    Hi I'm looking for breather pipe between the crankcase and airbox for my 1983 XJ900. I've added a link below that shows a diagram of the part I need (it is number 21 on the diagram):

    https://www.yamahapartshouse.com/oemparts/a/yam/500423b3f8700209bc787b29/crankcase-cover-1

    I have also attached an image of the pipe that I need replacing.

    If you have one or know of the best place to find one then please let me know and I'd be very happy to purchase it. Unfortunately this site and others either do not appear to have them in stock or do not have them listed.

    I'm currently switching out my old engine and putting a replacement in and this is a component that needs to be replaced as my current breather pipe is cracked and hardened.

    Cheers!

    Hi Toomanybikes,

    Do you have any in good condition (no cracks, not overly hardened)? If they have the same dimensions then I'd be happy to get one from you.

    Wow, looks much better than mine! I'd love to get it off you if I could. How would be the best way to organise cost and postage?
