Anyone know if this technique & device would work on an EC300?

Apparently on the KTM300's you can tip the bike to the side and unscrew the oil drain plug. With the bike leaned over, no oil will come out. Then insert this little threaded tube, tip the bike back up, and voila - oil drains cleanly into whatever container.
I'd like to use this for draining oil directly after a ride in the staging area while the bike is warm. I live in the city so I'm hesitant to fire up a 2-stroke in my drive-way just to let it heat up. Call me paranoid -- or just a considerate neighbor.
