[Review] CJ Designs Oil Tank Drain Hose Kit

Changing the oil on your KTM LC8 Adventure engine can be a time consuming process. Thanks to CJ Designs, with a simple install and quick modification, the Oil Tank Drain Hose Kit can be installed to save you time and energy down the road. The Drain Hose Kit essentially re-routes the drain of your oil tank, making it accessible without removing tanks/fairings/etc.

The braided stainless steel hose with a plastic cover ensures a lasting product and wont compromise your bike. The plastic cover ensures that the line will not mar up anything it rubs on. After installing and testing many products from CJ Designs, it is easy for me to emphasize that he produces nothing short of high quality and well-built products.

He puts time, effort, and care into simple products, which is evident in the way his products appear. Even this simple drain hose kit has a sleek and elegant look.



The modification that needs to be made to your Adventure bike in order for the Drain Hose to fit is a simple cut on your upper skid plate/tank bracket. Although CJ Designs sends a paper template, I was able to just make a cut after looking at what needed to be modified and it worked out just fine. If you file down the rough edges, it’s hard to tell that the plate has been modified.

The orange hose end plug is a nice touch and is even pre-drilled for safety wire. Installing the Oil Tank Drain Hose Kit on your LC8 Adventure will not only save you time on future oil changes, it will make less of a mess when changing the oil.

Along with the Oil Tank Drain Hose Kit, be sure to check out more CJ Designs products for your motorcycle. From function to quality, you won’t be disappointed in a CJ Designs product.
