I did the cylinder head hose reroute already and, yes its worth it. My concern is the the crank case hose behind the rear cylinder. Several Bolts that I have looked at, including mine(09) have the hose routed to the right side of the bike over/around the starter. It is kinked where it lays on the starter and is too damn close to the rear exhaust pie and we ALL know how hot that freakin thing is! I don't see a problem with routing it towards the left side of the bike and up to its position under the seat but I have learned so many great things on this forum that I thought it would be good to check with the fellow Buellers. To add to this(for anyone interested about tires) I got home yesterday and my Diablo Corsa III's are toast at exactly 3900 miles. The damn cords were showing! And I don't do burnouts or real crazy riding(I guess 'cause I'm 60).
 
Route it how you want, but make sure it's a routing where the hose was going downhill the whole time to facilitate drainage.
