Hey guys, can anyone tell me where the crankcase breather hose is supposed to be routed on an 85 ATC250R? Thanks in advance.

Did yours have a fitting on the air box for that hose or did it hang down behind the engine???

Hmmm... you got me to thinking, I am almost positive that it would hang down behind the motor but there is a hole in my air-box, other than the air-box breather. But there was never a fitting when I had it.

Oh yea, is it supposed to "fork" out, or is there just supposed to be one single hose?

I don't have a diagram of the ATC or TRX 250R here, but any model with a crankcase breather hose that "Y's" into two [that I've seen anyway] usually had one hose that connects to the airbox AND one that hangs down behind the engine.
But I've also seen it setup where BOTH hoses hang down behind the engine, so that if one were to stop up with dirt, you had a "backup".

I think it's going to take an "R" owner to settle this one.

I would suggest routing it up somewhere then down. You don't want any water or dirt in your tranny!
