You're not going to believe this, but I can't find the bolt/plug to drain the oil from the engine. The only possible culprit I can see is a 1" bolt near the bottom of the engine, but I would like some conformation first, as it wasn't a cheap bike. So if anyone has any advice, or better yet, a picture, then please let me know.

Many thanks

Andrew

Make sure it's the right bolt, there's 2 on the bottom of the engine, one lets all the oil out, remove the other one and the engine falls out! Shifty

look at the bolt, if it appears to be as low as you could possibly get a bolt and that it has some form of washer/seal then that is the sump plug

Couldn't find the XL125 on Bikebandit.com, bit this is from an XR100R (US market)

The drain plug is number 12
