open road it may creep up to 30...at idle no more than 6-8. who knows how accurate the gauges are to start with-you got to figure they were furnished by the low bidder!

Depending on temp, but normally 10-12 at idle and 30-32 while riding.

Ok, I think I am good then, last night on the way home I noticed at idle it was sitting on the first dot on the gauge, at speed, almost at 12 o' clock
