Buy new so it is CLEAN. Stick the straw into the oil filler hole and manually pump out a small amount of excess oil. You can remove exactly the amount of oil that you want. No mess and you can buy a spray bottle for under two bucks. I store it in my oil drain pan with all of my other oil changing supplies....just in case. I’ve used it maybe three times in 35 years of motorcycling.
This is actually a very good idea. I was able to use this for my other bike (non CB). But, for CB, it's very difficult to stick the straw all the way to the place where we can pump it out. Unless you have a very thin/slim straw, long and flexible enough for you to get to the oil.
