I think you will find that the wife is the boss in any house!!

No ones the boss in our house, just woman don't understand when a bloke can't ride his bike for a month he will make a plan some how.

The wife has been saying for the last month, I wonder what mod you going to do so you can ride your bike.

I need to get my bike on the dyno it is killing me. I need the fuel map sorted & to see the results of the 700 hot cam mod & do a few other tests while I am there.

The Raptor boys have tried it & say it works but with no Dyno results. So I have got one & hope to try it on the Dyno next week.

I took my bike for a ride today, first time in a month with this device on & could not realy tell the difference, the Dyno will tell me if it works. The wife nearly killed me when she found I had gone around the block with my stuffed leg. I said I was ok I took off my leg brace & could ride fine as long as I did not stop & put my leg down.

Kev,

Is it a simple add on or do you need to do more engineering 'stuff' to the engine by fitting this PCV item?

Cheers

I used a PCV valve from my local auto shop.

I had to open it up & modify it. I had to modify the exit end of the valve to allow for more air flow through & make a spacer for the spring so it had a quicker reaction time.

Once I have tested it on the Dyno I will tell all.

I used a valve like this one on Ebay.
