    Fill plug

    I need a Final Drive fill plug. PO buggered mine up so bad I can't get hex wrench to work. Cut a groove in it and used big screw driver. Would like to replace it with a GOOD plug. (XS1100G)

    Send price shipped.

    Thanks,

    You can go buy them at auto parts stores. Then you get a nice hex head instead of that crappy allen.

      +1 to that! Be careful though, because most of the 14mm hex head fill bolts I've seen have a rather large head, and end up hitting the recessed lip around the fill hole. Get one with a very narrow head, and it will fit perfectly. While you're at it, get one for the middle drive too.

        Tray right next to the drain plugs has the tight fitting thick fiber washer gaskets.........double stack them for the final drive. Single sealing washer for the middle drive......
