after working on a friend's 50, I noticed the oil pump was more to the front of the motor,

has anyone had a issue with burning up the crank bearings from lack of oil while wheeling of extended amounts of time?

No problems for me or anyone I've heard off. You just can't hardly tear one of those up!

Nah, you can wheelie for several minutes with no problem. Mine has prolly spent more time upright than flat ;)

has roller bearings in head and on crank, not near as dependant on oil as regular bearings.
