Mine just has a hose up to a generic fuel filter hooked to the air box,
works fine, keeps the oil in , keeps the dirt out, easy to do.

| I've read about this on a few bikes- some just seem worse than others. You're already aware of this of course, but the tranny level should be just a few mm below the inspection hole. That helps. The other thing you can do is route a longer breather hose up the frame and then loop (no pun intended) over and back down. Then the oil has to push up quite a ways before blowing out. Or you could fabricate a breather box for it. I saw one in the 'tips' book soldered up from a tobacco tin. Maybe a tin box of mints would work similarly. Cant remember brand name, but they are "curiously strong". Cheers, Jason Ian Adkins wrote:
