Magnetic sump plug
Can anyone tell me if my 2015 1200rt-lc is fitted with a magnetic sump plug as standard?

Switched oil drain and final drive plugs for DIMPLE drain plugs, much more powerful than stock

Many thanks for the helpful replies. This is a wonderful forum for a new(ish) 1200rt owner.

Re: Magnetic sump plug
Decided to order a magnetic sump plug for my 2012 Camhead, https://www.nippynormans.com/k1200s/wun ... 000-series
Wemoto list this one, https://www.wemoto.com/bikes/bmw/r_1200 ... g_magnetic but by the time £3.00 postage is added, there's not much between the two.
They are both M16 x 1.5mm.
