RAPTOR INTAKE TO CRANKCASE HOSE
#1
I was cleaning the air filter the other day and disconnected this hose. I took a look inside the hose and it was coated with dirt. Does anybody know why Yamaha didn't put some kind of inline filter on this line? It leads directly to the crankcase and I'm sure dirt is getting in there. Why didn't there put this behind the filter?

many of us who remove the snorkle from the airbox just put a small crankcase breather filter on the end of this tube. You can find something that will fit in any auto shop around $2. that breather tube should pulse (not just draw air in) which could get a bit of junk into your crankcase, K&N also makes a filter for just that application, looks better but costs more

What if you were working on it by standing it up on end. I just thought about this because I put some new skids on and stood it up. You may get a little oil up there won't you? What the condition looked like was a thin coating of dirt all around the inside of the tube that looked a little wet. It wasn't blocked by no means but it just doesn't look to be good.

Hey speaking of skids, do you have to take your off everytime you change the oil? I have the PRM and there is a hole to allow the oil to drip through. I heard that even though there is a hole it gets pretty messy. I was thinking of modifying a small funnel to catch the oil and get it down through the hole.
