I tried the search, does not work well. I am trying to find the 0-ring size for the drain plug for an XB. I should be able to get one at the hw store right ? If anyone can show my how to get a hit for this using search, i would appreciate it. Seem like 'and' and 'whole word' options do not really work ?? thx MDM |

I think the inside diameter is 1/2". The trick will be finding one with the proper cross section. I'm going to guess that the cross section is between .030" and .040". I found O'rings at PepBoys, but they had a thicker cross section, than the stock one; but did work. H-D sells the correct size O'ring for 25cents, and the whole drain plug assembly (O'ring and thread sealant installed) for $2.50. |

The first and last time I went to my dealer for an oil change, they said it would be two weeks, two order the o-ring. I don't visit my dealer anymore unless I want to buy HD baby clothes.. |

This may sound crazy, but go by your local Scuba Diving shop. They always stock tons of o-rings in an assortment of sizes. Beware though of getting interested in diving. It's an addicting and expensive hobby, just like motorcycles. (Message edited by spectrum on November 10, 2006) |

Just call them and ask for that part number and see what they say, don't tell them what bike it is for. Hell, give me thier number, I'll call. |

I'll call twice. This could be fun, maybee I'll ask for some fork fluid for my springer while I'm at it.
