I am now trying to locate a parts list or drawing to see if I can locate an oil pressure sensor, or a list of the total warnings that the display is capable of showing. 2

I removed a bolt and a bit of oil drained out of one the holes when I was attaching my skid plates...it eventually stopped :) (and oil is still in the bike) 4

If I break one I don't want to be forced to buy two. Maybe the issue is just that dealers need to be clearer about what they're selling and what you're buying... 5

F750/850GS Main Chat board / Do I need to replace the oil pan? 750 GS 2020« Last post by bcbosch on Jan 26, 2022, 06.13 am »So was attaching a new Touratech skid plate...
Of course you have to remove some factory screws from the underside of the bike and use those holes to fasten your skid plate with the Touratech hardware. So I obviously removed the wrong bolt from the underside at one point, and oil began draining out. I replaced the immediately, but oil keeps draining out, no matter how much or how little torque I put on the bolt. 1. Is it possible I "puckered" the oil pan or the gasket by messing with the screw and reattaching it at a different torque from all the other pan screws? 2. Do you think it would help to drain the engine, remove the whole pan, and re-attach it with a new gasket, using proper torque specs and screw sequence? 3. Just say screw it and take it in? Any and all advice is appreciated! Thanks, Brandon 8

just got my first "real" motorcycle in April 2021. It's a beautiful 2020 750GS. I've been having a great time riding and modifying it here and there. Everything has turned out pretty well, until my attempt to add on a skid plate. Feel free to chime in on my current problem, which is an oil pan issue. All feedback welcome! Happy to be on the thread! Brandon 9

Most other bash plates are 4mm. 10
