I tried to install one of the hein gerike magnetic sump plugs - couldn;t see how I could get a socket on there as the frame bars access - any comments on this welcomed!
Problem was that the thread was a lot shorter that the standard plug - and I sheared the thread almost instantly. Might have just been over eagerness on the first go at changing the oil - but I dunno. Ye be warned!
Luckily the standard plug being longer could still be threaded in and still holds oil back - otherwise...
