Someone posted this over on Wild Guzzi, and I immediately thought about oil changes on XBs. I would usually use tinfoil, but this looks like it would do a better job and be easier to boot. And it's cheap; I priced the size recommended for motorcycles, and it costs something like $10.69. Here's the link: http://formafunnel.com/ | ||

Motorcycle Consumer News evaluated it in their March 2012 issue. www.mcnews.com/mcn/features/48.last%20page.qxd.pdf It looks like a great idea. | ||

I saw it on BobistheOilGuy.com and I love it. Works great on keeping the oil off the exhaust. | ||

I prefer to"hit the hole raw" because funnels have dirt/dust on them when you are anal like me and have to brakkleen and blow them out before use.Guys at work were always amazed when I would refilled 1 quart dispenser bottles from a five gallon bucket and never spill a drop  | ||

Just zip tab. I'm a master(ish) tech and I'm the same way. I'm partial to the 2 liter cut for filling the oil. They almost fit perfect in most (other than Buells) filler holes! | ||

Back in the day .... Penzoil was 19 cents a quart in cardboard cans at Target. Oil fill holes were up front,right out in the open. How did engineering screw that up ??  I still have a can tap | ||

Zip, I have a dozen or so still full cans of oil I got when I emptied out my inlaws garage last fall. For some reason I kept a couple of my old can taps from way back too. Not sure what the heck I'm going to do with them but they are kind of cool sitting on the shelf. They haven't started leaking yet so I figure I'll just hang on to them.. |
