COP RUNNER, you are probably right, so if it is not that particular one then there is another 17mm plug that fits horizontally by the transmission. If you cannot find it I will try to take a photo tomorrow and post it.

COP RUNNER, I took pictures but could see squat.:bang head::damn angry:
That plug is located next to the neutral safety switch and under the shift shaft. If you look horizontally just by the end of the left peg. I personally never used it to drain oil and doubt the practicality in my case since to me with Mark's exhaust it shall be a royal PITA, however I am sure I read somewhere that if you use it you could drain some more oil. If you still cannot locate it I shall take a picture at a friend's dismantled engine.

This may seem a might excessive to some folks so during a recent oil change on Sallymax I did the following:
-warmed the motor up
-removed oil & filter and drained for 1 hour into a pan
-removed the pan and collected what dripped out over the next 20 hours
And this is it, the "bottom of the barrell," where all the crap hangs out!
I sure don't want to leave this in my engine....do you? :confused2:

I usually let mine drain for about 5-10 mins and then flush through maybe 1 or 2 cups of clean oil before putting the plug back in and wait again, this flushes thru most of the shit that's accumulated.

There is plenty of oil up in the valve area that slowly drips down. Had my pan off last winter with a warm engine and observed while working. I drain , when doing a change, for about an hour then stop. One of the reasons I change oil often, like 1000 miles! Who's anal?
