I have a heavy breather intake (with the correct breather bolts)
I have noticed after a couple of minutes of warm up and after a couple hours running down the road. Then stop and check the oil, I have swoosh sound when removing the oil cap.
The bike runs great and starts fine.

normal? Should I be concerned?

I don't recall ever hearing that before, but I never actually listened for it until today. I did not not hear any sound with my Big Sucker, and I removed the plug three separate times during the day. Maybe someone else with a Heavy Breather will reply.

I took the heavy breather off. Cleaned up what little oil that was around the intake. Started the bike and could feel the air coming through the holes in the breather bolts. Cleaned every thing up reassembled and test drove.
No more swoosh sound when opening oil cap. Will see what happens after few trips.
