Why are there drain plugs on the crank case? there are three shown in the manual but what could they possibly be draning, its a 2-stroke?



Why is there a plug on the pull starter cover as well? No liquid goes in there so why put a plug?



thanks gixxer600

The one on the starter is to drain water if any gets in there. My Trail Blazer has it too.
I am not sure about the others.

I believe one is for counter-balance oil, the other is for tranny oil.

The one on the crank case is for draining in case it gets flooded with fuel. Can happen if you dont shut off your pet ****. The above posts explained the 2 others.
