Anyone know the threadsize size of the oil temp sensor (thermistor part# 552.1.045.2A)?

lol i just shitcanned a broken one that i replaced. 

i believe it's 12m x1 but don't quote me.  you can remove it pretty easily, just lean the bike far enough to keep the oil away or just drain and re pour the oil when finished.

it WILL twist off and break so don't overtorque it.

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

Called dealer and they said the service manual states M12 X 1.5. I'll go with that since Motogadget has a temp sensor in that size...they don't have one in 12 x 1. Thanks!
