Fr some reason on Hondas that I have seen, they are set up for draining on the centerstand. Yea wiggling them back and forth may get you some more oil, but I doubt its an ounce. If you drained the oil then set a clean pan underneath overnight, Id bet youd get more. Oil seems to never quit draining thru a hole lol.
I hear you, Ferret. I'm just a little anal about these things, but I know you're never going to get all the old oil out. Like you I find something else to do while I give it extra time to drain. One thing I'm sure of, us DIY'ers let it drain a lot longer than the dealers do!
