I just love the idea of dumpin' the oil back into the motor, but what a PO
did with my TR250 was run a hose down onto the frame...now if i had any
brains I'd figure out a way to run it all the way back to the trailing arm
sections. It would be just like a good old Harley!

Richard Good makes a neat kit for this. Instead of the rocker cover
venting to the air filters, this kit has it vent directly to a small
aluminum canister. This canister is built such that the liquids drain
to the bottom (and from there, a hose brings the liquids back into the
crankcase via the fuel pump mount [if you can do without the mechanical
pump by fitting an electric] or by welding a fitting to your oil pan).
The gases are vented to the carbs. This setup maintains negative
crankcase ventilation, without sucking oil and muck into your filters
and carbs. You can see it at www.goodparts.com. I don't have this
kit, but have seen it, and it looks good!
