Greatminds...

I think the Japanese attraction to the V7 is somehow related to the Marusho/Lilac V-twins of the 50s and early 60s. Regarding "catch cans", did a very elementary variation of that on my 650 Yamaha, which being a 360º crank, had tons of oil mist (653cc exactly) pumped out of the breather each rotation. Fabbed up an alloy baffle and connected hoses from the OEM "Y" splitter to the countershaft sprocket cover. In three months, rode 15K miles through 38 states with zero lube and one chain adjustment.
