On my Ducati motors I use one of these crankcase breathers (which is more of an adaptor because it's hollow):

From this we run a 25mm hose up to an underseat "catch tnak" that increses crankase volume. Them a hose runs from that too the airbox and it is capped with a carbon fiber reed valve that closes after each engine pulse and in a sense created a vacume. Pic attached. This setup is goof for 5-7hp on a 135hp bike. It promotes better ring seal, prevets ring flutter and evacuates the crankcase so the pistons have a lot less resistace to fight during their downstroke. They even work better on FI cars because the push the rings into the cylinder walls. It also solves a lot of potetial leaks because of the low pressure in the crankcase.
I plan on modding my valve covers to accept breather hoses and I will run them to a catch tak like a Morosso or Canton.
