The bike is a freak thats my honest opinion
It no longer wet sumps unless the engine is running!!!!!! Then it pumps out of the engine breather at roughly the same pressure that it returns to the tank and it returns to the tank at a very consistent rate. Have taken the oil pump off, have "yet again" blown through all the oilways they are clear. It has to be a scavenge problem even if I can see it returning nicely to the tank. I took the sump off before starting it and no oil came out, it had not wet sumped since last taking the sump off. Started it, runs great returns to the tank and pumps out of the engine breather. Dropped the sump and over half a pint came out of the sump, the oil tank level dropped over an inch as soon as it started even tho the return looked good.
It can only be the pump or something wrong with the scavenge pipe in the crankcase. Broke the inner timing case gasket so fitted a new pump but cant put it back together until tomorrow when I get a gasket. If it still pumps out of the breather then its going to be another engine strip
Either way its very intermittent because I must have started it 20 times over the last two weeks and this is the first time its pumped out of the engine breather like it did when it was first built.
The only good news is that I have one of the shorter bike ramps so the rear wheel is in mid-air so to speak. When I was running it the rear wheel was freewheeling as I blipped the throttle and the good news is the breather lubricated my chain completely and my workshop floor
