Stahlbus Oil Drain Valve
This is the most important item in my oil maintenance regimen: all of my bikes having had their oil drain plugs swapped out for a Stahlbus Oil Drain Valve. Installation is simple: Remove your old drain plug, screw in the Stalhaus Valve, torque it manufacturer’s recommended tightness, and say goodbye to messy oil change.
That’s because Stahlbus’ drain valve has a one-way check-ball. The weight of the oil aided by a stiff little spring keeps the ball in its seat and oil in the engine. But, when you need to change the oil, a neat little attachment push and twist 90 degrees overcomes the spring pressure and, faster than you can say Bob’s your ingenious uncle, warm engine oil will start pouring out of your bike’s sump. When, you’re done, twist the attachment in the opposite direction and then screw in the little machined cap that prevents dust and debris interfering with the check valve and you’re done. Even I don’t spill… much. Stahl
