Well, I was hesitant on the OSR, because they couldn't assure me that I wouldn'y run it dry holding the bike wide open for 2 miles.

However, I have yet to hear of anyone having a problem with one and I suspect they work great and reliably.

I know very little about the Adams modified stock pan. Did you call them? 3/4 of a quart is actually a lot, imo.

adams has the stock baffling. this is the pan to get. I think the extra oil has contributed to keeping my engine alive. As far as clearance. Its flush with lower fairings. Its set-up for the 3 inch ama ground clearance rule. Clems pan is cool for a street pipe. But i wouldnt waste money on it if ya have a sidewinder.

On the running the pan dry theory. Why not improve drain back to the pan?

Scott, it's really a non-issue, I believe. The OSR pan is just a stock pan that is cut about 1/2" for ground clearance. I'm just conservative, and I didn't find a need for a lower pan last season.

Here is the OSR pan:



The above photo is of the stock pan (left) vs. The OSR (right). You can see that the OSR pan is cut flush to the oil filter, just like the Adams. It looks like the same ground clearance as the Adams, but with less capacity.

How is that?? The Adams and the OSR are both flat at the bottom of the oil filter....that would make for the same ground clearance.

He was probably refering to capacity. Looks like the osr pan could use a side piece added like I did to my pan. Just to remove any doubts

The OSR pan supposedly loses 4 ounces compared to stock (which you can offset with a larger filter). The Adams apparently gains 3/4 of a quart. So, there is the difference.

The OSR is designed to run with a normal exhaust, not a sidewinder.

I guess I am just having a hard time justifying a 1/2" shorter than oem pan (minus the guard) for a sidewinder. Where is the big gain? I'm sure it will work for some setups, but it is not what I have in mind for mine.

My oil pan won't work with a stock pipe but works with a muzzy and hindle street system probly more. Holds approx 500 to 750 ml more than stock. I bet you could do the same thing to the osr pan

theres lots of room after you get the stock pipe off. it has really long primary tubes compared to some aftermarket stuff. im guessing the 14 is similar
(i usually keep it wrapped so it doesnt heat up the oil pan)

Woppi, I haven't run them on the bike yet! I was waiting until I installed the nitrous, which will be this season.
