Running upside down

[firehart]

Last weekend when I was riding my 200x, I lost contol of it and fell off. It bounced acroos the trail and hit a sagebrush and flipped over. It ran upside down for just a few seconds. I turned it back over and started it back up and rode it back to the truck. Today I am going to change the oil. Does it hurt it to run upside for just a few seconds?

not if the oil pump didnt get starved of oil for to long. if it died after a couple of seconds thats not long enough for lack of oil type damage to occur

My bike has been over many times. If its only for seconds worth of time. Youll be ok. The worst I think that would happen would be you could flood it with gas, and you would have to wait 5 to 10 min. before you restart it.

As the Jamacians say "dont worry mon" "no problem"
