Thanks Drbuick It wasn't easy but it's done. I didn't want to show the oil line and I also have a Road King so not much to put on front. It's not a perfect vision point but easy to glance at. Its mounted with a bracket I made to sandwich in between the passengers foot board and the frame. It has a cool factor to me. Thanks for all your help!!

The final parts for the plumbing portion of this project arrived. I will get them installed tomorrow. Still waiting for the correct electrical plug and terminals from HD. (These are are mostly due to my OCD for easy connect/disconnect under the tank console.)
1/8" npt female to -3 AN male---------To connect the -3 AN line to the sender.
1/4" npt male to -3 AN male------------This will be threaded in oil filter housing.
18" -3 an SS braided line----------------Obvious
-3 AN female to -3AN male swivel-----This help correct line routing.

I am done with my install for now, other than working with my 3d printer guy to make a different bezel/spacer. I am using a rubber spacer for now.
I also changed sensor position, I put the temp sensor on top of the oil filter housing and moved the oil pressure fittings below. I did this because if I ever have to run wide band O2 sensors in my headpipe there would be a clearance issue.
Everything installed, no leaks.

Just finished up a cam chest overhaul on my 17 RGU and wanted to be able to monitor actual oil pressure. Found this 1.5" mechanical gauge on ebay for less than $20.00. Whittled a bezel /cup out of stainless. Utilized one of the air cleaner bolt holes to mount the custom bracket I built out of SS. Had to make a custom fitting due to the tight quarters between the air cleaner. Has kind of a retro look to it.
