Did you loosen and remove the drain plug with your mind?

Where I live, we have enough gravity to pull the used fluid down in a nice stream. No need for a funnel.

Bunch of idiots..That's not a funnel. That's the new design drain udder plug Harley engineer section came out with. In in the 2018 maintenance section of their new catalog. Only $29.98. You just turn it 180 and milk it like a cow. Gives farm boys a sense of fulfillment. Like adding an egg to a brownie mix.

Big deal. I had an Ironhead back in the 70's that would drain itself. No tools, no funnel, no pan, nuthin'.
All you hadda do was wait.
