Dang, those question marks were supposed to be a smiley face. Let me try that again.

This is what I did with the Stage 1 cleaner. Works very well. Several others went this route. I didn't invent it so no credit here.
Costs about $5.00 - $10.00 using the breather bolts that came with the cleaner.
+1

I did this as well and it works!

Thanks Gozzie!
I am almost there with the mod. I have tried it and it works very good. I just need to clean it up a little more to make it look a little better. I am working on it.
The one question I have is that when I went to autozone and asked for a vacuum hose, they gave me a hose that says windshield/vacuum on it. I installed it and so far it seems good. Is this the same hose you have installed? Also, if you get a chance, could you please show me a closeup picture of how you routed the hose on the left side of the bike?
Thanks again.

That hose will work just fine. I'll try and get a photo posted later tonight or tomorrow.
The left side of the bike would be the clutch handle side. Left side is as sitting on the bike.
If you mean the left breather it's exactly the same as the right breather. Bring the hoses
from the breathers around the air filter and tee them into one hose at the bottom of the air filter.
I then ran the single hose down and put it in between the front push rod tubes to hold it in place and keep it off the cylinders.Then I ran it
under the frame and crossed over to the left side of the bike at the transmission mount keeping the hose above the bottom of the frame so you can still
use a motorcycle jack. There is hole in the transmission mount you can push the hose through and tie wrap it facing down.
I kept it to the left side of the rear tire under the belt guard so any oil would not get on the tire or the brake pads.
In a day you wont even know the hose is there. It just becomes another part of the bike like it has always been there.
I don't think anybody has even asked me about it when looking at the bike.

Thank you! I will try that. BTW, the two in one pipe and the bag look very good. I think I might get the 107 kit too. Not sure if I can install it myself but will give it a shot. But prior to that, I want to do the vacuum line as per your second and third video part. Thanks again!

What filter were you referring to in your above post which has an external breather included in the kit?
Regards.
That is correct. I bought the High Flow 587 that included the external breather bolts. I wanted the anodized black breather bolts, 5 dollars extra.

I have the 636v and I love the look of it. I currently have the breather bolts but due to how much oil I have in her, there is a mist.
I'm looking to go back to the catch can instead of the bolts...just need to find the time
