NC30 Tank Breather

[DAC]

Does anybody know whether it is possible to source a low profile right-angled NC30 tank breather adapter, in order to fit a Baglux tank bag without the standard breather pipe getting in the way, or becoming kinked and restricted?

Regards,

So, here is the solution!

RG400 style! Looks good.

Are you planning on tidying it up a little more? Id cut off the one end of that T piece and blank it up (some epoxy / araldite / jbweld type stuff) I think Hondas use of two pipes was a little over-kill (some kind of anti-syphon mechanisim perhaps?) but plenty of other bikes work fine with just the one hose, as do all the HRC tanks i've seen.

I cut a a couple of rusted out nc30 tanks apart the other week I think I have the pictures, there is a big plastic baffle rivited to the top of the tank to act as the breather box

Hi there,

Photos would be good when you have a moment.

Yes, I do intend to tidy it, now that I know it is a workable solution for touring. I like the standard look otherwise.

You can see the fuel overflow from around the filler hole is small pipe that runs to the bottom of the tank (which as you probaly know then drips onto the airbox lid and down the rubber pipe connected to the airbox lid.





The breather itself is fed from a plastic box, just a small opening in the end of it, presumably to stop any fuel getting out.

Thanks for that, interesting - much appreciated.
