89 tenere problem
hey all
have bought an 89 tenere in South America and was having a problem with alot of oil spilling out of a breather/discharge? hose that trails down to the rear wheel. The mechanic here has rerouted the hose upwards under the tank and popped an oil filter onto the end. Is this correct?
From what I can work out alot of previous alterations/hatchet jobs/crimes have been made/commited against this bike (long list) The entire air flow filter box being removed and replaced by 2 small air filters right at the carbs as opposed to the original design of 2 u shaped hoses returning to the airbox above. I want to replace both current filters and was wondering what would be the best option (oil foamed?) Space is very tight here and the two filters currently in place are pretty much crushed up into each other thus restricting proper air flow. I hope to hit alot of deserts here so any help with choice of filter would be greatly appreciated
thanks all for any help, already just searching here tonight on the hubb I think I might have discovered the answer to the the latest riddle of my forever disappearing oil with no visible trace mystery ( oil tank leaking straight onto exhaust and burning off)
i hope . . !
thanks again
fward
