[QUOTE="pdee4t, post: 180249, member: 1594"] Dw guys. I figured out my own methods and used my own way of venting that I felt most comfortable with. Instead of using 1 one way check valve, I used 2 'T' pieces and used 2 one way valves instead. 1 of them acts as a secondary/backup in case 1 of them fails...because the chance of BOTH failing at the same time, on the same ride, is very highly unlikely. So it has 2 paths to vent out, if 1 of those paths/valves ends up failing...it can still vent out via the other path. Then vented the breather hose to the atmosphere. They're just something I'll do pre ride checks on. No biggie. I wanted NO water and NO dust getting in there whatsoever, hence the reason for the dual check valve set up, plus I thought why not try it just to see but I actually like the set up. And also, with 2 paths for it to vent out of, that'll make even less crankcase pressure buildup which is good. It's barely noticeable on the bike and I took it for a ride to test it out and all is good :) [/QUOTE]
