First Service & Dealer says Stripped out drain plug! New dealer time!

My guess is that Rotax designs the engine and BRP designs the remote reservoir. The left hand not knowing, or maybe not caring, what the right hand is doing.

Too funny . Thats the not caring comment.

Isn't that the SOP with anything connected with a Rotax engine?

Seems to be spreading faster than a than Covid 19 virus and accepted as the norm SOP and A-OK :thumbup: with everything associated with a Rotax.


Something to Ponder on I guess.

Another crap dealer post. What a surprise. Just another reason I do all my own maintenance and repairs. In 55 years none of my motorcycles have ever been back to a dealer except for recalls. And they even screwed them up and tried to sell me work I didn’t need.

I replaced my drain plugs from the company below. A bit pricy but I wanted stainless steel.

i do all my own work also , an Oil & Filter change is a pretty simple job on most anything. and things like brake pads are fairly easy too just watch a utube video , or check your manual .

It is dumb of BRP to have the trans drain plug with 6mm hex and eng drain plug with 45 Torx plug. :banghead:

Reminds me of my experience buying a bicycle for my 4 yr old son. We lived in Pittsburgh at the time. There was/is a large Polish community there. This was back when ethnic jokes were the norm so of course there were a lot jokes aimed at Poles. I found a bike and really liked the way it was built, especially with real bearings for the pedal crank and not plastic bushings. Then I saw the name plate. At the bottom was "Made in Poland". I said I'm not going to let any kind of anti-Polish bias get in the way of buying a good looking bike! Well, when I got it home and started to put it together I discovered there were 12 places to use a wrench. The kicker? It took 9 different sizes of wrenches to tighten them all!
