[QUOTE="Michelle, post: 703611, member: 16598"] Whenever I've enquired at local shops about a magnetic sump plug for my old kdx, they've recommended me going to a wreckers with mine to match it up. I haven't got around to doing it & probably won't, but do think about it sometimes. My husband's old TM250 has got one & it's brilliant. I don't know how much metal shaving he gets on it these days, but know when the bike was new the other year, he got a lot the first couple of oil changes. Sorry, couldn't resist (my bike's a 99 & winter's the best time for riding, but then again, what does snow look like?) Dirt Bike Dave, helicoils are common here, too, so I presume they are in Aussie. Hmmm, thinking about what thread - I'm thinking (female logic here) coarse. I'd imagine a fine thread would be easier to strip out due to muck at the bottom of the cases & how often the plug comes out (and the angle you have to get your body into to undo the bloody thing). That's my opinion & worth about less than nothing & what the hell do I know (not much) - but I'm interested to find the "correct" answer. BTW, you should be able to get a medium thread too, from memory. Michelle [/QUOTE]
