| Posted : 17 May 2011 - 19:28 Post title : Oil temperature stick | | Just to share my last mod:
I have finally found an oil stick with an temperature gauge I was looking at: I use it during my week-end trip and never get higher than 80 -85 °C, but it was in the 20°C outside with lots of rain.

| Posted : 19 May 2011 - 05:17 Post title : Re: Oil temperature stick | | I found it on a German site : Link Its ref 10034194 / RR 81 / YAM TDM 900. It was the closest to our oil stick dimensions. I just add 2 marks with a metal wire to indicate lower and higher oil level. Not so easy to look at when driving, but I found it useful.
By the way, any idea why can't I add link ?
Cheers.

I'm not sure what you are doing that doesn't let you add a link, but all you have to do is post the full URL including the http:// and the forum software will automatically make it a link within you post. Let me know if you have any trouble and I'll see what I can do to help.

It has a threaded part that is similar to the one on the stock oil deep stick. (measured it with slide caliper to determined the diameter and thread shift).

| Posted : 17 Nov 2011 - 13:30 Post title : Re: Oil temperature stick (Re: Ultimate38) | | Many thanks for info, will get such a gauge-stick for my winter project of installing oiltemp, oil pressure, and voltage indication. Was even thinking of water temp, all depends how long the winter will be . At the moment we still have some good riding days, so working on the bike have to wait.
