I believe they sell a combo kit and i think they might switch a few out if you need a special size. they are nice folks. |

I had to do my drain plug on my old tuber. The drain plugs are the same on the XB's primary and swingarm drains aswell. Here's the kit I used. The Timesert kits are expensive but are the only way to repair the drain plugs in my opinion. Cheers Jodie http://www.timesert.com/html/drainplug.html

I got a new Timesert kit on ebay for $99, which I think is $10-20 cheaper than list price. |

Oops, I've suppressed that part of my life.

Then someone has to resurrect it... BTW, '06 Uly #2 has been behaving himself regarding his various threaded orifices. Thankfully. --Doc |
