I should be buying Pegasus catch cans in bulk, and making $70+ profit each off of all the ignorant eBay suckers.

(catch can costs $18 and comes with the fittings and clamps. That breather filter is a cheap APC brand and can be had from Oreilly's for $9 and change. The Buell emblem is a freakin sticker)

Current bid: US $100.00


Price $17.99

Pegasus Auto Racing supply.

I bought one last fall and painted it satin black, now they send their catalogs every so often.

Lube the threads on those hose fittings with a little snake oil and you could sell them for even more Pk.

Haha! You rock! I was wanting one of these, but the 62 dollar starting bid was pretty out there for a catch can. I have a PVC pipebomb one under the seat, but will round up a pegasus one now. Thanks!

At $17.99 someone is working for peanuts.

And now we magically have another person doing it who wasn't doing it before this thread was posted. I love how they reference the other seller lol.

Fess up. HAAHHA

I got mine from pegasus, and didn't even polish it. It was half shiny out of the box. I used a cool red filter from Autozone to match my bike. Total cost, with shipping and clamps, 30 bucks. Looks neato burrito too!

Thanks for the info, littlebuggles.

IMHO, the way to go with a CATCH CONTAINER is the OEM Black H-D 20W50 oil container ...

Have mine hide under the license plate bracket on my S3T ...

Have the head(both), timing plug, transmission, and gas tank breathers ran to it ...

I'm using a little black plastic jug that 2-stroke oil came in. Maybe 3 oz. capacity.

Total cost: $0.00

...call me frugal...
