Default high oil pressure

on my 2013 850 ho the oil pressure on a hot engine is 75 psi, the factory manual on page 5.3 states standard is 25 psi and min is 10 psi, then on page 5.4 in the oil flow dia it states 'oil pressure regulator + 85 psi' , if I throttle up I can see the gauge needle hit 85 psi, the regulator opens and dumps the excess oil pressure, could the oil pressure spec on page 5.3 be incorrect ?

Says the same thing on the 2011 model,but says different oil other than Polaris oil may show different results.Others that may have installed gauges hopefully might chime in.https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=...X_ysVbw3hniR7Q
