oil pressure?

[sofadriver]

how much oil pressure do these things have?
why don't Ducs have oil pressure gauges?

Cold engine:
at 7 100-7 300 rpm: at least 2.5 bar.
at 3500-4000 rpm: between 4 and
6bar.

Hot engine (140°C):
at 1100-1300 rpm: at least 1. 1 bar.
at 3500-4000 rpm: between 4 and
6 bar.

Why no gauge?

Probably cost.
They do have the pressure sensor and light, but it's usually a 'blown-engine' light.

thanks Speedog.
would a tee fitting in the oil cooler lines work OK to install one?

You could, it'd be best to do it on the lower line, as that's what's returning to the engine.

Even better, the original sensor location, as that's what's actually being delivered to the crank.
