No need for an expensive molded piece of plastic to catch oil spillage while changing your oil filter. I just re-use a piece of aluminum foil to catch and drain oil into a larger drain pan.

 

I bet it helps with your bike turned on its head.

 

Whatever works, I say.

 

Buy the drain thing once and figure how many yrs you'll use it

 

I use plastic place mats and cut them to the useable size with a small indent for the oil filter mount. I also punch holes in the filter at 12 and 6 o'clock and let it drain all night. In the morning when I unscrew the filter, NO oil drains down from the filter. Takes a little more time but worth it.
The pieces of place mat go under the filter and let it drain into a small bucket.

 

I guess I am just old school.I just slide a drain pan under filter,replace it and then spray area down with brake clean.Easy Peasy plus it cleans the road grime off the lower front of engine.

 

Cool idea! JR

 

Cut down Dickies BBQ cup. Finally found a use for the collection.

 

I cut the bottom of a 2l bottle and then cut a channel halfway through the side from the bottom.

 

I use the oil spill rags .My son gives me some he is in oil burner repair. I put one under bike,pull filter and wipe up excess.Usually only lose a little so you can tear off spot where oil dripped and use rest of rag next time. I make more of a mess trying to fit something under filter .Believe me I tried everything I am better off removing filter and lifting it as soon as its off .
