Anybody with an Evo'd Electra Glide??

....what does your oil pressure guage read between (high to low) as a rule...?

any help appreciated !!

Anywhere between 40psi to 0psi.

Don't panic, Evo engines need flow not pressure.

No Panic intended!!

Just that I have some guages from an FLHT '98 which will end up on my 98 FLHR and I wondered what to expect.

Now all I need to do is find the guage cups to fit the stock 2" guages...this should be fun, as I want to keep the screen bag and so, need to find two separate cups.

If anyone knows of a source !!!

Don't expect any degree of accuracy from these gauges

I replaced the sending unit on my bike and the oil pressure suddenly doubled

Did you use the stock sending unit, i.e the original Harley one, or did you use another brand??

I bought a couple of "Revotec Dash Top Mounting Pods" from Demon Tweeks. They are quite expensive and I have had to modify the brackets to hold the gauges in them, but they might do you. I am proposing to use them to mount a clock and voltmeter off an older Glide on my bike.

GRB -

Looks like we are leading the way eh mate??

I don't want to go for the centrally mounted type where there are 2 guages mounted side by side next to the handlebar lock, I would like one on either side of the handlebars, this style:

2-1/16" Gauge Cups

But I have been told that there is no way my 2" guages will fit

What do yours look like?

genuine hd so much for factory quality control

Now why does that sound familiar??

Don't think you need highly accurate calibration. You just need to know about change. Mine reads about 40 psi from cold and settles down to 20 psi as it gets up to operating temperature. In traffic it'll go down to 1 psi like Girlyglide's, just before I stop to let it cool down.
