Actually, the oil pressure switches are a known problem. When they start to go they flash intermittently.
Antoine - You can borrow the one off my spare engine to test that out if you like - I used it on the road monster when I bought that cos it had the same problem, so I know the switch is ok.

That doesnt mean an oil cooler isnt a good idea, just that you will probably still have the problem after you fit it

Cheers people, it's good to see so many people trying to bring solutions...

Paul: haven't read your U2U yet, will do as soon as I finish that message
Chass: Could you ask your sponsor for a price all included? (cooler + lines) knowing I will get rid of the heating kit...
Alan: guess what, I'm not even sure I will fit the shiny belt covers, now I'm worried gravels or stuff like this could go into the belts... Soon for sale I guess...
Lucie: ... ... ... ... no way
Phil: now that's an idea. I will try using the switch from my road bike. But then I really don't think it's a switch problem, as it always gets on at the same moment, when the engine is very hot (after a race) and I'm slowly going back to the pits (so the engine is not really revving).

I would be very interested in a kit price too Alan please, now I've seen the oil temp on the monster after a good session, I'm sure that the SS is even worse as it always revs high after a session - so I will be looking to sort them both out.
