I time sert'ed the drain plug in my KX250, have had no issues since. I got a kit on amazon.

Also, you can get a timesert in just about any length that you would like. Keensert, ez-loks etc. are all good but you should buy the installation tool or sinking in the tabs can go wrong.
If you search for "kent moore thread" on Ebay you can find good deals. Kent Moore made insert kits for car dealerships using timeserts. These kits tend to end up on Ebay a lot. I bought my huge kit for $100. It has M6, M8, and M10 plus 3 other larger metric sizes.
Having said that, someone mentioned locktite situations being bad, this I agree with.
It only takes 1 piece of metal shaving to destroy a bottom end.
