Gearbox oil rises after riding in heavy rain

Apologies if this was covered but whilst the breather hose is a good idea, perhaps the real problem is one of the rear hugger not extending far enough forward/downward in order to prevent water/road crud from blasting this sensitive area....? (I see others have had similar problems with the shortenened nature of the front fender also).

 

Anyone aware of an aftermarket hugger replacement...?

Gio,

 

Yeah, the rear fender is the main problem. It let's too much water and crud past. Water is thrown right onto the breather. On another posting, Lex made an extension for the inner fender than covers all the way back down to the swingarm, solving this problem. As far as I know, there's isn't an aftermarket fender yet that addresses this problem.
