[QUOTE="kerry, post: 173489, member: 3981"] The Shadow I bought in January has 2 breathers fitted, a elephant style one but [B]very thin slim body compared with the original[/B] and new ones from our spares co. My concern is this sufficient to allow breathing being so small with thin pipe too. ? It is suggested the timed breather should be blanked off, this currently has a PCV valve at the rear of the bike next to the one from the trunk I am told the PCV valves should be close to the front not at the rear, currently I get virtually nothing dripping from the ends, but if I just have the slim breather will that be enough on it's own or should I fit the bigger type with larger bore pipe ?
