    got hung in a traffic jam,bike got a little hot. and the oil pressure bottomed out. after i got moving again it would maintain pressure. and as long as the bike was hot it would shut off and start backup. but as soon as the bike cooled off,(over night). it will not start back up. any suggestions?

    Overheating can cause the rings to collapse. How's the compression?
