    Smll amount of gas from breather hose (1988 gs450)

    The bike is a 1988 gs450 with pod filters.

    Ok so i took the bike out for a ride and had the breather hose tilted up a small amount and when I moved the hose down I noticed a small amount of fuel drip out of the hose. I then moved the hose so it would be pointing downwards and didnt not fuel actually dripping out, but there was smoke coming out of it. Is this normal ordo I have an issue? I checked compression recently and the compression was fine.. Should I be worried?

    There will be moisture in the base, this will get boiled out and come out of the vent tube as the engine gets warm. If its tilted up there will be a spot where the moisture will gather and when you tilt the line down it will drain out. I wouldn't worry about it, Unless your crank case is full of fuel but then you have other problems :P
