Yes you just ****ed the motor up. If the oil level doesn't drop when you start the motor the pump is not working.


EVERYBOODY PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU KNOW WHAT YOUR TALKING ABOUT BEFORE YOU POST UP, YOU JUST MIGHT HAVE COST THIS GUY HIS MOTOR WHEN ALL HE HAD TO DO WAS TAKE THE PAN OFF AND LOOK!!
something is not adding up here. you dont break oil pumps from dropping a bike over. i think something more severe may have happened then was stated

Re: dropped it,help

there's a place where people who actually know about motors work on them. I'd take it there if you don't know what you're doing. better safe than sorry.

Re: dropped it,help

he was doing a rolling burnout, Maybe spun it that way bouncing off rev limiter? how good are you on maintenance, has the bike been overheated and then kept the same oil in it?

Re: dropped it,help

oil pump could have seized and broke the shaft during the burnout...or while it was on it's side sucking air. or something could have happened to the oil pickup. if the shaft is broke it was a pump seizure. what exactly caused you to crash and why'd it take so long to shut the bike off? I know I scramble like donovan mcnabb to get my bike shut off and back on two wheels when I crash...I can't imagine leaving it for a whole minute?

Re: dropped it,help

O snap! it ran on its side for a minute? wtfmate theres your problem. I can bet $100 bucks when you crack that engine open that the bearings on the opposite side it was laid down on are spun, sezied, or are way out of clearance spec. Your screwed, time to call up argo of jt motors.
