[QUOTE="MADMATEMATT, post: 202977, member: 3773"] the valve between the oil filter and the pick up is more a "non-return" valve than a one way valve. it is more than likely located right at the oil pump and stops oil draining back down into the sump when the bike stops. this is to ensure there is oil to the head as quickly as possible. as far as i know all late model engines have them. you also have two oil filters in your sump on your model which will need to be checked. if they have blocked up then the oil wont be getting picked up and flow rate will diminish.
