Default Help on Breather Hose

What is the cheapest way to divert the breather hose from the carby. So it is not going into the air cleaner and putting extra oil into the filter.

Get yourself a Y fitting, and extra length of hose. Connect the 2 hoses from your rocker boxes into the Y's........take your new hose run it from the Y to below your frame and point it towards the ground.

Respects,
Ed

IF you are getting 'carryover', and it starts to get 'messy' under there, you may have to either add a breather filter or there are a couple of filter/catch can devices available.

Look under the motor, right behind the BIG ride bell, that's the breather filter you're looking at.
