Default Breather /Crank case venting

So I am looking for a nice kit to vent the breather to the outside. I know DK Custom has kits but who else out there has a complete kit

I also know several guys who have some serious garage skills have done things but really just want to have something I can buy and install.

Honestly, I think the DK Customs kit is probably the best bang for your buck. The breather bolts are nicely chromed and look pretty good. Two things about it that you might change. The "T" that comes with the kit is plastic. I went to Autozone and bought a brass T. The hose that comes with the kit is just black rubber "oil line" hose. I had no problem with that, but I don't have a CVO. You might want to use some nice braided line. If you do a search, you'll find that some guys really went all out. But I wanted something that would install "out of the box" and with the exception of the T, that's what I got from DK Custom's kit.

Thanks for the input. I have done a lot of searching and DK is about all I have found that is "Turn Key" Just wasn't sure if I missed some other kits or not.

We appreciate your interest in our products. Depending on what air cleaner you have, depends on which breather system will work best for your setup.

If your support bracket is no more than 1/4" thick, then our premium discrete breather system will work.

Below is a link to that product.

I use the DK Custom kit and it has been great once I took Kevin's advice and used teflon sealant and nylon washers on the breather bolts. Before I did that I was getting a little seepage. Once we resolved my problem I have been very happy with the DK Custom setup.

Put a breather kit on my '07 Road King and given the amount of oil that drips out of it I'm glad I did. Can't imagine anyone thinking that oil going into the air cleaner/throttle throat is an ok thing.

You can't go wrong w/DK's kit and for $50, it's a fair priced solution for this particular issue/application.

This is the air cleaner I have. I am not sure if your kit will work with it.
