Hey Joe, those oil pressures don’t seem to be far off … they match what I’m reading on my Sportster.

Sounds great Jod. Congrats... My oil pressure at lo idle 950 rpm, hot engine is about 15 lb and at 55mph about 25 lbs. NOW, I raised my idle to 1000 rpm and get closer to 18 lb. Thats probably not bad but I thought I would get a better SPRING for the oil pump to raise my over all pressure up about 10 more lbs. I would like 20lb at idle and 35-40 running at speed. Also at this hotter weather 90* I thought I might try 60 wt oil that the HD manual calls for.

Forgot to mention its hard not to stay out the throttle but after about 500 mi my engine started really kicking in. Patience. I Just put 1000 mi on today. Iv been shifting 5000 rpm max cause she just pulls that good and no need to go 6000 rpm.
