As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

Oil pressure gauge on GS425e?

Hello,

I was interested in trying to install an oil pressure gauge on my 1979 GS425e and was wondering if there is a suitable location to mount it to. I have read older threads of mounting an oil pressure gauge on the larger 4 cylinder motors on the right side of the engine, but on the two cylinder motor, this location does not exist.

Here is a picture of the left side of the engine on my bike and was curious if the indicated location would work?

Best regards,
Aaron
 
Check in the service manual for where Suzuki recommends to check the pressure from. If that's the point, then yes.

On my 450, the place to check the pressure from is on the right side just under the ignition cover, and that would be a very awkward location to install some sort of pressure gauge and would require some piping up to somewhere more appropriate.
 
Thanks, Pete. I will check out the Clymer manual this week.
