[QUOTE="erik, post: 179240, member: 3674"] My Comet is not wet sumping at all.But!? What has the crank position to do with wet sumping? This is only on bikes with shells istead of rollers. In the shells there are sometimes holes which correspond with little jets in the conrods pissing oil on the inside of the pistons . If this little jet and the oil feeding hole in the crankpin is in line oil has nearly no resistance flowing in the sump. To my mind only the position of the oilpump can restrict the wet sumping on a Vincent,single or twin.Regards Erik [/QUOTE]
