I get about 70lbs cold with 20-50W with an Autometer electric gauge (sensor of the front case galley). Honestly I am not very happy with the gauge as it bounces over bumps (was steady when new and under 100 miles). Personally I think electric sender units aren't that good with the low pressures. Hot it shows about 10 but the pump is basically new with few miles on it. Wet sump bikes get low when hot but I think it is probably 5lbs higher. I bought it because that stupid oil light would come on for 3 gears under hard acceleration with about 145 RWHP.
  I was ....for lack of better words...called a fool by another member here for even thinking about it (oil pressure under hard acceleration with the light on) and calling it a "problem". This fool is doing quite well though. :lol:
