I don't know what the "bump" thing is...
I have done Google search but it's hard to read every thing just using my cell phone. But thank you for the link...
And I don't know why but the previous owner has one side of the fpr plugged... the side that points to the right side of the home... I won't be running it until I find the problem

if you bought it like that i would punch the PO in the face, repeatedly. The the fpr is how the fuel is put into the engine and returned. The side that was blocked was obviously the return to the fuel tank that wasnt used somehow worked its way into the crankcase(my guess). First make sure the FPR is hooked to both the intake and return lines. change the oil and start it and pray. i dont know what kind of damage gas in the oil can do but i know that a 2 quart overfilled oil pan will cause damage from being that full alone. best of luck man
Depends how long/hard it was run like that and how much fuel was in there.
The fuel thins the oil. Everything will wear down faster. Main/rod bearings, piston rings, lifters, etc. Ever hear about people tuning their motors for a high perf. build and then having a spun bearing or rings won't seat, etc. Usually because they're dumping gas right off the bat during tuning and they never change the oil a million times like they're supposed to.
After fixing the problem I would do a dry/wet compression check to make sure everything is decently okay with the bottom end and I would run thinnest oil possible for a little while, as well as changing it like after like 100/200 miles to make sure all is okay. I would also make sure the engine gets up to operating temp and take it easy until I know things are good for sure.
Oh yeah and I forgot about the tranny...I have no idea what this means for it or your clutch but once again be wary.

i just had this problem with a 929 and the fuel pressure reg fixed it. just make sure you change the oil when your done. a way to to check it is start the bike and pull the vacuum line off the fpr. if you see any fuel it means it is bad, should be dry. good luck
