Lotus

burp the oil filter?

600flipper

You got the clean air mod ?

bdhstunt

no clean air mod yeah i let the bike run and loosen the oil filter to regain oil pressure...

a piece of black eletrical tape over the light

Have you droped it on the left side yet?

Does this happen with a new filter? Some filters come with a bypass valve in them so if you don't change your oil and the filter gets clogged, the oil will bypass the filter.
Have you tried changing filters. I have an 04 636 and have smashed the **** out if it, never had this happen. I run the K&N filter and have had the stock one as well.

Just something the think about, it's a cheap thing to try.

bdhstunt

yeah no light just the right side

If you dont got the tip over sensor bypassed your good cause it turns off.
But if it stays running on the left side and you dont got the clean air mod you can hydro lock your motor

yeah ill give it a shot im due for an oil change n e way.. thanks

IMR-Merlin

Than again, I haven't had a cluster for 3 years either. LOL My bike never overheats even when the water is steaming out of it.

bdhstunt

right i have tip over hooked up still for that reason but i lose oil pressure when i drop it in the right side.... and it wont go off either.... unless ii do the filter thing,,

bdhstunt

do u have clean air mod?

IMR-Merlin

I've never heard of that. do you loosen it while it's running and "bleed/prime"" the filter?

IMR-Merlin

Nope. Doing it in a few weeks when I take the bike down for winter. I still have the tip sensor hooked up for now.

bdhstunt

dang i must have a bike built on a friday or before a holiday... lol

bdhstunt

yeah just for a second tho not sure but it works...thats the only way i can get that oil pressure again

IMR-Merlin

IDK, try changing the filter. I just can't think of anything that would CUT off oil pressure. I wonder if there is something that is messing with your oil pressure sensor and when you filter trick it, that purges the blockage away from the sensor.

strange wither way.

bdhstunt

thats what i think is happening... my bike prolly has iol pressure but there is somthing by the sensor telling the gauges other wise...

bdhstunt

thanks for the imput tho ill try kn filter and clean air mod...
