I run that one... and those drilled breather vents don't work that well. Put it this way if I romp on the bike hard it'll blow some specs of oil on the rocker boxes... Which is no big deal but it still bothers me. ;( RSD should have did a better job for the price.

In fact I was gonna post a pic of your setup, looks pretty neat... Thanks for the heads-up on that, It would suck putting that amount of cash for a bad breather...

thanks, not a bad idea. Any negative affects on the filter from being exposed to the elements?

Nah, You may have to wash it and recharge it a little more. And when you wash the bike with water just cover it with a plastic bag... Keep it charged the oil will keep the rain from getting in there if you get caught.

Excellent!

Thinking of putting on a sweet looking breather like that is when I think, "I should have gotten the chromed mikuni instead of the polished..." (chrome ***** thought)

lol... no kidding... I only thought about that after I put the stack on. But I got a great deal on the Mikuni $175.00 for the whole EZ kit on ebay so I couldn't pass on it... One day I'll break it down and have it PC'ed gloss black.
