crankcase breather cleanout?

got a mikes xs650 breather on the 850 was wondering if these things ever need cleaning out? i see it has screws to take apart...remember crankcase breathers on cars needed replacement ever so often......

They can get gummed up with condensated oil, just check that air is being breathed into the tank when the engine first runs.

Don’t worry about it unless you are bored.
