Hi GaryTJ,Keep in mind that the Yamaha uses an oil LEVEL sensor, not an oil pressure sensor. It is there to tell you if the oil gets low, not if you loose oil pressure. They have a tendency to stick. It has happened once on my 1300 also. I stopped at tapped on the side of the motor and it went away and has not been back.
Very true, one nasty thing( amoung others) is with overfill you will end up with oil in your air filter compt. I do not know about other than stock, but that sure is the case with stock stuff. I have found just a hair below full works well.If there is too much oil in any motorcycle, it can make a negative impact in the shifting and cause other problems. Drain some of the oil, cold, and then put the plug back in. Then check the site glass when the motorcycle is level. Add fresh oil to the full mark. Start the bike. Run for a few minutes. Recheck the oil level. Drain or fill accordingly. Overfilling oil can cause some problems. Don't let this happen to your machine. --Zioo
