Seen people talkIng about the stahlbus valves and fitting them to there bikes so As anyone here ever fitted one of these to there bikes and how do you find them it seems easier to do your oil change on a trip rather than cranking it open and carrying extra copper washes simply just attach a tube and out drains your oil

Happy user here. I have two fitted to my S10. They stick down more than a standard plug but are well covered by my bash plate. I especially like that you can use a plastic tube to drain rather than the garage floor which is my normal trick.

Brilliant. Threads in the crankcase can take a beating with regular oil changes and this avoids all of that (all well as having to find a new washer everytime.) Ever stripped an oil drain screw thread because you didn't have a torque wrench?
