Motorcycle Screw in Oil Funnel ADAPTER

thingiverse

Here's another adapter, a screw in oil funnel that fits a friends bandit 1200 instead of modifying an existing great model. Modifying wasn't too difficult at first but maintaining breather functionality was tough due to the smaller size and print quality. Thread size will need to be given for future sizes but that would require some thread dia, pitch, and time. A new thread diameter M24 x 1.5 is added. The original model has been updated to make the breather more clear. A request led to the addition of a thread size M18 x 1.5 in May and another M27 x 3.0 was also requested. Another M27 x 3.0 Adaptor_EXTENDED has also been added with further details on request but no test bike exists. A new M20 x 2.5 adapter is being tried for some of the features of this model. Again, a printed version could be printed with care either way and when done properly, would work smoothly. There are few things to remember with instructions; outside thread should break easily. The intention was for ease in printing either way, raising above thread on finish and a cut around to make easier printings more effective and smooth. At the top of adapter is a tube with a chamfer. This where the funnel seals against the adapter as printed PLA but little ABS usage shows much promise that would do good. Little joy comes from working with PLA which may lead it into being the best but only works better in theory because nobody tested thread size before or tried to fit the new thread size of 1.5 to an M20. Bread channel adjustments on slicing may require the use adjustment as you cannot print too small otherwise breaking threads is certain during tightening, and if one tightens wrong the threading can easily cross while doing that on bike screw in is most difficult. Most things that have threading like funnels need only a few but this does make it more likely that cross-threading occurs as it makes them weaker to do such actions and makes things quite strong
