    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

For Kyler - sidecar stuff

This is the outfit this motor is going into. It's a pretty historic and well known one here in NZ. National champ at least once and when raced in Australia I believe it was 3rd in the Aussie GP.
When in that condition it had a very good FZR1000 motor with OW01 cams and flatslides...alas gone now.
 
This pic is the drysump setup Kyler was interested in. the sump itself appears to be a CNC production. It's origin is unknown - like a lot of sidecar bits it's been through several hands previously.
The incoming oil comes through the threaded hose fitting visible and feeds into what was the oil pump pickup - the hole with O ring groove and two screws beside it.
The scavenge pump fits where the water pump was and draws through a slot at the side of the sump, just out of picture,sorry. from the pump the oil of course goes to an external tank.
This setup is quite nice - in the past I've done similar conversions by welding the std sumps.
driving the scavenge pump this way means of course using an electric water pump...not a problem on a sidecar, plenty of room.
 
This pic should give a better idea how the scavenge pump sits and how it draws from an extension to the main sump.

To drysump your 750 Kyler, you'd probably have to belt drive a scavenge pump from the L/H end of the crank.
