Are Oil Pickups Necessary?
I heard of stuntex oil pickups. they keep the oil up in the engine when doing a wheelie i suppose so it doesnt **** up the engine. is this a necessay part to have for your stunt bike or can u go without it and just add more oil? If it will save your engine alot of miles then im gonna get it cuz i dont want to **** up my engine so let me know

suzuki's need them .
hondas and kawis just add a little extra oil ,yamahas could probably use one cause they seem to have the oil light come on on real slow wheelies..

like people say a MUST have for gixxers
For other bikes its just kinda if you wanna spend $100 on insurance...
I just got one in the lsat couple weeks, and glad I finally did it.. Only $100, and I know my motor will have oil in wheelies..

first off.."coasters" are at idle meaning the engine with the clutch pulled in, so no, this will NOT blow ur **** up.
however, "rev-limiter coasters" mite be a diff. story.

Never had one on my F4i, never had a problem. Thinking about it though, just for piece of mind. But yeah, my brothers got a fixer and he needed one bad. Something about the stock oil pickup being in front of the pan.

had one in my f4i rev limiter coasters for three years with out a problem. sold the bike and she still runs like a champ. the way i look at it is Cheap Insurance. If i ever get another f4i i will have one in it

If the dyno test real testing goes good they should be ready in a mounth or less. Then we move 636 and others.

some yamaha's have oil level light, not oil pressure. so if the oil goes low the light goes on, but there can still be pressure. but you cannot be sure as there is no oil pressure light.
