Converting to Filtered Vents out of the Air Cleaner

Breather Vent Bypass in SE A/C

Crankcase vented to atmosphere, while keeping the Screamin Eagle air cleaner.

If you look at the base of the air cleaner there is a lug molded on the right side.
A 7/16“ hole was drilled through the lug.
The 1/4” hose has to be forced through the 7/16“ hole creating a tight seal.
The 1/4” hose was run to the bottom of the bike and zip tied out of the way.
The Screamin Eagle air cleaner uses the rubber elbows to direct the crankcase gases into the carb.
These were cut in the straight section and connected the hoses there.
The rubber pieces on the breather bolts are part of the Screamin Eagle air cleaner kit, part number 63520-04.
Other parts can be bought at local auto parts stores. 1)
