Do you process your own cherries?removed fuel tank one throttle cable was binding causing fast idle when turning bars to left so..... synched carbs fixed bind lubed cables all good now having some cheap char-donny wine mixed with tart 100% pure no sugar added cherry juice good stuff stabilizes blood sugar and help with arthritis too
The cNw breather is a reed valve breather. Highly regarded.Guys, what is this Reed Valve Breather? I see it a lot on this forum. Where does one get one? Do they have one for the Combat, and also a '74 850? I have a cNw breather already for the Combat that I still need to install, but wonder if I should hold off for this jewel of a breather everyone keeps writing about, on both bikes.
I get friends to hit the cherry trees at peak ripe time with ladders. Then they ( the cherries , not the friends ) go into mason jars covered in cheap brandy for a month. That's the recipe for happiness.Do you process your own cherries?
There are several kinds out there , some $ump mounted , I run the Mikes XS type , but have also fitted a cheapo plastic one in my poverty days. It's a one way breather , evacuating crank case air pressures on the way to the oil tank air re-circulation and closing this valve ( in between pulses ) to not let air re-enter the engine bottom end. Frees up horsepower and helps eliminate gasket and seal leakages / weepings of oil .Guys, what is this Reed Valve Breather? I see it a lot on this forum. Where does one get one?

If that's the version that connects in the breather pipe, I think I have the same and ditto, from HNW. Do you have a photo of where yours sits, I'm not happy with the high location of mine, too close to my K&N air filter.i have mikes XS650 breather on mine works great
Now that looks perfect. I'll have a look at mine tomorrow, to see if it would work for me. Thanks.here pics of mikes xs i used shortest piece of hose possible so breather inlet is snug against crankcase
Do you get any condensation with this setup?here pics of mikes xs i used shortest piece of hose possible so breather inlet is snug against crankcase
