lol. That's a good tip. It looked better than that but got worse the longer I left it. Cheers

ive drained the oil tank and fitted a clear feeder pipe to the pump. The pipe didn't fill until I bled the pump whilst the bike wasn't running. I started the bike and everything looked great. A clear supply of oil in both pipes as per the pic below. When I stopped the engine a bubble appeared in the oil pump feed pipe. I started the bike again and the delivery of oil wasn't as smooth as it was straight after the bleed but it was being delivered to the carb. Do you think the oil pump is faulty? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you

you can see the bubble in the first pic just inside the spigot so it didnt appear it was always there. try bleeding again.
