Hey

The 10mm hole in the drain plug is a bit sloppy, slightly worried she could round, which would be a pain.

Anyone tried one of there?

I prefer the external hex head for exactly the reason you state. The oem Ducati ones are not very strong and it only takes a bit too much effort when tightening to get them stuck and cause all sorts of hassle trying to get it out next time! Just make sure you get a magnet version and not a "race" version without one for road use.
