    How much fluid in catch can?

    Curious, how often do you empty your breather reroute catch can? I have the ASB catch can that I recently installed and it seems like it collected quite a bit of fluid in two weeks.

    Depends on humidity levels where you ride. Here in the Pacific North-Wet I its endless.

    I empty mine at the end of every ride...takes just a few seconds. Sometimes nothing comes out, sometimes the can is maybe 1/4 full (I have a pretty small catch can). Like mmcn49 says, it depends on humidity and how long of a ride.

    I drain mine every other fuel stop. Mine is homemade, so it is a different setup. Holds approximately 4 fluid ounces. Fills faster in winter, cold weather.

    Explains a lot... I ride early morning and evenings, so these winter months here in Southern California are a bit damp (foggy).

    It is an aftermarket part purchased to augment the breather tube reroute when you do the open airbox. I picked up my catch can from American Sportbike and it bolts to the front of the oil cooler.
