There are lots of gauges available. I recommend going with an electrical analog gauge rather than a mechanical OP gauge with the plastic tube. The plastic tubes are not U/V protected and they crack after sun exposure. With the oil pressure at 35-40 lbs at highway speed, it can become a real mess real fast. The sender can be added to where the current oil pressure light sender is using a tee. I added an oil pressure switch to mine to switch off a relay to my headlight to keep it off when the engine was not running. This was done after I did a complete rebuild of the wire harness and built a modern fuse/relay panel for the bike with additional wires and relays.
