i really like the thinking out the box. better mouse traps are built every day by such.
not my cup of tea on this approach
mr. hey man used a good ole B&S engine design
this is what it have done

i flog the machine regularly and never an issue with oil in the cleaner.

 

That may be the dumbest thing I've ever seen!

 

Oh but what a boring world this would be if we were all the same.

 

I appreciate your input I've put a catch can past the oil filter to see what comes out. I believe 99 percent of oil is sent back to the crankcase. I've run this on my 124 for 600 miles and picked up 6 miles to the gallon with no issues. Was trying to stay in the EPA world. I believe all engines pick up a little moisture when shut down just to cook off when started. This whipped up oil hangs out in vacuum chamber until bike is shut down pretty much cooking off any moisture like any engine

 

I've seen that done alot,i was trying a solution that would work with EPA without pissing all over your leg . I've run for 600 miles. Only issue is I picked up 6 miles to the gallon with my air cleaner being dry ,makes a big difference on a 124

 

While I can appreciate the thought and development of your fix, it does seems a bit involved and overboard.

Kinda like you saw a cockroach and burned down the house to kill it.

 

6 mpg increase? Using that thing?

 

i could see that if he let the filter soak through and through with oil, clogs the pores and acts like a choke.
my mileage is grin factor controlled, can range between 30> near 60 mpg. main thing is not to let the 200 main jet kick in.

 

Just a guess ...are you plumber/ pipe fitter? I really like seeing the stuff people come up with. In this case it just seems like a very complicated setup for a very simple problem. I realize it's just a prototype but it's not pretty...i know I wouldn't add it to my bike. Not sure I like the idea of that goop getting put in the motor...the reason why alot of people to vent to the atmosphere to begin with. If you can clean up the design and either chrome or powder coat all the visible stuff maybe you'll find a market...just tell people it increases horse power and torque by 10 percent lol...but seriously good luck with it.

 

Definitely an interesting setup. From what I've seen, you will likely still get some mist into the intake as you collection reservoir is a little small. You'll see it when running at higher speeds for extended periods of time.
