Hello gang, let me start out by saying this forum has been one of the best places on line to hangout. I have an 08 Pitbull that I really like, but it has done nothing but confuse the hell out of me. This may take a minute. Bought the bike with 438 miles on it from a harley dealer while in afghanistan last summer. Got home in Sept. got a license and off I go. Bike garners tons of attention, and it is sweet. Only issue was the speed, which I have sitting in the box new; getting digital when they come in; so it will be for sale; Everything is OK, added new pipes, and many other accessories. Now the trouble, I ordered a HID light, it did not work, but Jake sent me what I needed, and not it does work except it goes out when I wrap on it because I can't keep it tight enough in the bucket because I think I my have taken it (aluminum ring)on and off way too many times due to the bulbs kept blowing because I did not get the damn thing tight enough:bang:. Fast forward to Nov. I am invited by the local HD guys to ride in the parade of lights. All was well until a guy with a 103 says I will eat the puppy alive, he had major work done to his bike and spit out some nice numbers. So I allowed my ego to get the best of me. So 3 weeks later the bike is in for service, and I had a 600, zero deck, and new springs added bike dynoed at 112 and 122 respectively, felt I had something for him. Get the bike home, had a nice day, take it out, its popping like a SOB and worse yet, it pinging now. Motor is sounding different kind of a whine sound in the bottom when you ride. So I call the guy, he makes a few suggestions and I have a problem. So I order the thunder heart, install it set at 2 Like Sachs suggested and by the way I have my stock pipes back on. Bike sounds like shit to me, but this is where I may be wrong, because i have no reference point, this is my first bike and I have no one other than the local HD shop who can work on it out in the middle of nowhere SD. Latest issue is that I did an oil change and I know I put in 3.75 at first but I cant get a f'n drop of oil to show up on the dipstick. Where is the damn oil going?:angry: I read the manual over and over can't figure it out. Added another 1/4 qt,I don't know what to do next, really wishing I had gotten the 67 chevelle instead, but I want to win this. I did use the scavenger so maybe I let too much through; but I don't want to over fill it.
