 Engine oil is like blood in the veins. Running a bike too low or without will ultimately lead to engine seizure. Engine oil is like blood in the veins. Running a bike too low or without will ultimately lead to engine seizure.

     * Wet sumping occurs when the crankcase fills up with oil. The crank has to turn in an oil bath when it's really designed to run in open air. The crank running thru the oil heats it up and adds lots of bubbles. It also really cuts down on the available power. The scavenge pump picks up the oil and sends it to the oil tank. The hotter the oil, and the more air bubbles in the oil, the harder it is for the scavenge pump to move the oil. So, the oil collects in the crankcase even more.  ((blacksmith_wills of the XLFORUM http://​xlforum.net/​forums/​showthread.php?​t=73243&​highlight=sumping&​page=2))     * Wet sumping occurs when the crankcase fills up with oil.
