Does anybody have any good or bad thoughts about using Fumoto oil drain valves in the Vmax 1200 ? They sell the 14mm x 1.5 pitch version.

I have used the Fumoto drain valves for over 10 years on various vehicles. Just to make oil draining easier. On two Miata's because had to jack up to drain oil because so close to ground plus hard to get to oil filter. Added remote oil filter to both and oil changes were a snap. Also added to my Durango over 6 years ago. No problems. Just be sure lever is in the correct slot and test when finished with oil change.

That said, I would not use on a Max or any motorcycle. No need and more likely to damage if something hits it while driving. They are better protected on cars/trucks. Also if damaged or leaks for any reason will spill oil directly on your rear wheel.
