just finally got around to the first oil change on the 800 and no issues w/ the drain plug @all. i know a few had major issues, but both by oil filter(w/ a strap wrench)and plug came out real good. refilled w/ my 0-40 polaris oil that i still had and good to go. side note: just an fyi for people who thinks there radaitor is good and clean(like i had cleaned mine out last year after mudding)like myself, when i was under for the oil change i had a chance to look up to the BACK of the rad. and sure enough its still about 1/4 plugged w/ mud. so really keep an eye on these big twins as they run hot as it is and w/ the extra plugging from the mud makes it twice as bad.
