Just as the subject says, on my 99 zr 600 efi it seems like there's hardly any room underneath the case for a plug, but I'd like to drain the oil before I take the case apart to check the chain. Any info is great, LET IT SNOW

Just put rags under the chaincase & pull the cover off. You'll need to clean up whatever spills.

You do now the plug would be on inside of the tunner? The first time I took the chaincase apart I didint see the plus on my '96 ext, after looking harder I saw it, its easy to see and I dont know how I mised it??

Like paintballdude said, look in the tunnel, just below the drivers. Should be a plug. Or take a suction gun and suck out the old oil before you take the cover off, as well as using the rags that IRS suggests... dang oil gets everywhere

Ok sounds good, where's this tunnel you're talking bout or the drivers. Sorry but i've only been in this sport a week. lol bear with me

The tunnel is the thing under you're seat, where you're rear suspension and track are. Towards the front the track raps arround sprockets that drive the track, the drivers. I atached a picture, its the view of inside the tunnel without the suspension, track and drive sprockets in place. You can see where the plug is suposed to go. IF this does not help try to get a service manual as it is a indespensible tool when working on you're sled. Also the chaincase is remouved from my sled thats why you cant see the plug, but it would be in that hole.
