I'm no NSR expert, but doesn't the pump have any links to anything other than simple throttle position? I thought all of the more modern autolube systems had links to RPM or Powervalve position or whatever too to ensure that oil delivery was adequate under all engine loads, revs, throttle positions etc. I really can't imagine Honda would let a machine out the door with a lubing system that would bring a heap of warranty claims? In my limited experience the NSR certainly uses a lot of 2T oil, so I really can't imagine the pump is inherently mean. And don't forget that modern oils are rather better than the oils the NSR motor was developed with.

I guess your system won't really do any harm, but wouldnt it be simpler to just trust the pump? Maybe do a survey and ask how many have suffered from lube failure when using the pump (assuming correct adjustment of course)? I have to say that personally I've never had any lube problems when using oem oil pumps on a pretty broad range of strokers.

Go on, free your self from anxiety and trust in the pump. It's really liberating
