Hi everyone,
So I started to do the first service to my bike yesterday, went to remove the oil drain plug and I couldn't get that f*%&er off! It is on there so tight and I put so much force on the socket that it put 3 cracks in the socket rendering it useless. The plug is now pretty stripped, I even sprayed it with some wd-40 and let that soak in a bit before trying to remove it. I have never seen anything on so tight in my life. Does anyone know how I can get this thing off? I'd hate to have to bring it to a dealer. I'm really kinda pissed and can't believe that this plug could actually be on so tight that it would break a socket - Never seen anything like it.
