no oil pressure

[cynthiahuggins]

Hello,
I am a new motorcycle rider. I have a 1991 honda cvr which shows an oil light and no pressure, there is also a grinding noise. Recently I had to set it down in the street and the problem started after that.
thanks for any suggestions

Well, this one seems pretty straightforward. The oil light and lack of pressure mean that your oil pump has quit pumping (assuming that you've verified that there is oil in the crankcase). The grinding noise is common when running any internal combustion engine without oil pressure. That's the sound of the engine destroying itself.
