    Crankcase breather & K&N Air filters

    I have K&N air filters, the crankcase breather canister or oil/air seperater is connected to the front two air filters with rubber lines. Two larger lines come up from the crankcase and plug into the bottom of the breather canister. I started investigating this because of oil around the carbs...

    DJ7011 breather restrictor

    Ignorance is bliss.... I run Mikuni Flat-slides with the Stage 7 breather set-up. The motor has run well and I was happy. However... I have recently read about the restrictor (DJ7011) that goes into the original breather pipe. My questions: 1) What is the purpose of it (yes, I know it...

    How To: Overhaul Crankcase Breather Housing

    So you pull in from your joyride with a stupid *** grin that your Max stretched across your grill. Another satisfactory run. You look at your machine with awe and delight, but it quickly morphs into disappointment when your peepers spy oil splattered across your stator or clutch cover. Upon...

    breather kit for Stage-7 conversion

    I prchased 4 K&N air filters for my stage 1 with v-Boost. I have since purchased a Stage-7 kit, and found that I need two special K&N filters (front two) with holes for hoses to combine to a cannister of some type followed by a larger hose for the crank case. Is this all that is needed? Is this...

    Crankcase Breather for Economy?

    I was reading on Sean Morley's website about his Muscle Jet Kit, and he had some verbiage in there about how the crankcase breather that is routed to the oil fill cap helps with ring seating, power and economy. Now, obviously it is installed when the rest of the kit is in place and bigger...

    Fuel tank breather hose routing

    This tube looks way longer than it needs to be. Any tips on how to route it would be great. Where does the white plastic clip attach?

    Crankcase Breather Housing - Leaking Coolant?

    Apparently coolant is leaking from the crankcase breather housing. If I ride like this, is it possible for air and oil to mix in there somehow?

    Air Breather Cover? DynoJet?

    Ok, so I'm new to the whole 'Vmax scene' and wasn't sure or not, but I'm positive there is a piece missing from the top of my air breather.... See attached pics. As per the stickers, could it possibly be jetted and that's why the piece is gone? Should I try to find a used one and replace it? I...
