TAKE NOTE!!! I only had the DK customs catch can on the bike for 1500kms. In that time 1/4 of the can filled up with an oily condensation. The thread inside the catch can which holds the filter element started to rust and deteriorate badly. I Would not recommend a catch can as it can also pressurise due to the breather holes being extremely small. If you do an external breather mod I'd definantly recommend going with a pod filter instead 👍

mine has water only no oil at all

The water would be condensation build up from heat being put into the catch can. My catch can thread started rusting on the inside so I ditched it and went back to a pod filter

My opinion, you should have simply removed the hose and let the cylinder heads breathe directly into the air filter

That doesn't really fix the issue. You will still have a hot oily mist going through your intake.

Need to mount it out of sight. Too nice of a bike to junk it up with that ugly hose. I’ve never heard anyone ask another rider, where’s your catch can?

There must be a better way , then a catch can

There's 4 ways to divert the oil from the heads. 1- feed oil back into the intake (the factory harley way) 2 - allow oil to drop onto the ground (not a great idea) 3 - run oil to a filter (which will require cleaning as when its full the oil will also drop onto the ground) 4 - or the most sensible way In my opinion is to catch the oil in a catch can.

@@victorgonza4528 that would require drilling and tapping the crankcase to allow a return line. Something I don't want to do.

I agree mate, It was actually a rubbish product. the thread inside the cap started to corrode after only 1000kms.
