, especially SDR for clarifying it all for me.
I suggest you do this, or at least check the cable before you start having problems.
I've done about 20min or so good ride in the damp so far. When I got back I idled the bike for maybe 5 minutes and no oil light came on! This is what I've done.
Here you can see the "before" pic; it's rubbing against the hose.
Here's the connector, rubbed through.
Here's the cable "insulated" with a neoprene fuel hose I had lying around.
Here's the other cable before I "insulated" in the same way.
And here it's partially "insulated"
And, here it is in all its overkill glory.
I've then zip-tied the "insulated" wires to the clutch cable in an effort to avoid the hot coolant hoses etc.
I also noticed that when I put the R&G upper crash protector back on, the bolts protrude on the back side, and they push the cables around, so I was quite careful to make sure that the cables were pushed below the bolts, and not on- or over the bolts towards the coolant hoses.
Seems to work so far!
Please improve on this if you have different ways you've fixed it and/or other suggestions. Thanks!
