Z125 PRO Oil Pump Starvation During wheelies

Unlike the Grom. No "early" engine damage seems to happen for unknown reasons. Any wheelie over 28 degrees or so there is no oil feed to the head and the crank. Which would be any wheelie basically. The hose line shown was on the OEM main oil feed line to the head cut at the halfway point and attached and no oil was going to head as designed.

Thank you, good test video

seems like you could get away with 28d or just above; might be too low to ride-out/balance indefinitely anyway

Can you lift the wheel into the balance point please mate ? Very interesting video, and very thankful for your time and effort to make this although I think the knowledge to learn is from when the wheel is further back

There was no reason to test past 40 degrees because the oil feed has stopped. I did test at 55 degrees as the video shows because that was the average balance point I came up with

@@kaweechannel3884 not hating, I love what your doing but that’s not even close to balance point my man

[@kaweechannel3884]

@@itskuruptstunts I don't stunt. Is the balance point the same for sit-downs, no-handers, stand-ups. For all riders ? What angle do you suggest

[@itskuruptstunts]

@@kaweechannel3884 on Facebook I showed you exactly where the true balance point is in a video, you can hear the bike stall because there isn’t enough throttle..

[@itskuruptstunts]

@@kaweechannel3884 balance is the same it’s just weight distribution, for no handers you need to be just behind balance point and using the brake to keep it within that zone

You're not reving at all tho and only running for a few seconds

Any fixes?

No one offers a modified oil pump pick up line like those for the grom, yet that I know of but the Z125 has proven to be not as sensitive and damaging to engine life as the grom is. Unless you spend more than 1 minute long wheelies 75% of the bikes life it will relubricate the system every time the bike is back down for 15 seconds or so, therefore a safe idea to make sure you do and give it a chance to relubricate before bringing it right back up imedealetly especially while learning
