Oil Pressure

The relief setting is approximately 65 psi. When the oil is cold, it can exceed that. For example, at 32 F, upon starting my bike it went to 80 psi at about 2000 RPM. I slowed the engine back down, because it was still climbing. When hot, for example on the highway at 3,000 RPM with outside temperature about 95, it ran around 55 psi. At 1150 idle RPM, it varies from 25 psi when hot to 45 psi under normal conditions. This is on my Cafe Sport when it had 2500 miles on it, running 20W50 oil.
