  • help with oil pump

    Don't want to discuss why, but it was necessary to remove my oil pump, along with several assorted large and small engine parts. The manual says to 'prime' the oil pump prior to installation. Can anyone tell me how other than turning the bike upside down and pouring oil into it?
    Thanks!

    Hi, unbolt it and take it apart fill it with oil then reinsall it. Leave your plugs out upon completion,then crank it over until the light goes out 2 to 3 time to insure u have oil pressure . gool luck hope your bike runs well, Mitch
