No you had it right the first time...It's a V5 and I own one.

Could be only the overflow tube.

For CF Moto motorcycles there's a V5 and a V3. They vent their crankcase oil using airbox vacuum into a reservoir on the airbox similar to this:

Sometimes the drain will extend down to the end of the CVT or be ahead of the wheel on the left.

The 150s have a similar drain that looks like this:

The crankcase drains must be periodically drained to prvent seeepage into the intake system.

The other line you may be talking about is simply a gear box vent and it looks something like this:

It also may plug into the airbox but the important thing here is to make sure it is tied off higher than the gear box or it will dribble oil. Rich
