You can just see the filter below the air cleaner cover.


From front of bike

The oval style cover on yours covers the breather bolt holes. With the round cover on my bike, about 1/2 the bold hole area can be seen.

I was hoping you had a picture from the right side of the bike without the cover. I wanted to get an idea what the banjos look like against the backing plate.

I didnt get the clamps yet. From the way it went together, I really doubt it will blow apart. If it does, there's something else wrong. I plan to put some on before I run it far.

Lighting is a little poor in this shop.

The oil on the cover in the picture is a result of the way the breathers previously ran. The oil would eventually collect along the bottom of the filter and seep onto the cover.
This is not a look how clean my bike is thread.

If you install external breathers it will solve that oil mist collecting in the football. A little clean up would do you some good. It's all about the details,not the detailing thread. BAM!

Hell, I just enjoy pulling the chain on you NY fellas, and set back and wait.

Sorry to bring up this old thread. I'm going to DIY my breather setup, anyone could provide the size and length of the banjo bolts needed?
