You need to find a VStar forum my man. We talk about Suzukis here. If you want, I can tell you how to disassemble a C50 final drive which is not applicable to your Yamaha and will likely get you lost with parts scattered all over your garage.
Drain plugs are usually accompanied by a crush washer. Crush washers wear out, and sometimes they get lost when a fluid change is done. If yours is missing a crush washer, that COULD be your problem.
