Has anyone tried using a Suction method on changing out the Trans oil on a Cylone or equal?, I dont want to have to remove the Loctited down V&H Exhaust system, To get to the Drain plug!, Thankyou, J

I would think pulling the derby cover and sucking it out would get almost all of it, especially on the side stand. Then add it thru the small cover above the shift shaft after reinstalling the derby.

It worked!, but didnt get it completely out, Could only get about 3/4 of a quart in, But its good, I can run it and flush it again, PS, The suction pump was the red one from Harbor, Not bad for 5.00!

Fashion a drain pan/funnel out of tin foil and put that over the exhaust to direct oil. Works like a charm on these bikes.
