I wonder how this happens to a stock motor. I understand how it would happen after a stage 3/4 upgrade with higher rpm and power outputs using the same pump but a stock motor that has been running well for 3K mikes and then Sumps. Logically the oil pump but then his has been changed. Anybody have any thoughts outside of the oil pump what could have changed or gone wrong to cause a healthy motor with that many miles to start dumping?

Not sure if there's a reasonable alternative but in Florida there is NO lemon law coverage for motorcycles. It's something that should be changed for sure with the cost of these bikes many times exceeding the cost of cars.

I'm in Florida, so lemon law won't apply to a motorcycle.
my friends bikes have since been "fixed", but I'm not for sure, as I bet I can get them to sump again.
the bikes affected in my group had mileage as follows
3500
1800
600
3600 - mine

"Magnuson-Moss Is Different from State Lemon Laws
Magnuson-Moss is a federal law and therefore is not to be confused with state lemon laws, which vary by state and apply only to defective vehicles such as automobiles, trucks, SUVs, and motorcycles.
Despite the different state-level laws, there are generally some basic criteria for what makes a vehicle a “lemon.” The new vehicle must have a substantial defect, covered by a warranty, that showed up within a certain period of time or mileage after you purchased the vehicle – and which could not be fixed after a reasonable number of attempts to repair it."
Good Luck!!!!

Thats a blacked out 17 SGS... Not a CVO no lowers
Front rim has double spokes, no stretched bags no larger speakers.
Secondly it has an aftermarket 2 into 1 , did that effect the warranty ?

common sense prevailed, they know that the exhaust has nothing to do with a well documented oil sumping issues.
