Basic Purpose of Oil

Motorcycle Oil System

FSAE System design

Wet Sump

banking in engines

In a stock motorcycle engine, the oil is stored in the oil pan as an internal oil pan. This is called a “wet sump” oil system. On a motorcycle, this works during hard lateral turns because the motorcycle itself leans into the turn, allowing the oil pickup to remain submerged during the turn. In a four wheeled vehicle, the engine cannot tilt into the turn, and the oil is forced against the side of the pan.
