Excess Oil From Crankcase Breather

    G'day All,

    I keep getting excess oil dripping from my Screamin Budgie Air Cleaner down onto the side nose cone cover while riding.

    On my previous 91 evo I would find the odd drop spill down but this 103 twin cam likes to drop alot more than I would thought it really should.

    It's getting that way that each time I come home from a ride out I need to spray some degreaser on the nose cone to clean the oil off.

    Anybody else had this problem or know what can be the problem.

    Cheers,

    Best option is to have ya heads vent to atmosphere into a catch can, but I would be pulling the rocker covers and drill out the oil return holes in your rocker supports.

    Also make sure you haven,t over filled the oil tank and try running level a about 3/4 on dip stick

    As above I have gone to external or atmospheric breather lines and no more problems. Mine used to 'spray' a little oil down the side when riding at speed into headwinds. No dramas now
