Sorry to ask this Henry, but where's Dennis thruout this whole thing? We haven't heard a peep from him! He built it. I'd think he'd have something to say about it! :nixweiss:

Hoist! 8)

Same thing I wanted to know, but didn't want to ask. Glad you did hoist.  :2vrolijk_21:

I've noticed before a tapping on cold start that goes away within a minute or so.  Figured it was a lifter bleeding down and pumping up after start.....and that may be another challenge.  Anyway, that went away.....for awhile.  It's back.....with a vengeance, but goes away if I allow the bike to warm at idle before riding.
Haven't been able to ride much lately.  Rode very little yesterday.......maybe ten miles, basically to Church and back with a long route home....if one considers ten miles long.

This evening I took my Sweetie out for ice cream at Sonic.  Same old, same old.  Start, taptaptaptaptap............until warm at idle, then no more tap, but it sure is sluggish.  This was REALLY bothering me.  Got home, checked the oil, one quart low.  Been 1200 miles since my last service.  I normally run about 1/2 quart low.  Put the bike on the lift, checked primary fluid level.  Good.  Pull the sump plug..........

22 ounces of oil drained out in 15 minutes, and was still "stringing" when I put the plug back in.

Sumping?  Yes?  No?  Some other challenge(s)?

Options?  Courses of action?

Thanks!

You shouldn't get any more than 6-8 oz out of the case. Any more, expecially 22 and she is sumping.
