just finished a second ride through blue ridge and again i got an air filter full of oil and is has blown back on the saddle bags this has only happen after these two rides 250- 300 miles it hasn't happen another time and was wondering if anyone could educate me as to why

its an 03 ultra 88 with stage 2 big bore kit my dad has a bone stock 04 88 and has twice the miles and doesn't have this problem

any info would be greatly appreciated

change the filters in the rocker boxes to the updated version, and keep your oil level a little low, not the 1/2 qt some claim, but a little bit. The damaged screen in the rocker box is more likely the culprit. I have the same bike, same setup, 80K.
