Product Information

Full details

The Apico Clutch Oil Filler Plug is an ideal upgrade for off-road riders looking to improve both the aesthetics and durability of their motorcycle engine components. Engineered from premium aero-grade aluminium, it serves as a lightweight, robust replacement for standard factory plugs. While it offers a significant visual improvement with its gold anodized finish, users should ensure their specific engine casing threads are clean and free of debris during installation to prevent cross-threading.

FAQs

Will this fit my 2020 Gas Gas?

Yes, the plug is compatible with Gas Gas models ranging from 2002 to 2023.

Do I need to use a tool to tighten it?

It is recommended to hand-tighten the plug initially. If a tool is necessary, use it sparingly and ensure you do not overtighten.

Is the gold finish prone to fading?

The plug features an anodized finish which is highly resistant to fading, though harsh chemicals and long-term UV exposure can eventually affect the luster.

Does the plug come with a new O-ring?

It is best practice to reuse the existing O-ring from your original plug unless a new one is specified for your specific bike model.

Is this made of steel?

No, it is manufactured from high-quality aero-grade aluminium to keep weight down and prevent corrosion.

Troubleshooting

Plug feels tight while threading

Stop immediately, remove the plug, and check for debris or misalignment. Never force the aluminium plug, as it can damage the engine casing threads.

Oil leaking around the plug

Ensure the original O-ring or sealing gasket was transferred to the new plug. If the seal is worn, replace it with a new compatible gasket.

Installation

  1. Ensure the engine is cool to the touch before attempting to remove the old plug.
