1st time around the block w/an evo.  Putting Super E on a stock 1998 big twin (which is replacement for shovel in my 82 FXR).  I got this breather kit...

are there instructions or a diagram for this kit?  Didn't come with any and I have never actually had this Evo all together so i have nothing to go off of.  Not really understanding routing, or what goes where.  Have factory book but no help here...

this kit is the biggest piece of crap ever.  Cheap-O.  The crossover tube has the center to center measurement for the two banjo bolts too wide.  Both bolts will not go.  No way to bend it because it will just break.  Gonna see about sending it back to JandP and have to look into a canister type set-up I guess.

if one single thing ever goes right with this bike the world will come to an end

The first thing you see when you click on the link you provided, is a link to "Instructions"...

ahhh ok i'm blind then.  Still think this kit sucks though.  I found this S&S kit and if you scroll down past the first main picture the 2 black parts are like $10 more...

That is the improved kit I referred to. Put it on my head breathing '99 motor and ALL of the weeping/leaking issues went away. Works great !!
