My Sporty just had a rebuid. My problem is the blow-by. The manual tells me to have the blow-by go into the carburator but it blows some oil through there and when I turn off the bike some drains into the cover and leaks down the bike. I have had others tell me to take the blow-by tube and run it down under the chasis. My fear is it will blow down and onto my back tire which of course is a bad thing. Others think this will make me loose compression and blow seals. Any suggestions??
