Divvy leaking oil fron airbox

[sidewinder]

My 600 divvy is leaking a little oil from the air box. There is a plastic pipe type connection at the front on the fuel tap side where there is a little oil coming out after a run.IS there meant to be a pipe connected to it? if so where does it go please.

Thank you all for any help

I'm not familiar with the divvy, but a standard set up on bikes is to have the crankcase breather venting into the airbox, so any oil mist from here is taken back into the engine and burnt.

There may also be a drain hose on the pre-filter side of the airbox, which may be what you are seeing with oil draining from it.

A small amount of oil is acceptable. If there is a lot of oil then it is probably overfilled, and the excess is being vented into the airbox.

Some divvies do this, search diversion owners club, there is a wealth of info on there

Heres the fix from the Divvy owners club,

Crankcase Breather Pipe Oil Leak 600

block off the rocker cover breather (as on USA models) and fitted, of all things, a bit of garden hose to the crankcase breather. Same bore, but more robust and braided, so hopefully can't kink. I think the return of my problem came because the large breather was kinked. Having done the clutch today as well, I could see the CC breather is very well baffled, so oil shouldn't be able to get out through there, only gases.

Bodged an arrangement of bolt and washers to block the stub bolt in the rocker cover, and put a countersunk self-tapper in the T joint where that breather normally goes in. If the thread cut doesn't seal it, the countersink wedged into the end.

Just looked in my service manual, crank case breather hose is above and left of your oil filler,and it looks looks like there should be a drain hose coming from the left side of the air box, fuel tap side page 3.12 fuel & exhaust of the haynes service manual.
