Oil pressure thing

[Dallas]

Hi all,

Wondered if I could get some help.
Got a bit of an oil leak from the right hand side of me 1100GS, it's coming from the top of the engine just under the tank. Here there are two pipes connected and I can see that one of them is the connection to the oil cooling system (the rad at the front of the bike) but the leak is from the other one, nearest to the front of the bike. I've had a search through previous threads and I think it may be the oil pressure switch but am not to sure. I've found a piccie of it in this thread, 3rd post down and the bit to the left with no number.

I think it's a case of just removing it, cleaning and re-doing the seal, but would like to know what it is

Any help much appreciated

Ooops, that link don't work.
I'll try and correct it.

it's usually just the gasket that needs replacing - Not that unusual to have a leak from one of those oil lines

Cheers Steptoe,

I'll probably be doing that over the w/e.
