- How to Removing the stock oil pump gear and replace with a high volume oil pump gear. Replace the oil pump cover with a Billet to prevent flexing and lost of the seal with high pressure. High Pressure Relief Valve allows oil pressure to reach 110 psi (40 psi higher than stock)

I hope I saved my motor on my new 2023 ZX14R, that I just picked up, because a month ago I lost my 2012 ZX14R(#3 rod bearing w/ 36K miles) even though I kept the maintenance up on it and the oil filled to the top of the sight glass. I immediately ordered the oil pump cover the day I took ownership of the 2023 14R, and once it arrived I installed it. Hopefully I'm covered this time around. Kudos for this video because it definitely helped me install the oil cover cover myself, when I would've sent it to the shop to be performed. Money saved and I learned something new...a win win in my book!
Good News !
remember to use JIS screwdrivers to locktite the 3 screws behind the clutch basket as they can easily chew out if you're a clutz with hand tools
ATTENTION everyone:Please check bearing retainer screws because the factory may not have loctite them they are behind your clutch. Three screws around input shaft also check screw behind shift drum. This should be a RECALL but, KAWASAKI is ignoring it I have found others who have had loose bearing retainer screws on the ZX14R. I'm in Canada by the way. If these screws are loose your gearbox is toast. Please check those screws it may save your life. This is a CLASS ACTION SUIT in the making. Please watch ZX14 transmission fix part 1. go to 9 minutes and then watch. KAWASAKI has ignored this for years. Please contact me here for info.
hey boss I really wanna by zx14r its 2021 but engine problems scare me is this common problem is this a good bike?
@@jadijada7887 I replaced my 2014 engine with a 2017 and had it inspected. The 2017 engine had a locking agent on the bearing retainer screws. I also had the screws behind the shift drum reapplied with red loctite and had the oil pump cover replaced with a thicker upgrade from SAE racing
@@jadijada7887 The ZX14R is a good machine but, it's weaknesses must be addressed. When put oil in have the level at the top of the oil window okay. It is most likely that the newer model like what you wanna buy has a locking agent on the threads for the bearing retainer. You only have check one screw to see if there is any but, also check your screws behind the shift drum and loctite those. It is not a expensive endeavor.
maybe I should just buy a Busa lol@@davidwalters3849
@davidwalters3849 in this video if you go to 3:47 are you talking about the 3 torx bits holding the plate around the primary clutch shaft? (Above the oil pump gear). I got a 2012
Thank you for the video Sir ! Have a great day Rockit.
Thank you more to come
Good video , very informative . Mine has been changed as well .
Yea, it's a good idea to get it done early.
@Rockit Dork Adventures which sensor controls the fuel injectors cam or crankshaft?
Good Video! Ive seen many done on this and you by far done the best video.
Thanks Jason, I have more coming.
Thanks for showing how to do this. It gives me confidence I can do it
You can do it!
thank you 👍
Helpful video dude . Were can I get that bike hoist stand ? Or one like it. it's awesome

Great video! Very helpful. My question is about the lift you used. What brand and how much?
Thanks for the comment and inquiring about the lift. This lift is amazing and I recommend it, I bought from ABBA Stands out of the Essex England. I bought the pro lift package, paid about 1100.00 for it. abbastandsusa.com/product-detail.asp?item=pro-sky-lift-package&pid=47. If you have any more questions please reach out to me.
@@rockitdorkadventures6094 thanks again!
I had an accident on my zx14 & not heavy damage, scraping & scratch on left side ,oil pressure sensor was somehow ripped out (black rubber green wire found beneath bike) i got new sensor reattached wire. Bile stuck in neutral now. .. i cant see how & why this happened
Hey boss, I’m about to buy a 2021 ZX 14 so what exactly should I look for so I don’t blow my engine
I need to know if i should do the relieft valve gear and plate or just the plate or just the plate and releif valve. Ive seen some people say on forums that the gear causing more circulation had theyre (stock) oil pan dry? Im not sure what to do ive already bought all 3
I have not had any issues with running out of oil in the pan, the gear will spin faster for more volume means more pressure. The relief valve increases the pressure as well. If you are worried about oil starvation then just replace the plate and relief valve. the plate is main issue and flexing and allowing oil to bypass and starve the rod bearings.
I’m not buying this whole oil pump mod thing, reason is my dad & i since 2006 have had combined 9 different ZX-14’s & not one suffered any sort of oil psi or bearing issue, combine that with a good friend that has 2 ZX-14R’s that are used for his iron butt association competitions, he has put tremendous miles on each of those bikes & due to the nature of his rides go 10+ thousand mile oil change intervals
I understand that it doesn't happen to every bike, this has happened to others in the right conditions. I am just offering prevention in the event the right conditions are met.
Hello, can you tell me how you changed the gear on the oil pump shaft? Thank you
Yes, this needs to be pressed out by a hydro press
@@rockitdorkadventures6094 Hello! thank you very much, now I understand how it works 👍💪🏻
I wish I knew about this before I lost my #rod.
What year is ur bike thinking of buying a 2021, ZX 14 after watching this I’m not sure
Oil topped off and still blew up?
Hello, I have a 2021 Kawasaki zx14r, I would like to do exactly what you did to your Kawasaki, could you send me a link, what parts did you buy for your Kawasaki? and I have one more question - I replaced full exhaust Yoshimura R77 did you put copper washers under the elbows? I did not use copper washers as Yoshimura recommended and I have a slight leak from the elbow on the first and fourth cylinders, the leak is subtle and rust-colored
Please lmk
Thanks
I did not use the copper gaskets as Yosh said not to use them. I have no leaks, maybe reseat the pipe and proper toque. Here is the link to the oil pump system

my 06 zx14 has a ape pump cover upgrade,,,i do not race the bike,,but do like hi-speed runs on occasion,,seller says he uses motul 7100,,bike has 13l miles,,,my dealer says they rarely see any zx14's or concorse come in with issues,i do keep the level to top of fill line,,,does my bike need a new oil pump????? i would never attemp myself,,,
If you have not had an issue by now, then I would think you are ok. This may not happen to every zx14 but prevention is key. Safe travels
The links in the description send me nowhere…
I want to do the mod now on my 06...but do i have to change the plate,gear and valve...or can i only change the plate ???
you can just change the plate. The gear and pressure relief valve is to increase oil pressure more than stock.
So dos the spacer already exist or do i have to get one with the mod?
What spacer are you referring to? Everything I replaced came with the kit.
I figured it out as I continued whatching the video lol thanks tho
What did u do for the crank gear on the clutch basket
You don's have to do anything to the clutch basket gear. The pump gear is smaller, this will causes the gear to spin faster. In turn this creates more pressure with the pressure relief value. Hope that helps
U didn’t show us what u did to the oil pressure reg valve ?!
Karl I lost the video on that section. I did show the oil tube in the vise, you just remove the pressure regulator and replace it with the higher pressure one. Its pretty straight forward. If you have additional questions let me know.
Hello, please tell me, did you change the drive gear of the pump?
yes
How about 2008?
I believe you should change it on all zx14 2006 and up
Is this a must for casual street riding?
short high rpm cycles you will not need to worry, but as we all know the bike comes alive after 5k rpm and up. Any extended time in the upper rpm range you should change. If you're just touring and driving casually I would not worry about it.
so they dont make this for zx10r gen4?
I not sure that zx10r will need to replace the pump and back plate. I believe this a zx14r issue
Surely if you’ve changed the gear for a smaller one on the oil pump you’d have to replace the the drive gear for the clutch to oil pump for a larger one? If u did u didn’t cover that !
Hey thanks Karl for the question, you only need to change the oil pump gear. The new oil pump gear and clutch gear mesh to create a gear set. The stock gear has 35 teeth and the upgrade is 32 teeth. The gear will spin faster off of the same clutch gear. Hope this helps.
@rockitdorkadventures6094 how can they mesh if sprocket is 3t smaller I don't see how even if it works it must be uneven wear 🤔
@@richardwoodhouse8397it fits fine you have to understand gears
