Had  oil on left side of faring. took off left side on faring and found the crank breather tube off has 4 k on bike. just notice this while on this trip. My question is is the crankcase breather tube before the air filter and then goes threw the air filter,or after the filter and into the throttle bodies??By looking at the parts list looks like the breather tube is after the filter now how much sh-t got sucked up in it?
 
The crankcase breather tube vents into the airbox direct. See page 17-2 in the 08/09 manual or page 18-50 in the 2010/11 manual in the appendix.
 
Fred iam on a trip don't have my service manual with me. so dirt got into the throttle bodies and it to the engine??

You need to find the hole in the bottom of the airbox that the end of the hose goes in and push it back in. I'd also suggest checking the hose to make sure it is clean and free of any obstructions.

It's item 6 in the diagram below. I can't seem to find a good photo that shows where the other end goes.
