I'm guessing your cannister is from Amazon. I made that mistake. The DK Customs cannisters have foam & baffles that stop the oil mist. I modified my Amazon cannister to stop the mist, but then I was concerned about crankcase pressure if those baffles didn't allow enough air flow. I ran the vent hose to a filter after that, routed under the bike. When the filter needed to be cleaned, I just never put it back on and now I let it drip on the ground. I agree that there's really no harm in putting that mist back into the combustion chamber. It's not ideal, but I think these air cooled motors produce plenty of heat to burn it off. There are too many Harley's out there with hundreds of thousands of miles with OEM venting & no issues.

This look great and is next on my list to install. I finally installed my Baker Rack. What a pain in the ass that was. Mine is the older version (I think) that has a latch on the gas side vs a pin. Very hard to get lined up. I've had a couple of surgeries since I posted a video 4 or so months ago but I have filmed a bunch here and there. The big Slingshot's in the Smokey's rally in Maggie Valley, NC will be Tue, May 27, 2025 - Sat, May 31, 2025. Would be a great trip for you and the wife to attend. I'm thinking about doing a run to the Key's, maybe in March/April. Great to see you back in action and looking forward to your next video.

It’s good to see that their are individual that share videos like these, and not something stupid. We do appreciate quality content that we can reference from , An install videos for a Polaris slingshot is hard to find from Polaris . and basically critical formation is unavailable on a slingshot, it’s not like Polaris has anything other useful video other than changing the oil fluid. Now slingmods has many but not directly related to the slingshot. It’s frustrating when you have a question about something and you spends days trying to get any information. Thank you , your video and others like them make us lazy ones, 😁,teach us and inform us how to do it correctly.

Good to see you back in action. I was a little concerned something had happened and glad to see you posting. I’m one to talk as I haven’t posted a video myself in over a month 😂. I put a taller Windshield on mine as well (ATSS NASCAR) and it really does make a difference. I’ll use my Klockwerks for warm weather as well. Bummer on losing footage. Still have a few warm days here in coastal NC. I actually got to ride today for a couple of hours. I’ve had a lot going on as well and also had surgery a couple of weeks ago. I did go 4x4’ing in Moab last month and have 3 days of footage I’m still going through. Oh, and I got a baker rack I’ve yet to put on. Hopefully this weekend. Take care and look forward to more videos.

Hey man, really happy you're back!!! I know on your last video you weren't sure you would do anymore because of the hate of bikers and slingshots. I gotta tell ya, 90% of my friends ride and they always invite me to go with them in my 22 slingshot. They always question me about it ( especially the wifes) and I tell them how much I love it. I'm in south Florida and rode up to Daytona for the Biketoberfest with my biker buddy's and we had a great time. Keep those videos coming!!!

If you are have that mutch oil blow by in your system then you need to redure the amount of oil in the system. I might suggest that you reduce the oil on your next change by 1/4 of a Quart. When you are running over the Max oil then you will see excessive blow by in the system.

Crankcase ventilation and EGRs are completely different functions. The small amount of oil mist being introduced into the intake of a Harley motor causing carbon buildup (which is true) is not necessarily the reason why modifications that reroute the crankcase vent to a catch can exist. The puff of air that pushes crankcase oil out into the air cleaner is due to valve overlap. If it weren't for that you would never know or care that a mist of oil was being fed into the combustion chamber. You're not getting rid of valve overlap in a motor that has a cam profile with even a hint of performance built into it. Add to that a crankcase whose area is taken up by a rotating mass and two large pistons travelling towards it at high speed, you're never ever going to not have oil mist travelling through whatever means it uses to get to atmosphere. Harley Davidson wisely exited the crank vent into the upper end instead of where it used to be, directly in the side of the crankcase. So yeah, put it back to stock and live with it. Wise move 628. P.S. The best thing you can do for crankcase pressure is a check valve that only allows crankcase gases to exit. Which as an added bonus actually helps performance.
@tta8503 ай бұрын
External breathers work, yours is just a very poor design / implementation. Also PCV and EGR two different systems, Harley’s have one not the other and do not need either 😂

I've used DK Transformers with their catch can on two M8 motors. Neither had any of the crap blow out of their catch cans. EBS is totally worth doing....I wouldn't want what I've emptied out of those cans going through my motors! My air cleaner and throttle body are clean, no more of that excess oil drip and dirt and oil mix. Oil level is a good point but will not eliminate the whole stock breather problem.

Matching paint is only available from a reputable Polaris dealer. The hood can be adjusted along with the lower wings for better fitment. Why did you take deliver if it didn't fit? As for aftermarket, we're lucky to have some of the vendors we have - it's a very small market which makes costs higher than normal - but some of the vendors have been around a long time. Vendors don't need to give stuff away or discount in return for a homemade video showing the product. People make all sort of videos all the time - both happy and complaining. You're new to the Slingshot world - a lot of us have been here since day 1 - so most of what you are talking about is nothing new (both the good and the bad). It's a reputable dealer (hard to find) that makes your Slingshot experience a positive or negative one.

I put one on my bike. Before I did the filter would get really oily and drip all over the motor. After installation had no more problems. You know when it's time to clean it. It will spit oil. And mine is not made like his I got mine from DK CUSTOMS. It has different layer of filters it come in at the bottom and has to work it's way through the filters to get out. And it doesn't spray oil all over. When it's time to wash out you notice oil spray on header. The same way if it was dripping out of your filter. As much oil that he is described it may have a blow by issue. Just saying

They make a sealed catch can, Hillbilly. If you are getting that much oil misting, you need a catch can. Old stuff vented to atmosphere. This is why BECAREFUL who you get advice from on the internet. By the why, it's Positive Crankcase Ventilation.
