So I bought my BMW F650 Dakar from a Wild Dog a short while ago. Yay me!
As I normally do with new to me motors, I decided to replace the oil and filter.
So bike warmed up, drained the oil tank. Step 1 done!
Lay down next to bike to take out the sump plug, and see its a size 10 Allen bolt rather than 6 sided bolt.
This thing is torqued to hell, and with the limited space, its very difficult to get any good leverage. Short story long, the hole is almost completely stripped.
Short of welding something on to it, are there any other suggestions?
