XT600E oil line or crankcase air vent? help! urgent!

Hey guys!

I need help finding out where does this damn oil line go to

It's a thick oil line that goes into the crankcase right next to the E-start motor...

I think it's more of a crankcase breather hose than an oil line as there already is an thinner oil line that comes from the frame backbone (under the fuel tank) and fits on to the crankcase right next to this thicker one...

I'll take a picture and post it here so you guys can tell me what it is and where it is routed to...

5minutes!

Red circle is where the black tube I think is the oil line(or crankcase breather tube) and the Black arrow points to the thinner oil line that comes from the frame backbone on to the side of that other thicker tube...


I'm just waiting for this to fill the engine, put some gas on the tank and fire her up....

Think you'll find it goes to the air filter

Yup! you're right!

just saw it here:

post# 504 from OLAS

The XT600 Thread - Page 34 - ADVrider


Anyway, I've fitted that black part that looks like a small filter that is on the end of one of the breathers from the XT's stock carb and fitted nicely, a bit over the carbs..

I do need to get a small airfilter to fit in there instead...
Where can I get one online?
