The oil is flowing slowly through the lines is due to the check valves passing. Lock wire on the outlet pipes, particularly at the oil pump end is bad news, due to its non spring effect - and very small contact area. The wire will 'spin' freely (and not seal the pipes) after not many hours of use. The new pump is fine for the lc motor, BUT it has to be shimmed to the correct spec. It gets delivered with the later (smaller) minimum stroke, which means its out of spec. for the earlier bikes. Replied to your pm. |
