Oil Tank Breather / Chain Oiler Query
Posted: Tue May 04, 2021 4:29 pm
Hi
I believe the 3/16"ish outlet on the top of a 1965 G15 oil tank is a breather and that it was originally routed to vent over the secondary chain as an 'oiler', is this correct and If so can anyone advise of it's route? (there's no mention in the documentation I have looked at, of a pipe equivalent to PN 026363 which is depicted and listed in earlier models).
I notice I have a hole drilled in the inner PCC casting to the rear end of the sprocket fairing which could be used to accept the breather hose, does anyone know if this is where it was fitted as standard or a later 'modification'?
Regards Mick
