I got a couple of tiny slivers of magnetic when I pulled the trans drain plug. Everything else has been nonferrous a couple tiny slivers of aluminum in the bottom of the pan. Looked like casting flash or maybe someone got aggressive with a razor blade cleaning gaskets. There was a few bits of...

Nothing definitive. I pulled the pan and everything looked great except that shiny in the oil. Granted you can't really check the mains or much beyond rods and wrist pin play. I emailed Tim nash and he said he was getting 4psi hot oil pressure while he was testing for a low oil pressure light...

It does pickup with rpm. I'm pretty sure it's fine now other than need the clutch material flushed out. Years ago Tim Nash was developing a oil pressure light (there's a video on utube) I sent him an email and he said he was getting 4psi at idle. The low pressure was part of the reason the light...

The only thing in my pickup screen was a bit of gasket material probably from when the PO changed the clutch. It cleaned right up

That makes me feel better. I had another post on here were I had shiny material in my oil. After pulling the pan I believe 99% of what I was seeing is clutch material. The clutch that's in it looks brand new. It came with a ackro mid pipe, pcv, and I believe a dyno tune. It didn't have the dd...

On a gen 2?

Thank you. Mine is getting down to 6-7 psi hot. I haven't found any cause yet. Pulled the oil pump and it had some light wear, pulled the oil pan and found a few tiny bits of non ferrous metal but nothing really concerning.

I ran across and old post of yours about your oil pressure gauge. I was wondering what you get for oil pressure at hot idle? Thanks

The Oil pump looked great. I was able to reach #3+4 rod ends barely with the oil pump out. I didn't feel any excess play there. I'm going to drop the pan tonight if I have time.

I'd say it's on its way out. 7psi. Hot idle oil pressure. Manual says 7.3 minimum. I checked it with 4 different gauges, all within 1psi. It jumps up to about 45 psi at 3500 rpm and the needle starts to bounce +/- 4psi. I think I'm going to let it cool off and start by inspecting the oil pump...

Will the pan come down without dropping the exhaust? I just glanced at it a I can probably get the bolts out with a shortened allen wrench but it's pretty close to the exhaust crossover. Thanks.

I have an automotive test kit at work with a bunch of weird adapters. I'll probably go grab it in a few.

That oil was Castrol power1 10w/40. Now it has Amsoil vtwin 20/50 although it probably won't be in there for long. I don't really have a noticeable noise issue.

I cut the oil filter open with chain pipe cutter. This is the worst/most of what's in there. The oil color looks normal is sun light I think the muddy color is from the camera/lighting. It just has shiny very fine shiny in it. It's definitely nonferrous. I've put 2k miles on this bike. Plenty...

Between a little play in the clutch basket and the fact that it didn't have double clutch springs, the clutch looked pretty good and it came with a pcv I'm just hoping the previous owner smoked the clutch, changed it and sold it.

Ya, that's my plan at this point. I'm going to sync the throttle body's tomorrow and see what happens.

I checked today and the recalls have been done. Tps/aps harness and oil pump. Thanks. I'm going to play with the digi sync tomorrow

Nothing of note. The engine sounds mechanical when idling but I don't really have anything to compare it to. I do have a little radial play between the clutch basket and the gear it's riveted to. No idea if that's normal or not. It doesn't seem to react to a magnet so it's probably aluminum
