It's a catch can.
The oil breather pipe has been re-routed from the air box to stop the gunk buggering up your air filter.
It's an oily emulsion that comes out of the tubes that, if it isn't caught in a catch can or one of Mazs' wonderful inventions would spray all over your back tyre and make you fall off.
You'll need to empty it out occasionally.
Gunk is usually fed into the air filter to cut down on emissions to suit EU emissions laws but hampers the bikes breathing. Therefore this little mod is an inventive improvement.
I had Mazs' breather mod on my XB and it definately made the bike feel happier.








See boys, I DO learn ;)
