I am not talking about sludge, I am talking about stuff that was left inside the motor, silicone shards, famous Ducati baby teeth, some kind of fiber looking stuff like filter media, water pump gear parts...
Keep in mind my bike when I sold it had 2200 miles!
I posted picture of that sfuff few years ago in the thread about plastic gear failure, go search and you will see what I am talking about.
You get that sort of stuff with every engine. I just tore down a 1994 GSXR750 engine and found pieces of silicone inside the crankcase pickup filter, as well as some material that looked like clutch lining. The bearings were pristine at 27,000 miles, not even a scuff mark or scratch.
 
Just received notice from DHL that my gears have shipped. Says they will be here by the 9th which is in 2 days. I'll believe THAT when i see it. Customs ought to slow things down a bit.
