Mike Rocket
Rocket 3
This is my 2nd Rocket 3 and if the bike stands for a couple of weeks the engine oil level drops below the baffle plate in the oil tank.
My other rocket done the same so I am assuming this is normal On that bike the oil level dropped out of sight after standing for 3 weeks so as both bikes do it I assume it's normal but on starting the engine the oil pressure is instant and the tank refills straight away so the scavenge pump is doing its job.
If I was to replace the non return valve, as both bikes are like this I suspect it would not fix it.
Both bikes are 2014 Roadsters with around 11000 miles on the clock.
Running on Castrol 10w 40 Fully synthetic oil.
Any comments on this. Do your bikes do this too.?
