Ohh they are hex. Count me in if you will ship to Canada. I will pay you $30. Wich one goes where?

 

[mxdj2003]

ill ship to Canada, there on egay in the gasgas section , thanks for letting me know about this site. Dave

Sure thing. Sounds like a good idea to me. Abything is better than the allen key ones.

I could be game for a pair of these too.
Do you know if these will fit through the hole
in a Flatland, (I believe), skid plate? Removing the
plate for every oil change would negate the
positive advantage of the hex head.
What is the O.D. of the seating flange?

And if I order them from FleaBay. Should I bid
on the item twice for two sets or just contact you
after placing the bid?
Thanks, Jeff so. Cal.

Just a minor tip to folks buying these....
Be "gentle" when tightening them. Since they are steel and 13mm hex, the weak link will now be your engine case. I don't want to see folks stripping out their cases from over-torquing the plugs.

Please don't take this post the wrong way and not purchase them. I think these are a nice idea. Just be aware that you now have the capacity for more torque on an item that only needs to be snug-tight.


Hey Dave,
Out of curiousity, why 13mm hex vs. a smaller size like 10mm, etc.?

 

[mxdj2003]

HI Matt , i was gonna go with a 12mm head but i figured 13mm was a populer euro bike size so thats what i went with, a few people have told me about possible overtighting issues with the steel bolt , which i can understand but every japanese make has steel drain plugs.

Please make some hex headed front axle bolts. (same size as the spark plug wrench)
It's tough carrying around that big allen head wrench.

Count me in on this one also.

 

[mxdj2003]

i could make an insert that goes into the hex in the axle and has a 13/16 head on the outside ,i could make the tool about an 1'' long so it will fit in your fanny pack nicely.

 

[gasgasman]

Good idea.
How about making a hex headed insert that you press into the allan head and leave it installed on the bolt.
