Great idea! Thanks for your effort and concerns. I'm not mechanically inclined and I'm worrying about the oil overflow issue at 200 miles. I guess I'll have to bite the bullet and try to take this apart, empty the collection vessel and swap the filter. :scratch:

its one of those things the more your doing upper rpm pulls the more oil its going to accumulate. normal riding just be aware of it and make it part of your routine maintenance. If you make the T like I did , its literally a 30 second job

It's awesome that you started building this. Wanna go whole hog and add a chain maintenance section. I am shocked at the condition of other bikes chains. Shiver! Ha

I didn't think of it as a full routine maintenance page just maintenance that is a bit more critical on this bike because of the supercharger

lacking chain maintenance is an issue on all bikes , unfortunately
