Fitted quick shifter today and thought I will do an oil change while the bike was stripped. Quick-shifter fitted which I thought would be the hard bit so time for the oil change! Quite tough to loosen then suddenly really easy.... sump plug sheared Nooooooooooooo!!!!! So need some advice, thinking safest option is to remove belly pan but can this be done without having to remove radiator and headers? did think about easy- out but would be concerned something may fall inside. Gutted as wanted to try out the Quick-shifter tomorrow.
doubt you'll be able to remove sump with headers off (rad can stay there though) sump off would be the safest way,unless your confident with a drill in situ,but I know what I'd rather do....
The added bonus of drilling it out is this is still full of oil so any swarf should come out with the oil. Just go easy. +1 on the easy out.
Job done cheers Lads! took minutes can't believe the relief. really didn't want to drop the pan..........
