Hey Dave,

thanks for the help, where did you get the sender and where is it connected to. I see where it's mounted but where does it connect. I have a 07 RS and I'm not seeing anything under that area that would connect to it.

Thanks


Of course I'm not Dave but see page 1, 2nd post of this topic.

Re:oil pressure gauge 1 Year, 6 Months ago  
Check on PG-1 like Rphazen suggested. He has a real good pic of the pressure tap under the bike. As far as the sender just find the electrical gauge you want and buy the sender for that gauge. I bought my gauges from a heavy duty truck parts store. They are GB Instrument with a Stewart Warner/ Datcon resistance match. So if anything goes wrong with the sensor or gauge replacements are easily found.

I have my oil temp gauge sender installed in the oil tank drain hole.
