My Tiger is 40 miles away, waiting to have its oil and filter changed before being put up for the winter. As such, I cannot go out and look at the drain plug for the oil. When I last changed it a year ago before putting it away, I am sure the size was different than my Legend, but I can't remember if it was a socket or a big hex driver?
My tools at my storage location are slim, so I need to take the wrench with me. Can someone steer me in the right direction?
I was smart enough to get both types of crush washers. :icon_wink:
if it's an allen head ............I think it's the same as the rear axle hex and adjusters .
12 mm allen
it's probably the allen head wrench as only later ones like 98's had the hex cap
but just in case bring a few different sockets and a ratchet , ie . 15mm 11/32 17 mm 14 mm one of these will fit
I'd check mine but all of the bikes are in a storage unit for winter , looks like a tiger den I tell ya .
4 black ones and a pimento red one all huddled together trying to stay warm ..........brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr !
My 96 Tiger has 17 mm hex on both drain plug and filter.
My 96 Steamer 17 mm on both drain plug and filter.
Thanks fellas!
Mustang, what's up with the red one?
Sorry, meant to confirm my 95 uses a 12mm hex, just as Mustang guessed.
