The oil pressure at idle (warmed up) is right but the 18 lbs sounds really low at crusing speeds. Most will say that 30 lbs. is normal.

+1, and the bouncing may be normal as well. Is it just bouncing as you ride, or moving up and down as you rev, and lower your engine speed?

Don't remember what my old FL's had for oil pressure, but my ol' '88 Springer still runs along happily at about 8-10 psig after it warms up... idles at about 5-6 psig. Always has been at this pressure. The mechanic at the dealership warned me not to put a oil pressure gauge on it...said I'd pass out every time I look at it!!!
