Title: Re: MAkin' a Hog dance... Post by Kris01 on 10/13/15 at 13:25:51 That can't be very good for the bearings! All the oil is sitting in the back of the engine most of the time. Anyway, he's a very talented stunt rider! 8-) |

I wonder if they have done anything to modify the engine so it can pick up oil at those weird angles? The Harley has roller or ball bearings on the camshaft and push rods....so those can get by with a less steady supply of oil than our bike can. And he sure makes that look like a light weight bike! |

Title: Re: MAkin' a Hog dance... Post by Tocsik on 10/13/15 at 14:29:35 Huh, guy's really good, that's for sure. And, graphics and red wheels aside, not a bad hawg either. That 2-into-1 exhaust sounds really good and it's setup a lot like a standard with minimal front rake etc. |

The dry sump system has a scavenge pump that picks up the oil from the bottom of the crankcase - the pump is large as it is picking up foamy oil that has been bouncing around in the crankcase and it pumps the foam oil into the oil tank. The oil/air mix separates in the tank as the air rises to the top and vents, and the oil drops to the bottom. The pressure pump takes oil off the bottom of the oil tank and pumps it to the engine....and it oils the moving parts. The scavenge pump picks up the oil at the bottom of the crankcase and the pressure pump picks up the oil at the bottom of the tank - but those places are no longer at the "bottom" when the bike is vertical on the back wheel. The oil will build up in the crankcase and be thrown around by the crank and rods, some of it will try to flow into the bottom of the rear piston/cylinder....and the pressure pump will keep picking up oil until the volume in the tank drops below oil pickup (which is now on the side of the tank). Once the bike returns horizontal the pumps will work to get things back to normal.....I don't know how many seconds it would take to get the oil out of the crankcase and back into the tank. Since he is not traveling at high rpm and drops the bike down occasionally......I guess it works out OK. I don't expect this to be a bike that makes it into our Mileage Hall of Fame! |

Title: Re: MAkin' a Hog dance... Post by justin_o_guy2 on 10/14/15 at 07:53:58 It may be modified with a weighted ,somewhat flexible hose to at least drop a bit towards the low end,, providing design has room for such. |

Title: Re: MAkin' a Hog dance... Post by Art Webb on 10/14/15 at 11:38:38 pretty sure that's having they do it in dirt bikes instead of having a fixed pick up its a flexible hose and after looking at my data usage from yesterday I don't think I'll be looking at too many more YouTube videos on my phone lol |
