Feuling shorty sump plug.

[Rugged Path]

I have too much free time and so watch installation, maintenance or repair videos for my 2019 M8.
Amongst the myriad of parts they cry out that needs to be changed before disaster strikes you miles from anywhere, one is the subject heading to prevent sumping.

The bike I ride has done 34K miles so far without a hiccup.

Has anyone this side of the pond bothered to take this seriously and changed out the OEM plug?

Not sure what you’re referring to as “sump plug” ?
Sumping has a myriad of causes/fixes. Probably the most likely on your bike, depending when in 2019 it was built is the oil pump. That is definitely worth changing out.
