Routing crankcase breather into the Airbox on a Mk.2/2?

Post by Beanie » 18 May 2009, 21:39

Hi All,

Been a while but trying to give the CRM a bit of TLC as to be fair she's been rather abused of late (Although still not let me down, not once). Changed the gearbox oil and noticed on the inside of the filler cap a little bit of mayo!

To be fair I have ridden it through some properly deep puddles over the winter, but to avoid the same in future then want to run the crankcase breather hose up and into the airbox. Anyone here done this? If so, any advice greatfully received...like where the crankcase breather comes out of the crankcase for starters!!!!!

Seems mine is a touch too old for this nice design then!!!

Pretty sure mine doesn't on the Mk.2/2 sadly.

You'll be accessing the higher performance of a Mk3 if you do that ;) .
