Hmm .. I'm curious to see what the respected engine builders have ta say about this one ..



Idk .., I personally wouldn't run with out one ..



I know the 70's have a little bigger oil pump .. I'd at least run that over the 50 pump ..

yeah its just that i dont want to have to take the clutch off.

I ran the stock pump with my stock head 88 kit. No problems for over a year. Then the bike was stolen. Now I hope it blew up.

did you ride the thing hard everyday ?

I had the R-Stage 88 in mine and a friend has the 95cc Superhead and ran em with the stock pump with no problem.

Well i have one in my Stage III 88cc kit. But honestly, i'd rather buy a HV oil pump than i would buy a whole new 88cc Stage III kit later on down the road. Its better to be safe than it is to be sorry. Its amazing how much money a cheap part can save you in the long run.



My 2 cents



PS: Would u rather have a rear sprocket guard on your crf50. Or would u rather have ur shoe string or even your foot get caught up in the sprocket? Personal preferrence, but i know what i would rather have. hehe



PSS: Have u ever seen a stretched gixxer break a 530 chain. Well i have, and guess what?. He didnt have a chain guard on the swingarm. You wanna guess where his chain ended up at after it broke and came around the rear sprocket. It came around the sprocket, through his rear tail section, and wrapped around the passenger foot peg (luckily he had it folded down). had he not had that passenger peg folded down. That chain would have went through the stator cover and taken off his left foot....Once again, a cheap ass chain guard would have saved him alot of money and hassel for that matter.

For inner peace, install a HV oil pump. It's cheap insurance.

I talked to builder who said did need. Its a honda and they will hold up. One even said no point to run an oil cooler in a 124se motor. it will be interesting to hear them chime in though...removing the clutch is so simple though its 4 screws and the clutch nut. Its the fact you have to remove the whole top end and drill out the oil pump hole that feeds from the cylinder/head to the pump itself or theres no point in the HV oil pump as it wont squeeze through the hole...
