Sumped. Whats gonna happen?
I am preparing to fire up my bike, and the engine is sumped. I intend to raise the front end and drain as much as I can, What is gonna happen to what doesn't drain?

It's going to find every possible way to puke it out, it's going to get all over the floor and piss you off.
Then you're going to clean it up, check the oil level in the tank, and go for a ride.

It sure won't hurt to try to catch as much as possible. Saves on cleanup...!
