Well there's always that last job to do and I've found a few of them.
Oil Breather pipe, can someone show me a pic of how they have done thiers, not into a can but into the oil catch tray or alternativly how it's rigged up into a can or bottle.
Cheers
Murray

I did originally run mine into a catch bottle, for oil and breathers etc, but these were never checked at scrutineering - so just run the breather pipe into the bellypan and you'll be fine.

Got to be worth a protest under the DD rules
1.7.10 The following items MUST be altered:
All motorcycles must have a closed breather system. The oil breather line must be connected and discharge into a catch tank.
Where an oil breather pipe is fitted, the outlet must discharge into a catch tank located in an easily accessible position and which must be emptied before the start of a race.
That says catch tank not catch tray

Well the main difference between my oil catch tank and the oil catch tray is the tank still holds the required 500cc when racing in the wet where as a catch tray with its bungs removed does not.
Big difference if somebody has a bike blowing oil out the breather because of worn rings etc and as a safety issue should be tightened up on.
