You can get some very nice alloy pushbike water bottles for a couple of quid,
Wilkinsons do them, A good Locost job,

Love the tip about the water bottles, hadn't thought of that. Brilliant
Always keep a big hammer and a condom in your toolbox, if you can't fix it with the hammer

Got mine off ebay for £25. Nice alloy number that can be taken apart if needs be for cleaning.
If its broke, fix it. If it aint broke, take it apart and find out how it works!

I have daisy chained my three breathers with 10mm i/d hose and connected them to my catch tank in a single 10mm port. The breather mounted on top
sorts out the vapours.

martin, all you need is the main vent from the top of the crankcase / gearbox. i got a piece of pipe from A.S.K. for a couple of quid and a nice alloy
water bottle from halfrauds. the alloy water bottles weigh a lot less than the bespoke items. Just remember to open the top of the bottle or better
still remove the disk under the top of the bit you drink out of.
cheers

How are you mounting the bottles? Giant P-clip?
