« on: June 14, 2024, 04:53:04 AM »It will be in Portland! I came up with the breather as it was missing. But I believe the breather tube to be original as it appeared to have been mated to the carb for some time. Plus it was about the only way it would work given the space constraint.
I suppose it would lessen the amount of 'dirt' getting in . You might have to be mindful of shirt and coat tails , unless it needs a bit more choke .

Very nice , Tom .
I have to ask ' what is that tube behind the seat on the right side and in front of the fender ' ?
Seems to be a mild velocity stack .
