Not a good idea. The engine would have no way to vent off positive crankcase pressure which could lead to a couple of interesting problems.
1. Positive and negative pressure is how the engine transfers oil from the flywheel case back to the cam chest to get the oil back to the oil pump and ultimately back to the oil tank. the accumulation of oil in the flywheel case will cause an accumulation of oil the will increase drag on the flywheels and throw excessive oil up into the cylinders (will probably start burning oil).
2. when crankcase pressure is allowed to build up, oil will start leaking from the most interesting places (base gaskets,cam cover, engine seals, case halves or just about anywhere else on the engine.
On the earlier engines (04 and earlier) the bottom end hose can be removed from the air cleaner and re-routed below the engine...but use a filter because there is positive and negative pressure there. The negative pressure makes the hose a little vacuum cleaner, great for sucking up sand when cruising beaches!
the top end breathers can be re routed but should be run thorugh a breather valve (like Spyke, Wimmer, Doherty).
On 05 and later bikes, the hose from the rear head can be re-routed, but the small hose from the manifold to the front head should either be left alone or plugged off at the manifold and front head.
this will increase oil pressure at low rpm where you really need it.:zz2cents:
