| - | An old WD-40 can with the top cut out to drop the vent line into. \\ | + | The fittings can be installed however you like for your application (mounting position). \\ |
| - | The can vents to atmosphere. \\ | + | Mounted vertically, (which is a more efficient use of it's volume) the drain valve can be installed on the bottom. \\ |

| + | ===== Joker Machine A/C w/ Internal Breather Path to Catch Can Conversion ===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | This 883R had a Joker Machine A/F setup that vents into the intake stream. ((Imaposer of the XLFORUM https://www.xlforum.net/forum/sportster-motorcycle-forum/sportster-motorcycle-intake-and-exhaust/sportster-motorcycle-air-intake-carburetor-efi-fuel-and-exhaust/44522-show-me-your-non-stock-breather-systems/page22?t=146084&page=22))\\ | ||
| + | The A/C was allowing oil to drip a light oil mist down the right side of the bike. \\ | ||
| + | It seems that the oil was dripping from the vent ports and saturating the bottom of the filter, and then just slowly dripping out. \\ | ||
| + | |||
| + | The Joker Machine venting system was bypassed via a catch can assembly as in the pics below. \\ | ||
| + | A horseshoe, new filter mounting adapter (Mooneyes) and a catch can system was installed. \\ | ||

| + | The bracket for the catch can was fabricated from some scrap steel then powder coated. \\ | ||

| + | |||
| + | The catch can was mounted to an existing hole in the frame (out of the way between the front lower frame rails). \\ | ||
| + | The location is out of the way yet allows easy access to the drain valve to occasionally empty it. \\ | ||
| + | While there's while there's never much volume in them, the can catches any liquid from the vent instead of it misting on the bike. \\ | ||
| + | The Mooneyes filter adapter allows the use the 4" K&N filter and Joker Machine outer cover. \\ | ||
