Default Trans Vent

1997 FLH


While cleaning the greasy bits for my swingarm change , noticed the trans vent.
Can that be extended out under the rear fender, get the oil vapour away from things?

Run it wherever you want, but no one ever complains that transmission vapor venting is a problem.

The Baker I just installed in mine just has a small hole in the top cover.
No hose at all.

Hmm, It's all kind of greasy, back there, back of starter etc, thought the trans vent might be contributing, maybe not?

It is NOT a good idea to post pics of your tranny.
