I like the proper plugs in the swing arm pivot holes and exhaust, but not the filter on the breather...........Read Flip's link about breathers in a recent thread.

I,m on my thirteenth Ducati now, I have fitted filters on the cranckcases of all of them, havn,t had a problem yet, same with the air box, thats the first thing that has to go.

I haven't got a problem with you having a filter on your breather either...

I'll be sticking with the standard arrangement though.

I've had 11 Triumphs so far and I have to make the next one the last as I would never have a thirteenth..!

I did, however come unstuck with a crankcase filter that I fitted to a Triumph T100 that I restored last year, that proved to be a big NO NO, so I had to revert to the standard system.
Re. The THIRTEENTH syndrome, it did cross my mind for a fleeting moment, then I thought that if I don't do the thirteenth, then how am I going to get on to the fourteenth.

Dookbob can you show me what I need to fit a filter like that. I was in 2 minds about doing it but having just refitted the catch tank and needing a hammer and some swearing I decided to go the filter route

Just go on EBay and search for crankcase breather filter, measure the diameter of the breather stub first because they come in various sizes. Also, if you are still running with the air box you will need a rubber bung for the hole that the catch tank hose used to attach to.

Cool, thanks. Yes still with airbox for the moment. That will change, hopefully later in the summer.
