Some pics of my installation.
I used an automotive type oil pressure sensor, it's a universal fitment for many VW models, working pressure = 0.3bar. Straight 10mm thread (no NPT), but the area where it's installed seems to be flat and nice, almost like it was prepared beforehand to have the sensor there.
Also when working on this, it's a good time to check or better, replace, the oil seal (https://store.cscmotorcycles.com/OIL...-p/z13-121.htm) wich manages the oil sent to the inside of the crankshaft.
