I picked up a 95 gsr a couple months ago and the guy who had it before me put a catch can on it. It's not turboed but it's on there. It started to leak a little bit recently. I took a couple pictures of the setup. Is it safe to just run a hose between the connectors and bypass the catch can?

Here are the pictures:

From can into what looks like a black box on the back of the engine.

 

He must have added it on just because he wanted to. I say go for it because it comes that way from the factory.

 

i have one, but mines not a self vent so I have one hose from my valve cover and the other running behind the motor just hangin there, ahah. Why not just leave it there?
