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. https://www.ajsutton.co.uk/ 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.
