Hey guys I am looking for a catch can for my xb9s. I am looking for the square one that fits by the oil cooler.

I recommend just letting the breather reroute drain to the ground. I started out with a catch can but after a while decided to remove it and find I like it a lot better.

neilrl79, this is how I have it now. It is just a hose that comes down my frame to the back of my tire. I have heard that the catch can will help and can create a bit more power, but there is no real specs on it.

The catch can won't make a difference in performance, it'll just add having to empty the catch can to the things you'll have to do to your bike.

No performance to be had by this, just keeps any drips off your floor. On my bike the petcock is so close to the oil cooler I had to bend the tabs down to be able to drain it. The performance your refering to is most likely from removing the lines from the intake box, which keeps oil mist from being drawn back in for combustion air.
