OIl pressure gauge.
Does anybody have the oil pressure gauge that mount's off of the rocker box on there bike? I have been wanting to get one but I am afraid that it will look "flimsy". I have only seen it in the package at the shop. The HD part's guy told me the line is a black and asomewhat cheap looking line. So does anyone have one on there ride and willing to snap a side and top shot of it for me?

RE: OIl pressure gauge.
I had the rocker oil pressure gauge on my WideGlide. It did have a cheap plastic line but I went to a local hot rod shop and bought a stainless nitrous line with the correct AN fitting and adapter. Looks much better than original. The mounting bracket is not flimsy at all.

Sweet, thank's. How much did that SS line cost you? Do you have a problem with it hitting your leg at all? It does not look like it would be a problem but I thought I would ask.

RE: OIl pressure gauge.
I probably ended up spending another $28 for the line and adaptor. Buy the gauge from HD and take the kit to your local hot rod shop to find the correct fittng size. I used the nitrous since it had red ends, if you want blue buy a fuel line instead. The gauge did not hit my leg when riding but ocassionally did at red lights but no big deal. *it does get warm.....
