Got a 93 ZX-11D with a problem. The oil light comes on at idle. As soon as you pick up the throttle it goes out, above 1200 rpm. It doesn't do it when it's cold only after it warms up. Yes, it's full of oil up to the upper line. I'm thinking maybe a clog in an oil line or a worn out oil pump? It's got 21,000 miles on it. Any ideas?

Worn parts, less oil pressure...heavier oil maybe. You don't say what weight you're using. Heat expands parts causing more of a gap between those parts.

replace the oil pressure sending unit. happened to mine too.

jbsmd....I'm using Silkolene 20W/50 semi synthetic oil. Been using semi synthetic since break in.
zedx11....Someone suggested that to me but I didn't hold to much faith in that person. Now hearing it for the second time I probably should look into that. Is there a way to test the sending unit? or is it a cheap part?

[zedx11]

I don't know the price but I don't think it was that much.

you can get a ballpark price from places like bikebandit.

I think it's cheap enough that you won't need to test the old one.

It's probably too late but my switch was filthy as all hell.
I removed the screw, cleaned it up, packed it in die-electric gel.
Now it works like a charm.
I would try cleaning it first before you drop any coin.
Good Luck

Just got my ZX 11 back from the paint shop and it cost me $1400 frame polished and a custom paint job as well..I am posting a few pics but I am also putting chrome wheels and swing arm it as we speak... I am having a small problem can get the axle bolts off the front and back any one know what size nut and bolt that are on the axle..

They are 12mm and 14mm allen heads. Go to a specialty tool store to get them, Lowes or some place like that wont have them. Get the kind are like a socket that go on the end of a ratchet.

Surely the oil pump isnt worn out unless the previous owner never changed the oil. Mine just turned over 23,000 and the only thing I have done is just routine maintenance.

[jbsmd]

Did you ever get to the bottom of the oil pressure prob? Was it low idle speed not sending enough pressure or sending unit needing more pressure to deactivate the light? Just courious

[TimRFA]

Does anyone know if a Laser Pro D'or is a good exhaust for a 1992 C3 ZZR1100. Or any better ones out there? Thanks

Sorry for the long delay, I didn't recieve any e-mail responses from here so...
Anyway....YES problem solved. I removed the switch and it was greese packed and filthy so before I bought a new one I cleaned it up and replaced it and WOW it worked. Thanks for the responses. OH and this is a California model and yes the RPM was running a little low (1,000) so I bumpped it up to 1,200 and it's running better now.
