A great bike (that sat on showroom floors) did not go over. 

The W650 Kawasaki was a flop too !

image-1.jpegThanks to everyone. Lucky Phil is correct. It is not a dry sump engine. It is a breather box. Blow by and vapors go into the box via the lower hose (front cover) ... any liquids hit a baffle in the box and return to the crankcase. The fumes/vapors go out the upper hose to the frame and fed to the throttle bodies. The frame on this bike IS the intake. 

 

I haven't heard back from GB yet but i am completely confident that this is correct. It is an odd machine and I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing anything. 

 

In the good old days we would just run a hose out to the chain for some extra oil. Or onto the road like the Batmobile. 

 

Thanks to everyone for their input. Problem solved. 

Best, 

Pete
