after looking for magnetic drain plugs for the vision and other toys in the garage and not finding any. I sourced some 1/4 X 1/2" magnets, ordered 20, gotta have some spares you know. using a letter "D" drillbit  the magnets fit very securely in the drainplugs. this is probably not necessary but we serviced my buddies new bmw and it had all magnetic drain plugs.So as I service the toys they will all get modified.

if you have a parts bike, pull the magnetic drain plug out of the rear end & use it for the oil plug. it fits perfectly
