How-To: Crank Case Breather Mod (with pics)

[Baal]

I don't know much, but I would be reluctant to face the filter into the wind. I don't think you want positive pressure on the downstream side of the breather system. Hopefully more tech-savvy folks will comment.

 

[Enforcer36]

any other thoughts on that guys. i just thought it wouldnt be an issue since a few other guys have done the same.

I do believe you should combine this with nilla's GP shift lever... the two go together well...

Maybe tape off a small "sight-line" portion of the...hehehe...catchcan thingy, and paint the rest black.

 

[BuddhaBuell]

@ Ghost - That's the California Emmissions canister, most just pull it off. But the Cal. guys on here will be able to tell you more.

 

[ghost96b69]

I get that, but it has two hoses running to it, I just need to know what to do with those hoses.

 

[ghost96b69]

Did it - looks great, works great - Thanks fella's - Chk Eng light still on..

 

[jet6]

Anyone care to explain the real benefit of this mod? Or is it purely to stop oil entering intake?

 

[Stevenc150]

Or is it purely to stop oil entering intake?

I consider that and only clean air being burned a great Benefit - especially for such a simple mod.

Its -20 celcius here in finland and the whole winter time to "decorate" my buell for next season [smirk]
