They don't have them.
I just vented my breather out to atmosphere (long hose drops down the engine bay to underneath). You could put it into a catch tank, if you want, then reroute into the intake.
Stops the intake filling with oil and makes them go better too.

Your motor must be getting tired, like mine (it's done 300km+) but still goes sweet.
You know it's getting bad when the dipstick wont stay in the tube :wink: I've seen that on a few that have done lots of km's.
