Parts query??

What is this black plastic chamber that sits in between what I think is the engine breather?.

I have been looking at the posts re-routing the engine breather BUT any associated pictures are now 'missing'.

The Tenere has a similar one but slightly larger. The Aprilia engine that I put in
when the Ten threw out its 3rd gear (exactly the same engine / gearing / cam / piston / bore / stroke the works) didn't have one at all, just a straight breather pipe off the casing.

If you go to A J Suttons web site you'll see schematics. ..No cancel that I've just looked but it's still good for reference.

here's along winded explanation about 'baffling' It might be required to stop excess oil showering back into the airbox http://www.burtonpower.com/tuning-gu...er-system.html

in fact wiki explains the baffle here... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crankc...ilation_system

I think that photobucket stopped allowing third party picture hosting last year so if people used it they couldn't 'share' a photo on another web site by inserting a photobucket hyperlink, unless the user paid an exorbitant annual fee. The consequences were that all previously linked photos became a blank icon. A lot of people shifted to Flickr. Maybe that's why you can't see historic photos.
