XBR500 magnetic sump plug
« on: April 29, 2016, 06:15:25 PM »
Gold Plug claim to have the best, but quite expensive. Their plug for the XBR is the MP-01 (12 x 1.5)

This retailer eBay's them at just £11.00 - result!

Or go to their own website and pay by bank transfer, so Mr. eBay and Mr. PayPal don't get your cash- great comms & standard delivery for £3.20.

I've got my first oil change on the 40k mike XBR coming up. Not sure how old the oil is, but I've put in the magnetic plug and I'll be interested to see what it catches. Maybe post a pic, so others can make their own judgements.

If it's the same thread and size as that for a CB250RS I'll post you one for free.

Are you saying you don't rate them then, Dick, and/or that you've got one lying about and your very generously giving it away?

Not at all, I definitely do rate them. It's a brand new unused M & P one 12mm X 1.5 pitch. If you want it buckshee PM me your name/address and I'll stick it in the post to you !.  Regards D.

I've already got mine sorted, but I'm sure there'll be someone else to take you up on your generous offer.
