Breather re-route idea / Jardine with quiet insert - 09 XB12R

[Crewdog]

Man you have one hell of a site here! Since I got my XB12R 2 weeks ago I cannot stay away. I have an idea to mount my breather for my re-route tucked in beside my rear shock. I removed the rear pegs and brackets which left a mounting point I can pick up for the bracket I am going to fab. After I install the hoses and "T" up top, I am going to run my drain down the front frame and "T" off at the frame brace heading back. I wanted to keep the filter out of the weather as much as possible. My question is has anyone out there ran the hose that far? I was not sure if the 3/8 hose diameter would be large enough for the distance. The breather on my YZ450 is about 1/2 inch and much shorter, and she sure puts out the wind. The other question I had was do I have to re-map the fuel when I install a Jardine muffler with the quiet insert? I want more sound but not too much. Thanks to you all! Crewdog

I ran my breather hose down to just below my left side peg, also my fuel vent comes out there too, I capped the hole on the throttle body, just like the 49 state bike

On the Jardine, if you run it with the insert and use the stock filter you will be fine. You will not be increasing the air flow enough to cause problems.
