My bike oil tank was empty. I knew it just had oil change before I bought it. After starting it for the first time I have owned the oil tank is full and was not pulling down while the bike was running. Is the tank supposed to have oil while running or should it be empty. Ran the back for five minutes no horrible sounds  of engine damage actual ran great after kicking it for five minutes. Now starts on first kick. All pipes were hot to the touch all felt the same  So do I replace the oil pump drain all the oil and 3 1/2 of new and see what happens. I am new to a oil tank system use to looking in a sight glass and seeing the oil. Any help would be great.
