So I had a lightbulb moment today. My .325 k095 bars seem to be very hit or miss on oiling.
I saw @Timjus was doing some bar mods for a different platform, but had a common issue as mine.
All I did was cut a plug for the hole opposite of the adjuster screw. What it does is keeps the oil from running down and out by the bar stud. Apparently many bars have the groove cut deep enough that it pokes through the hole for the adjusting screw.
Depending on relationship of the oil hole to adjuster hole. You may or may not have a issue. But these gb k095 bars have been pretty frustrating to get oiled properly. The little wooden plug has increased the oil to the bar groove at least 10x. I can actually turn the oil pump down if I wish now.
