[QUOTE="escapefjrtist, post: 1415707, member: 238"] I installed a Fumoto on my Mazda6 a couple oil changes ago. Definitely makes oil draining easier and less messy. With 0W-20 oil, it still drains out of the [smaller] hole pretty fast. No leaks so far and works as advertised. As RfH says above, the valve [obviously] hangs lower so if it weren't protected I'd be careful. Zoom has a belly pan that covers up the filter / drain area. I've considered trying one on the FJR as I don't believe it would hang much lower than the existing casting protecting the drain plug. Still a risk if you run off a curb or other ledge. Don't know if the cost - benefit is there... Hopefully someone has one installed and can vouch for the clearance. ~G [/QUOTE]
