Do it....Do it...

You shouldn't lose any oil from there..... just have the new bolt ready to go in just in case.

Given the positioning of the crank inspection window, I seriously doubt the oil level is as high as that bolt anyway.

If you're that worried about it, you could always tip the bike away from the bolt when you remove it and fit the new one. Thumbs Up

should be fine, don't go crazy putting the new one in and replace it with a OEM one.
