Subject: TL1000 Crankcase Pressure causing leak

Ive just installed a TLR engine in my TL1000S to replace the self destructed engine (3 rd gear broke up).

Runs great but it became clear that excess crankcase pressure was causing the plastic clutch cover to leak.

Now fitted the TLR improved crankcase breather with hose from top of rear cam cover.
Still leaks slightly & when you remove the oil filler cap you can feel the pulsing pressure.

Happy the with the engine, no faults, no burning oil or leaky rings etc.

1/ Is there a well known mod for improving breathing of the crankcase of either of these models?

2/ Are they renowned for breathing problems ( I know about replacement covers, I dont want this route, the same cover was good on the original TL1000S engine).

3/ Im convinced the crankcase breathing is insufficient??

Many thanks
Rob
