Technically the ECU should see the oil pressure is low and cut the engine.
That doesn't happen. A red dash light goes on and the rider needs to notice it. Then he/she can determine a safe method to turn off the engine and get off the road. A device designed to automatically turn off the engine on a bike running at speed would be too dangerous.
Pat- 2007 DL650A was ridden to all 48 contiguous states. 2012 DL650A outlasted me.
Nicknames I use to lessen typing, Vee = 2002-2012 (K2-L2) DL1000s. Veek=2014+ (L4+) DL1000s. Wee = 2004-2011 (K4-L1) DL650s. Glee = 2012+ (L2+) DL650s
