Default Oil drain plug location?

Ok, I am working on a 2002 Fatboy. Which plug do I pull to change the oil? Pics if possible please.

Suggest you use the search feature and/or get a manual.

I used the search and nothing came up. That is why I asked and it is not my bike so why would I have a manual for it. I am just helping a friend who got back from Iraq last night.

follow the rubber hose that leaves the oil tank, it is at the end of this hose :-) Probably terminated in a piece of the frame real close to the right pass footpeg.

look at the bottom of the frame under neath the oil tank, it is near the rear leg jsut in front, it is a hex head bolt 5/8 socket and has a allen key fittin inside asweel

the gear box drain is up under between the 2 shocks, it is also a 5/8 headed bolt

the primary drain is located at the rear, jsut under the derby cover, it is a torx fittin
