Don't worry too much, You didn't loose oil pressure without the O-ring. I just didn't all pass through the oil filter. It looks like they will send you the O-ring and a filter.
I feel stupid thinking that it could have been loosing oil pressure after thinking about it, but it definitely wasn't allowing the fine screen filter to catch the debri. I changed the oil, but will change it again after another few miles, so it can now catch anything too small for the coarse screen.
My bike was a day late getting here because they had the bill of laden mixed up the had the house number correct, but had the wrong street. When I called they had a Debbie as the person on Affirmed Drive. I actually had a hard time finding an O Ring.that diameter, but thin enough. I eventually had to buy a kit of O Rings at Advance Auto to get one. It was basically $6.00 after tax, but at least I could ride. While riding, I went to thinking that I could have took the o ring off the outer groove, and put it on the inner groove, and used a thin paper gasket on the outside. Oh well it's fixed, and I went on a pretty good ride.. The power is fantastic on the bike, but it has a dead hesitation right off idle, especially when cold. It acts like a carbed bike not really warned up, but idling alright, with the choke open,but might fie if you touch the throttle . Other than that I like it. Here are a few pics, but I'm not really going on any rough terrain on my new bike yet. They are the old bridges at Sarvis Fork, and Little Creek, and some from up on the hill between Tug Fork, and Buffalo Lick. I like the way the sun is above the bike in the one picture http://
