Hi All,

I’ve had a similar issue on my Flat Tracker and the oil fumes were leaving a residue on the rear shock spring.

During the first service Ryan, the CCM technician, moved the filter to a more vertical position to ‘encourage’ the oil to drain from the breather back into the engine.

However, as a further improvement, I have added a catch can/breather as shown in the attached pictures.

Chrome doesn’t really suit the bike but it was the neatest catch can/breather I could find without getting something too big.

The part is – Kuryakyn Breather Catch Tank – specifically made for Harley’s but, with a bit of modification to the bracket, it seems to fit quite well.
