hmm, I think I might just snipe that. just kidding I don't know where it goes either, maybe on the left hand side of the motor where you've got a large nut like the ones on the cylinder head.

An oil pressure gauge can be installed at the oil gallery plug at the lower rear right side of the cylinder block. BUT, it has to be a low pressure gauge, 0-10 or 0-15 psi since max oil pressure on an 1100 is around 6 psi. The one on ebay is 0-100.

It's good for engines with plain bearing cranks that run with around 40-50 psi oil pressure. The 1100 has a roller bearing crank that doesn't require high oil pressure.

The early Ks had built up cranks too. More likely the guage is useful for Hondas and Yamahas (XS11 etc)
