Bonneville America Forums Forums Technical Forums General Tech Low Oil Pressure

This bike now has over 111,000 miles on it. Rowdy as all get out, and rides like it’s on rails back and forth across Houston - mostly at night, always 80-90 mph. I found this old post by accident searching for help in changing the oil pressure switch. (I cannot figure out how to get a tool on it.)

It may well have been an oil pressure switch that cured the problem then - I can’t remember. But I’m very satisfied that there are no oil pressure problems on this bike despite the hard use and miles. I can’t help myself but to abuse this fine steed, it’s driving chain and tires every time I get on it. The grin cannot be avoided.

My ‘09 was bobbed and now sports a Thruxton tank and custom paint. Only slightly more civilized.

Splitting time between the two bikes and not really going anywhere the last few years, other than back and forth across town to see a buddy of mine, I’m still managing 6K/year, and riding 120 miles a week or more most weeks just doing that.

If anyone has any kind words about how to get that oil pressure switch off I could sure use it. It’s been changed at least twice before on this old bike but done in the shop and my shop has recently closed.
