Rare Earth Magnet Oil Sump Plug - SV650.org

05-02-08, 12:06 AM

Hey guys, I'm looking to get an oil sump plug with rare earth magnet so that it picks up some of the muck floating around the engine. After seeing all the crap on a magnet after an oil change, I'd like to get one to - as I intend to keep this SV for a long while and want to keep it running forever.

I tried going through the service manuals, but couldn't find info about the size/type of plug needed - does anyone know the specs of the plug needed? Or have experience using a magnet oil sump plug in their SV? Or know of where to find one appropriate for an SV?

Thanks a bunch guys!

Mines a pointy, but I'm pretty sure my (stock) one is magnetic; you often find a couple of tiny bits of filling stuck to the end of it.

Yeah I think pointies are magnet. Anyone know the measurement/specs of a curvy sump plug?
