Am I just imagining this, or is this a billet-topped baby bottle made into a breather catch can?

See: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Catch-Bottle-Catch- Can-Buell-M2-X1-S1-Others_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcatego ryZ35557QQihZ010QQitemZ200042871119QQrdZ1

Note, "Replacement and or larger bottles can be easily installed."

Yeah, it looks like a baby bottle, alright...

But it never occurred to me to run both breathers into a common can, then vent the can back to the air cleaner. If you mount the can low enough on the bike, gravity should keep most of the liquids down out of the air cleaner, and whatever misty spooge finds its way back up top ought to be minimal.

I'm envisioning a compact three-hose bundle, maybe with some cool milled aluminum separators...

Pretty cool idea!

(and to me it looks like one of those International House of Pancake maple syrup pouring deals.

A stack of pancakes, a sticky pocket, a little time with a brazing rig and a drill press, and you are ready to go! Yummmmmm.... Pancakes.......
