Default "O" ring

I took my road king back to find out why I lost so much power ,Bill discovered that the O ring in the oil pump was pinched and it backed up the oil causing it to lose power Now it runs great

Nobody bats a thousand. They fixed it.
It ain't about what you do, it's what you do about it.
