Default magnetic oil plug

magnetic oil plugs are common on cars and trucks - newer GM trucks come with them stock. I think it's a great idea in a quad or on a bike....especially if you have a small oil capacity, like some of the Honda dirtbikes. we have a couple torn down in the shop now cuz of low oil......but it seems the major damage was caused by small floating or flying parts. I'd buy one for my quad. its an easy way to tell your engines condition, assuming yer changing the oil as recommended....[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

HEY that even LOOKS like a chevy drain plug! whats the thread size on a raptor? the ones at chevy DONT start at 7.95 either.
