I have the Agostini breather on the loop racer. It does not have the flapper
valve, so it must be used with the ball valve. It has a larger volume than
the stock breather & a series of baffles to aid in keeping the oil mist from
coming out the vent. Its designed to mount between the cylinders on a Tonti
frame. On a loop you would have to modify the mounting because of the generator,
not a problem for me since I don't run a generator. I never get any oil out of
the breather, even after extended flogging on the track. Oddly enough, from the
gearbox vent I get gear oil in the catch bottle, not much but enough that I
have noticed it.
