Hmm..

KFX400 (yeah I know its not a trike) but...

I just past my 10 hour break in, and drained the oil and changed the filter. I attempted to add oil to the engine through the dry sump reservoir......and it all comes back out. I can't even move the hose from the funnel out of the filler hole without it basically spewing out everywhere.

What gives? My local shop is closed, so I'm hoping someone can help me here...

IT is basically an air bubble. A buddy of mine got his raptor to drink the new oil by GENTLY turning the motor over a few times while adding.
