We would suggest installing an External Breather System to get the hot, oily, air out of your engine and allow it to only breathe cool, clean air.

This increases engine longevity and performance. Your bike will thank you.

Here's a REPORT LINK on external breather systems with pics and dyno charts.

Here's a LINK to the external breather systems we offer for your bike.

If the bike was stock other than exhaust and tune you lost next to nothing. My gaining those numbers is on a built 110 to 117 with lots of compression and cam. A 140 torque bike, not stock.
