I got OEM plugs with mag tips pressed in off this guy. Also the trans plug is the same as the motor oil plug on the 04-05 450R.

Magic raceing also carrys mag plugs.

Just FYI...

I had the pleasure of spending about three hours one weekend fishing the little magnet out of the bottom of the motor on our yfz.

While changing the oil my son noticed that the pressed in magnet was missing, and sure nuff it was stuck to the oil pickup in the sump.

Heck it might have stuck there forever but the thought of it going thru the transmission scared me too much to risk it. I was real close to splitting the cases to get it out when I finally was able to get it to stick to a toy magnet on a stick that belonged to my daughter.

Why would you want a magnetic drain plug ?

If there is any metal in your engine,it will surely stick the the magnetic flywheel:D
