Hi Charley, It is encouraging to hear that I could safely run at higher pressure. I set the blow off pressure on my pressure relief valve in this following...
Hi Patrick, Perhaps I am making a mountain out of a molehill, I don't know. What bothers me is that before I made these modifications, I would easily get 60...
Hi Patrick, Early this year, I replaced the oil pump with a low mileage replacement that was in much better shape than my original. I rode with it in place for...

Greg, Have you tried different gauges or just one? Gauge connection is sound and open? Would there be any danger if you ran much higher viscosity oil (gear ...
Hi Ken and All Just a heads up on this mod........ If you are chasing less drag or friction in your motor, this will probably reduce overall friction by one...
Hi All One more tip with regards to the valve train. If you ever replace the bolts that hold the spindles to the rocker stands, make sure they are not too...
Hey Greg Like Patrick, I am less concerned with your current oil pressure, but don't like the drop in your oil pressure. On the T3 style oil pans, there are...
