    Fitted the Bypass to the Softy and made an oil pressure gauge up outa some fittings to see what its doing to the oil pressure

    well it has a Hot idle of 22psi and seams to hover around 45 t0 50psi out on the road at high rpm or low rpm

    This the bodged up gauge

    I have oil pressure and temp gauges on my bagger and there worth the money to know what the engine is doing through the summer months.

    What oil pump are you running ?
    Pretty close to the newer SE high volume oil pumps, maybe a bit higher.
    Do you know what the pressure was before ?
