Sump - making it low profile. - Macbusa - 16-08-2010
I'm wanting to lower the profile of my stock sump. The busa is lowered and i'm abit concerned i'lll punch the sump plug in if i have a hard landing from an unexpected wheelie.
It busa doesn't see the streets anymore. Do i have to worry about oil starvation or oil being pushed to the rear and starving on a hard launch?
Any tips or advice greatly appreciated.
Anyone willing to make it a low profile for some $$ for me?

buy a 2inch lowered sump with a swinging pick up least you that its right then cheap ways not always best.

You would have less oil surge probs with a proper low profile sump and swinging pickup , but even they would need mods to fit a full exhaust .
otherwise its not that hard to cut ~30-40mm off and trim the pickup and breather tube, but if you start getting into the 1.5 60's start shopping for better
try Pete for the cut and shut

If you really want a cut sump I have one from McIntosh with a new Brocks baffle I would sell. Was used on a turbo bike, previous owner went to a billet sump which I ended doing the same for the extra clearance.
