The roadsters that were sold everywhere-else-in-the-world didn't have to
have the stupid anti-smog stuff that you guys have to have, so they came
with a blank where the breather goes. So this is normal.
On the breather tube thing, I don't know what the regulations are like
there, but like I said, we don't have to have them so we don't. As far
as I know Aus and Jap sporties don't run any worse than US ones!
Hope this helps.
