycles sold in some markets are equipped with an evaporative emissions control system." so your bike may not have it.
{second edit} Looks like the purge solenoid would be attached to the very front of the plastic battery cover (the part your ECM clips on top of), and would have two tubes running from it. If you don't have this, you probably don't have the EVAP system.
