Default Oil Pressure Guage Kit

Does anyone have the Oil Pressure Guage Kit that bolts to the rear rocker box cover?

The guage I'm referring to is on the far right, 5th down from the top "Oil Pressure Guage Kit".

If so, does it hit your inner thigh with your feet on the forward pegs or highway pegs?

Not at all. My pants where it bunches up might touch it but I dont feel it on my leg. Your leg kinda flows over the outer side of it. Its a good addition and easy to do.

I should also add that I have a Deluxe w/highway bars/pegs

I've been looking at one myself and have wondered the same. Found a nice looking setup on ebay. Anyone out there used this model?

eagle1eye, I bought one a few months ago. good fit flawless. guage is liquid filled.alot cheaper than ness kit. The bracket that holds guage to rocker box is not as nice as ness . ness is chrome billet aluminum while jerzee is chrome steel.

Thanks so much for the heads up. I really like the ness kit but don't think its worth the price. I'll probably go with the Jerzee kit.

I just have the stock forward controls, but I do notice my leg around my knee area brushing the bracket once in a while when I'm stop and feet on the ground. I installed the HD gauge + bracket with the Russell braided oil line and adapter, I would'nt trust the HD plastic line with 200+ oil temps.

Just went over to the Ness site and checked out theirs. Boy, much nicer bracket and it appears their bracket holds the guage in closer to the motor. You guys are right though, a bit pricey.

Anyone know if the TC88 guage will work on a TC96? If not, I will give them a call this afternoon.

I know when looking up the kit for my 07, the part number 75133-99.I believe the tc88 and tc96 kit works on both..HD list kit as tc88 but the part # is the same for tc96

If you lifters are pumped up and ain't clacking, you got pressure. The bike has an idiot light, I don't see the point of a gauge, especially one in a place that makes you take your eyes way off the road to check it.
