KevtheRev Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 If you ever do strip the thread on the sump , a cork from a sherry bottle or similar can keep you rolling until you can fix it properly . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike1949 Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Cheers Drewps, this does sound interesting. I've bookmarked it to look into it in more detail especially the one where you can fit a drain hose. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy xs Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 looks like something else to leak, never stripped a sump plug there always well lubricated are't they. Drew you must spend hours just trying to find something to buy how many sump plugs have you ever stripped ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Campaman Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Can just imagine coming back to the bike in the car park with a big puddle of oil underneath where some toe rag has come along and drained it just for fun. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Cynic Posted January 26, 2015 Moderator Share Posted January 26, 2015 but its a lot easier to drain off the oil than trying to reuse/buy the sealing washer Mine is copper. Just re-aneal it. 2mins with a blowtorch. That just looks like bolt on trouble. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
