moss sells a valve that you can replace your drain plug with. when you want to drain the oil you just turn the valve by hand. can't get much more easier than that.

I had a drain valve on my Harley to make that simple oil change a 'No-Brainer'... problem is, somehow, the valve got opened when I was on a dirt road and I was stuck.

My worry would be that the valve (like the one on my HD) could get opened by accident and you dump out all that important fluid on the ground and then you are stuck!

Take a wrench to the plug... Like Phil states... cant get much easier than that!!

I changed my oil for the first time today and all I have to say is make sure that you budget some time. You have to remove both skid plates to drain the oil. The placement of the oil filter is probably the dumbest location that I have ever seen, not to mention I think that the Incredible Hulk screwed mine on at the factory!
