Title: Crankcase breather specs?
Post by MotoBuddha on 06/09/11 at 13:47:48

Does anyone happen to know the rough specs for the volume and pressure of air coming out of the crankcase breather? I think I might have a line on a nice, small filter I could use since the stock airbox is gone.

No spec for that,... any that fits the hose should do...

Auto Zone, Oreilly's, and Advance auto parts. I saw them in one of those recently and put them down in my brain for future use. ;)

Found this at advanced auto, it fits 3/8 to 1/2 id, I went to my local ace hardware and got a 1/2 od brass union and a couple small hose clamps and tada! Advanced auto has a couple other colors to choose from also. The stock breather hose is 1/2 so it fits perfect! ;)

Hope this is what you were looking for. :D

The one I'm thinking about is about the size of a thimble, not much larger than the diameter of the breather hose. Very easy to hide away -- assuming it can breathe enough. I mean, if the hose itself passes enough volume to keep the crankcase happy, the filter doesn't need to be any larger in diameter, as long as the filtering material doesn't restrict flow.

Moto - What filter are you planning on using? I've been lookign for a smaller one to fit on mine as well.
