Bobby, talk to the guys at West Racing that build the DSR, they use a
Kawasaki 1000 that uses a billet oil pan, and the stock wet sump, no dry
sump pumps. Better yet look at the website. http://www.westracecars.com/

Talk to the guys we turn left and right, you will get a different story!
Ask Bill Gendron at Small Fortune Racing, the current builder of one of
the
newest and best built DRS in the USA!

The only reason why the pans HAVE to be replaced is because of the
clearance. The Microsprint guys ran stock pans and oil systems in all the
Honda F2/F3 motors with no bottom end failures, and they run modified
alky
motors. The latest style road race motors use a very deep pan to prevent
oil starving when the bike is leaned way over...
There are several billet and modified stock pans that are available for
the 600 motors.
If you had no rule regarding oil systems, it would be to your advantage
to run a dry sump, they make better power.

I found this out from a M/C DSR driver:
One more cost to remember is that the stock oil pan HAS to be replaced
with
either a special pan or a dry sump ($$$) because the motor no longer
leans
over in the curves and the result is catastrophic oil starvation!!
Just add this to you total cost of owning a bike motor.
