hi all,

just been to take out my sump plug on my scorpa 250 '06 and the hole does not line up with sump plug.

i have taken the bolt out of the side which is level with the bottom of gear box,but only had about 350ml out of bike.how do i get the plug out without taken sump guard off?or is that the drain out on side of case.can't get spanner on sump plug,sorry can get spanner on but no leverage to get it off.and am i right it is 750ml back in?

You need a 13mm double-depth socket. One thing that might have happend is that a TYZ plug has been fitted. They are 17mm, some folk, me included, have fitted them as the Scorpa one's are made from toffee. I have ground out my bashplate a little though to alow removal.

Use 600ml of oil, see the post earlier by nitjay and his middle box.

Changed the oil amount after my type error to match the post below. :chairfall:

I can vouch for the sump plug being made of toffee, you cant grip mine anymore, another thing to get sorted. Its very hard to get the oil out of the other drain bolt.

Btw in my post you said 600mls of oil i think?

Also i got the middle box out, and looking at it i think everyone should take it out! To do what Birkett says and stop it rubbing on the edge of the engine casing, there is a huge dent in it. It says to round it off and put silicone layer to act as a cushion.
