Run a hose out the back end of the bike. I put one together at home depot with pvc plastic and some brass nozzles from the plumbing dept and some jb weld. If your not running a air box, there is tons of room in the battery area. Look at pics of the Cooley replica's, check out the hose that comes out in the rear fender/tail section area
    I allready finished it. Look at my last comment I posted a picture of it. I think it turned out nice. I wanted something that not only did the job well, but looked good too.

      I seen that after I posted. It did turn out nice! My only concern is it doesn't take a lot of oil to make a big mess. I've seen filters make a mess, depending of course how much oil is being forced out

        Yes, but the catch can under the filter should hold enough oil for atleast 5-10K miles on a fresh motor like mine. Before I pulled it apart for the rebuild it didnt put hardly any oil out the breather unless you were racing it at very high rpm.
