Hi,

I can find the fill plug, so it seems, but where is the drain plug? (see photos)

AW: There is none! see the following...

THANKS! (maybe some other english speaker will find the thread, and if I run into trouble.. I'll let you know how it goes.)
I am going to use a syringe and a piece of air-line tube (aquaristik) to draw out any remaining old oil to replace it.
90ml is the amount to put in.
Also, a recommendation on the oil in the photo would be of help.

There is no drain plug !!!

You will have to turn the bike as a whole
to use the gearbox oil port for draining purposes.
Remember: This lightweight bike was constructed in germany.
Therefore it can be turned upside down easily.
To provide safety, first drain the fuel tank.
Avoid smoking when doing so...

The gear oil was thought as a lifetime filling.

I don't believe there is a reason to drain the gearbox oil, but you do want to make sure it is full. Just keep filling it until no more will go in.

There is a special tube that replaces the plug. It allows you to fill it higher. It is German, they can't help it, they have to keep improving things

Where is the special tube available and how useful is it?

The new plug (original equipment) [as the old one was so old it cracked when doing the maintenance] arrived from Herbert and it is working.

Hi

Like said before, there is no reason / need to change te oil in the gearbox. This oil wil serve a life time.

If ye bought a engine with crappy oil inside the gearbox. Like they put water inside the gearbox to fil it up. ( seen this before ) ye dont turn the whole bike arround like in, up side down. But ye take the engine out off the frame. ( with wheel and all ) When ye have the wheel and the engine out. ( this is very easy to do ) Ye can turn the engine arround like in upside down. Keep in mind ye will drain the carb also.

When ye fil up the gearbox with new oil keep in mind that filling it up until it run over is the wrong way. This way ye over fill the gearbox. I use a syringe with out the needle ( http://www.google.nl/search?q=injecties ... 24&bih=707) to take out the oil wich overfils it.

When ye put a screwdriver in the hole to messure the oil hight it should 2 a 3 mm no more.
