[QUOTE="Ducdude, post: 20131, member: 2077"] Greeting gents, I pulled the plugs put in the degree wheel and removed one of the tappet covers and spun the rear wheel and blew into the breather hose at the prescribed points yuck ...The determination....All is well:-) with the breather timing....It was perfect, actually much to my surprise...The immediate plan is to not worry about it and stop letting the bike sit at idle for to long. As soon as the big stuff is done I will revisit re-plumbing the breather line so that the path out goes out and up instead of down..I am fairly confident that will limit the flow of oil out of the pipe... Tomorrow I am installing the front Thornton shock (damper) and spring, and if I get lucky doing the wheel Barings, spacing and brakes... Thanks All for your assistance and guidance as it is always appreciated... Cheers, Eric [/QUOTE]
