    Glad your bike is running better Thomas but the problem was not the breather - only issue that will cause is fogging some oil and blow by gases on the ground.

    Fingers crossed that the bike keeps running well.

          The bowls were primed for sure because i undid the drain plugs on the bottom and got gas everywhere, (and yes reprimed them after they became empty) but also the engine was totally flooded so i think letting it sit had something to do with it also!!!!! Thanks Again Guys.
