What do you guys think 'bout this for the blow-by problem for the B.S. What if I drilled and tapped the "arms" (underneath) of the backing plate for a couple of threaded hose fittings? Then plug the holes feeding the oily mist filter side, so the oil is routed to hoses and tees attached to the aformentioned fittings under and out of the bike. Any feedback?
thanks,
ash

Sounds workable. Might as well try it; if you're unhappy with the BS as it is, what've you got to lose?
