    Does anyone know the thread specs for a husky drain plug used on the mid to late 70's motors? I want to make a threaded tube to drain the oil past my skid plate. I have one of these for my KTM and it works great. Lay the bike down, unscrew the drain plug, screw in the plastic tube, stand ithe bike back up and drain the oil neatly into a pan or jug.

    Pursuant to Hall's parts lists, the drain plug for mine (81' XC) and yours is the same part number - 16 12 537-01. With that being said, my drain plug measurements are 14mm X 25mm (this length includes the magnetic tip - 15mm length w/out including the tip) w/ a 2.0 pitch.
    Hope this helps. Post up photos of project.
