oil change drain funnel............
has anyone used the oil drain catcher oil funnel that h-d has.......its the one that has the small drain hose at the end and its to help when you take off the oil filter to reduce the mess and costs around $21.00........or is there a homemade idea that you guys use..............thanks

I bought the HD $21 one. Bought it after the 5th oil change and resultant mess. Haven't used it yet, waiting for the next oil change interval.
I own a machine shop and tried to come up with all kinds of 'pans' to catch the oil from the filter. Nothing worked well. I hope the HD one does.
I will definitely post to this thread when I try it if someone else hasn't in the meantime.

I bought the orange oil change thingy funnel when I had a couple of softails, and it worked great for them. Traded them both in on my TriGlide, and the first time I tried to change oil - what a mess! Went searching for answers, and the Wiz (and others on the TrikeTalk forum) suggested tilting the bike, as the funnel is designed for oil change on a bike on a kickstand, where the trike is changed flat. I thought it was a little crazy, but sliding my small floor jack under the right rear and tilting the bike and voila! - the orange funnel thingy works just like it did on the softail on its kickstand.
