Finally up and running :baby: . I put in a 25284-11 SE plate/pump kit due to some wear on both. I am getting about 50 psi at highway and 22 or so at idle. It seems high but all is good as far as I can tell. Didn't expect this good of a pressure.

Is that hot?  And I mean good and hot?  What oil?

I have been running the Baisley spring in my 2013 vintage 120R SE pump and plate since 2015(ish).  I've been getting similar pressures (maybe a tad more) depending on temps.  That's with 10/60 Liqui Moly.  No problem yet and it isn't squirting out all over, blowing out my vents into the catch can or any sumping I can determine.

Yes, running highway for 100 Klicks (60 miles to those non-Canucks). 20W50 Lucas dino oil. Not pushing oil anywhere either.

A few days ago I was riding my '04 RK with 95"BB, 203 cams, SE A/F, Cobra slip-ons, and the SE Hybrid Cam plate and oil pump.  I was on I-70W from Glenwood Springs to De Beque, CO, for part of the loop.  It was hot, maybe 100F or a bit higher and CC set at 75MPH.  Looked down and the oil pressure was 45psi.  When I stopped the oil temp was 222F.  I think you're fine.
