Here is the problem. Any ideas besides a full tear down?

you checked the tightness on all the parts you removed (oil filter and plug included)? it seems like its creating a vacuum when you rev which would tighten a leak and take away that light

 

did u check the service manual at the MIL codes..

 

If there was a leak would there not be oil everywhere? There is no fluids on the bike that would indicate a leak. The plug and oil filter are tight and this was a problem before the oil change. Also, the oil light only comes on when the engine is at operating temperature. When I ride the bike the oil light never comes on unless it is less that 2000 RPMs.

 

you need to check the actual oil pressure level but i have a feeling this is not a oil pressure problem.. this is what you need to do.. warm up engine to operating temp.. stop the engine, removce the crackcase sealing bolt and then connect an oil pressure gauge and attachment to the crankcase.. strat the engien and read the oil pressure.. 71psi at 5,400 rpm's then torque the sealing bolt back to 22ft lb's

 

I know I need to check the oil pressure. I still believe it is low. I think that the amount of times that I have blown the clutch has junked up the oil screen. I think that I am going to tear the right side apart sometime this weekend.

 

I just looked up the parts. Oil pump is 110 dollars. This does not make me happy. Hopefully the screen is clogged.

 

there is a oil strainer.. you need to remove and clean..

 

I vaguely remember needing special tools to take part the oil system on the bike becuase of how it is connected to the timing. Can anyone confirm this?

 

Besides an oil pump going bad, I would also look at a couple other things. The F3 has an oil pressure relief valve justforward ofthe oil pick up. My guess is that there is one on your bike as well and it might be have gone bad. On the oil pick up, there is a strainer and it could be plugged, easy visual check while you have the oil pan off. What about the oil level and what type of oil did you use (not questioning skills, just covering possible causes)? There could be an internal oil leak but my guess is you would of seen it when you changed the oil. Just in case, check your coolant. Make sure it's not a brown color at all. If all this checks out, follow up on bobjoezx suggestion also. Could just a be a bad sensor. If you do determine that it is a bad oil pump, bo here to buy it, it should becheaper. I didn't see a 954 listed but just give'em a call for the pump.
