Right all sorted! I used the leaning bike method combined with a syringe with a 6inch hose on the end put through the oil filler hole. It was fiddly and uncomfortable but I kind of used my body to lean the bike on then sucked the oil out. It took a while for the oil to drain in so had to put up with a 180kg odd bike on top of me for a few minutes but it worked hahaha.
Lessons I learnt:
1. As someone suggested get the biggest syringe you can (I didn’t so it took a few goes)
2. Warmer oil would have been easier to work with but didn’t want to risk burning myself on the engine!!!
3. Don’t overfill in the first place
Thanks for all the replies everyone!
