Folks,

Looking for ideas for the catch can with breather oil collectors. Those that have one, please share your setup.

I need to catch the fumes, oil mist, etc. that is coming out of my Velocity Stack... find a way to elegantly route it to a oil collector with a breather.

Searching today, found the following, but not sure dimension wise, how it would look on the bike.



Please do share your setups. Thank you!!

First time I see this... dual breathers... hummm

Another option...Kuryakyn Bluegrass Crankcase Breather Catch Can. It has a sponge instead of a proper filter, but maybe that is all that is needed...

 

DK Customs Traditional Breather Kit. Just installed. Quality materials.

 

This is how I have done it in the past. Run hoses up high so less liquids will go into the collection system, run a tee to a breather making sure the breather connection is perpendicular to the flow of the hose so you don't get liquids in the hose and then you have a hose for the collection. Check the hose after about 500 miles then 1k miles and you will probably find you can drain it at oil changes.

Pic shows:
Out of the nipples of the crank case breathers at heads.
Connect the 2 with a Tee and run over head, under tank to behind rear cylinder
Add a Tee for the Breather and orient so fluid doesn't run down in it
Run a hose the rest of the way down as low as you can and add a plug.

Great suggestions!

This is the setup that I am working with... so some fabricating will have to be done as those breather nipples are narrower than what I have in there...





I made this to deflect the oil mist... but need a better solution...

 

So do the spacers just have holes that vent to the atmosphere?

 

Correct.

Each spacer breather has one hole that vents to the atmosphere... the rest of the holes do not go all the way through. Install instructions ask that you position the breather spacers so that the drilled through hole is pointing upwards to prevent oil leakage

 

The thread from Drewbone got me going on this ( OMG, I did a [breather] mod... ) ... reason for this thread on research for possible solutions with the setup that I have...

 

Wow, glad I didn't do the RSD one, I had no idea, thought with the ears off the side it was the same as what I got....
