    Pinned oil pressure guage

    I just fired my 1100/1168 for the first time after installing a set of 750 oil pump gears. I have a VDO 15lb. oil press. guage which is pinned at anything over 1500 rpm when cold. Will this damage the guage or should I get one with a higher range?

    I ran one on my otherwise stock GS1100G and it would be pinned or darn near when cold too. But once it warmed a little it would drop down to around 3-4 lbs at idle. Never seemed to hurt it.
