Don't know about the 1000rr but this is a regular problem with bike engines and digidash. The tick over oil pressure is VERY low. My R1 is
around 5psi at hot idle for instance. Think there's ways around it in the digidash set up but I'll leave that to those that have them to
explain; I'm running the bike clocks and a separate gauge

Bike engines tend to have low oil pressure at idle. My R1 sees 5psi when hot
The digidash has 2 oil pressure warnings. Soft and hard.
Soft takes into account rpm values
Hard is triggered by the oil pressure switch. 7psi on stock digidash switch I think?
Take a look on the etb website for the manual on how to set the dash up

Hi
Same issue on a gen2 hayabusa and as I had the bike warning light wired in I diconnected the etb one.
Also on the advise of extreme engines who are currently tunning the engine, I raisesd the tickover to 1425 which raied the pressure and just made the
car so much nicer to drive

not sure on your engine but the gsxr should be about 10 to 15psi at tickover. on the digi dash as said you have 2 warnings but i see no reason why
the gauge should be wrong if you use the correct senders for the dash?
