most people just overfill, put the oil level to the top of the glass and run OEM semi synthetic oil.

Re: About oil pickup . . . .

just overfill the oil like .5qt maybe a full qt over, it will make it keep oil pressure when on one wheel

you don't have to worry about oil pressure tell you are scraping tail, and even then, as long as you aren't holding the bike on the tail for more then 20 seconds you have nothing to worry about

Re: About oil pickup . . . .

it's not really needed, and when you relocate it, it just makes your bike lose oil pressure anytime you do a stoppie

I have 44k miles on my f4i, I had a oil pickup for like 1k miles, but I lost oil pressure more often with it then without! Cause everytime I'd do a stoppie I'd lose pressure

Re: About oil pickup . . . .

if you overfill the oil slightly, so its at the top of ht sight glass, maybe a little more, it wont lose pressure tell your WAY verticle

look at my avatar, I'd have to go a good deal further back before my pressure light comes on
