every time my ttr 50 dumps it gets oil in the air box, sucks it into the carb, fouls the plug and requires air filter and plug cleaning. I know there is a breather hose from the engine to the air box to relieve pressure but is there an easy aftermarket solution like a check valve or something? PLease feel free to call if you have something quick...

Reroute breather down along back of motor towards swingarm and ziptie securely to frame. I put a vacuum plug on airbox were breather was.

Make sure you block off the nipple on the air box with a screw or something. And you will want to put some foam in the breather line or you will have oil in the dirt instead of your airbox.

Yeah when I sit the bike at 12 for too long my breather will start to pour oil out, I rerouted it again and it hasn't leaked lately but I haven't really let sit on the 12 bar long enough to give it a chance lol.
