Part 1 of the saga had to do with the oil filter:
Part 2 continues:
drain plug removed
oil drained
old filter removed
torque wrench on hand, for the infernal 16.5 ft-lbs
BUT!!!! drain plug's threads have metal between them!
Don't know if the last owner just tightened the hell out of the plug when he changed the oil, or if I managed to strip the threads, but the current situation is stripped threads.
My options?
Need help, folks.
Can't even think about how to get the bike to ... whichever workshop.
