Default Oil Temp Dipstick?

Anyone using one of these?? I was wondering if they are worth the price? Not into the digital LED one but I do like the regular analog gauge...

Where are you seeing this setup? I haven't seen any oil temp. dipsticks anywhere for 06+ models... any links? I'm curious as well!

I think they must be smoking something??? Thats a pretty cool little gadget but way to expensive for me....I'm not sure how that LED display would hold up to the heat anyway?? I prefer the analog type...If I need to check my oil I pull the darn dipstick!!

Some say inaccurate and easily fatigued.

I have this thing where I ask myself, "Do I really want to know how hot my bike is running?"

It's nifty for sure, but I'd rather not obsess about it and save the $100 +. I do like the oil level sensor though...

Picked one up from Chicago H-D for $111. Got mine because my V&H wrap right around my oil fill, If bike is hot no way to check oil level with out getting burnt. Nice to just push the button and see the level. P.S. Chicago H-D is always 20% off H-D products!!
