[GWTrike]

I changed oil this week for the first time since owning the bike and noticed that the oil drain plug has a bulbous end, but it didn't seem to be magnetized. Held it up to the metal fenders on my trike outrigger and didn't feel a pull. Should it be magnetized? If so, I'll buy a new one and install it the next time.

Some are but some arn't. You can put one in and it will catch ferris metal trash.

OEM plug is NOT magnetized.

Nor do you need one. A good oil filter "takes care" of things!
