If The Low Oil Pressure Indicator Lights - Honda 2007 INTERCEPTOR VFR800 Owner's Manual

regularly, you should never see the low oil
pressure indicator while riding. Normally,
it will only light momentarily when you
turn the ignition switch ON. Occasionally,
it may flicker at or near idling speed.

If the indicator comes on while you're
riding, don't ignore it. Pull safely to the
side of the road. If possible, pull the clutch
lever in and coast to a stop. Stop the
engine as soon as it's safe to do so.
