The BSX-Series is the latest in engine oil drain valve innovation from Fumoto, designed with motorcycle owners in mind.

If a powersports dealer cares about it, MPN covers it.

The new Fumoto BSX series of valves takes the best of the SX series and puts it in a smaller envelope for motorcycles and other small engines. It combines the compact design of the SX-Series with a sleek new look that is perfect for space-limited oil drain locations, such as those found on motorcycles.

With the 360° rotation feature, a design that originated at Fumoto with the SX-Series, obstructions do not prevent installation and the valve can be oriented in any direction.

The BSX-Series is available for most Kawasaki, Honda, Yamaha and Suzuki motorcycle engines. The BSX-Series uses the same trademarked technology that allows all Fumoto valves to go on quick, and last throughout a lifetime of use.
