this is the first time ive serviced it myself, just trying to change the oil..ive tried a torque wrench, huge spanner, huge spanner plus hammer, wd40, heating up to expand metal...
any suggestions?

You're undoing the right bolt, yes?
Duct tape is like the Force it's dark on one side, light on the other and holds the universe together.
righty tighy lefty loosey?
have you tapped the bolt with the hammer to shock it?

Tried going to the gym?

yes im turning it the right way, i will try hitting it with a hammer again in man mode. otherwise i guess ill go to mechanics and see if they will not rip me off considering its about 2 minutes of labor for them

Tried this ?

The propeller is just a big fan in the front of the plane to keep the pilot cool. Want proof? Make it stop; then watch the pilot break out into a sweat
if thats the same as wd40 then yes i have. its probably gonna easier to tip the bike upside down and drain through the fill hole, simple
take a photo of the bolt.
i am turning it the right way, i am a strong and clever boy and used all my htfu but this bolt is a cunt. i need a right angle hex thingy for drill maybe

I can see your next thread...
"How do I repair a stripped thread?"
When it comes to that please use the search engine, you will find a lot of threads...

ok thanks for the help

Well it seems you have tried everything...
My first suggestion would be...are you going the right way?
You say you are...
As has been suggested...WD40, etc...
Also the heat...get a hairdryer and really heat up the ali around the bolt...
I'm going to take a punt here and say someone in the past has already partly stripped it and it's now held in with Loctite or similar...
Good luck...

Go easy with the hammer, the drain plug screws into Aluminium.
And its anti-clockwise when viewed at the bolt head (looking up from underneath)

Is that the plug? (the one incorrectly called oil filter mounting bolt?)
Intelligence and education are three sides of the same coin.

Oh the fucks...
Mislabeling stuff like that can really fuck your day...
Took me ages to work out how to set the clock on my Duke...fucking Italians didn't know their A's from their B's...

in all seriousness
this stuff
loctite freeze and release spray. Freeze it for about 10 seconds, give it a crack to shock the bolt and it should come right out.
