BMW Triumphant

Thinking a bit ahead, preparing to change oil for winter layup later this fall.
Drain plug: looks like a 10mm hex is needed. Anybody know the torque value on installation?
Oil Filter: it's behind a plastic panel on the left. Looks like the panel can be removed by removing two bolts with Torx head. Torque value?
Filter looks like it could be removed with a strap wrench rather than the steel wrench I used on the 2011 RT. Comments or recommendations?
Edit: anybody know the installation torque for the filter?
Procedure Hints: very welcome, if you have any.
Don't know why this info is missing from the owner's manual...and yes I generally don't do much of my own maintenance.
