Hi Leigh,

Its a low oil pressure buzzer I setup, just a hobbs style switch and a really loud (really loud) buzzer so I can hear it over the engine and helmet and not look for lights or gauges.  I think I had it set around 15PSI.

The reality is with the wet sump you will have issues with braking and oil pressure which is "ok" but you want to make sure if comes back on with the power.

OK...I thought it might have been that. Do you have an Accu-sump fitted for oil surge?

No I dont have an accusump, I wanted to but darn those are big and I didnt want to hang it out front the rad.  In reality I have had the motor a fair bit and the short low oil pressure issues have not seemed to effect the bearings.
