    to fit what? sump plug? tranny plug? primary plug? if its not fitting try the next size down. if that's too wobbly try an allen key. get a mirror and a torch and have a good look

    have a look with the mirror and torch first. my bike has an allen key plug for the engine oil but torx plugs for the others

    and while we are here pauly why do you make irrelevant posts with a thumbs up sign? or + 1 answers? I don't get it. you said on another thread you get emails when you get a reply. do you like getting emails or do you just enjoy the little tune your mobile phone makes when you get one?

    Hi all

    It's for the front top engine torx screws, the king chrome tool is too tall

    We'll get a shorter one or 90 deg set like a Allen key or knock the torx tip out of the socket and put a spanner on it
