All 2014 and 2015 CVO owners watch your oil pressure. If it is below 14psi at any time you have a motor that is ready to blow. Mine just did. Harley is aware of the problem, they took 5 minutes to approve a new motor. Bike has 15k.

That's an exaggerated statement. Most 2007 and up fuel injected twin cam engines will idle with 10 lbs of oil pressure and not have any issues.

Extended idling with hot engine oil temps can be detrimental to a engine.

Once the oil pressure is to low for the cooling jets to spray oil under the pistons the damage can start from there.
