Hi All,

Just became the new owner of a very well looked after 2005 XB12X with only 36k on the clock. Seems in good shape but also 'breaths deeply' with a fine oil mist coming from a filter fitted to a breather tube. And way to recirculate this into the air intake?

Welcome here!

You don't want that oily mist going into the air intake!

Maybe you can post some pics of the bike and the breather setup!?

Some sort of catch tank is much more preferable :idea:
