Greg - I notice you said you need to stop making due to time constraints.
Is the market big enough to go commercial? If so then I can probably help you out but you'd probably need in the region of 50 kits.

Thinking more like this. Tap a 1/8" NTP thread straight down and capture the cross port going to the left side of the motor.
The screw in a 90 degree M/F brass fitting and attach the stainless hose running backward. 48" fits nicely and gets up to the handlebars.Comment

Ray where are you going to put a "T" that doesn't add two inches to the custom length oiler lines?
Anyway, I already have the Tap

@ wesmoon
Yes. You need to install GS750 oil pump gears to push higher volume and the little extra capacity that the top end oiling system adds.
@ Posplayr
I think it would be far simpler to take oil pressure off of the oil galley just aft of the cylinder on the right.
@ Salty Monk
I really doubt any other machine shop could make these parts cheaper. My overhead is pretty reasonable. And my time is cheap. Plus I like making things. But, I have a lot of other projects that have been languishing too long that I need to get started on, and finished. So At least for the short term, I've got about another 16 sets that are 99% done, and that will be it for a while at least.The Three Horsemen

I could put them with our CNC shop in China.... Most likely would be cheaper than your own time but only if the volume was there.

Actually having tried the oil gallery already, I can say that it is not really the way to go. Running as I showed keeps the line hidden, low heat and is the easiest way to get to the handlebars.
The worst part of using a side port is that the SS lines cross (very unsitely)
So can a hole be drill down from the top to capture the oil port?Comment
