oil in air box

[bulldog_46106]

i have a 02 busa love doing wheelies but getting very tired of having to clean out the air box full of oil. the oil is coming from the crank case air tube. anyone have any solution to this problem?? i have heard they make a filter that fit in your oil pan to help keep the oil where it belongs but not sure who has them!!

I run an Hayab since 99 and do wheelies all the time, I have not any "unatural" amount of oil, as a mather of fact I just cleaned my air bix and little recerptor who was half full in about 3 years!

No residues on the air filter as well.. So might think about having a second look to that problem!!

Maybe some other thing could cause that!

Are you talking about a Windage tray? If so you can find it here http://secure.mycart.net/catalog....vnext=1 I'm not sure if this will keep the oil out of your air box though.

Is it possible that you put too much oil in?

i did run alittle bit more oil in the bike, just to asure that i dont run it dry in a wheelie, dont want to lock the motor up. northface, do you ride your wheelies very long, or high?i ride them about two or three miles, at a pretty high balance point. blue streak, what is that windage tray? does that transfer the oil pick up from front to the back? thank you all for the response, todd

A windage tray keeps the oil from rushing to the back of your cases.

This is exactly what the problem is. Trust me... I know this from experience. If you don't believe me, then ask Johnnycheese.

bacharles, isnt there a good chance of spinning a bearing if you dont overfill alittle?

 

[bacharles]

Question is... "How little are you talking about?

"

instead of filling to the center of the site glass i would fill to the top of the site glass
