    Hi
    Anyone already tried to mount a magnetic drain sump on a pulse adrenaline 125?
    Does anyone know whats the thread size of the plug?
    The plug is M14x12, but I don't know if it 1,25mm or 1,5mm thread size. I tried to measure, but it's difficult to get sure because is very very small.
    Thank you
    Mário

    I bought one from here for my Qlink XF200.

    Check to be sure that your bike uses the same motor as a Suzuki DR125 (I think it does) and you should be able to find your plug. My plug did not replace the regular drain plug but a smaller one located by it.

    Thank you david3921 for your reply.
    I found in eBay:
    http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...:X:RTQ:GB:1123

    The seller told me that Suzuki usually uses 5 different sizes of plug:

    M10-1.5
    M12-1.25
    M12-1.5
    M14-1.25
    M14-1.5

    I'm pretty sure that my plug is M14 (because I already measured it), but I don't know if thread size is 1,25 or 1,5

    If you have one near by, take the plug to a hardware store and find a nut that matches the thread. You could also search on the web as to how to measure a bolt to determine it's pitch.

    Hi again
    Now I'm sure that the thread size is 1,25mm
    I measured the distance of 4 threads, and I got 5mm! So the oil plug of pulse adrenaline 125 is a M14 x 1,25mm.
    davidqc the plug from http://www.chinesemotorcyclepartsonl...XF125GY-2B.php is magnetic? it's a bit expensive, I'll try to find a cheaper one.
    If I found it, I'll post here!
    Thank you

    A magnetic sump plug for the Pulse Adrenalin 125 is available here: http://www.chinesemotorcyclepartsonl...XF125GY-2B.php

    They cost £18.17 plus P&P.

    The price of convenience (and a sure fit) is cost. [old chinese proverb!]
