Where the plugs you replaced still in good nic? Do you think the new plug is better or were the old plugs shagged?

gino

Looking at  the old plug , looks fine . I get a bit anal when it comes to changing the oil , filter and plugs and today i thought i'de lash out on the plugs !

Anal is good... especially with a bike that is so expensive to fix if they break...

Thanks for the post, my bike is due for service i'll get some iridiums thrown in then [drink]

I tried them earlier in the year when my bike was going through it's starter issues.
Didn't really get the use out of them cause plugs were fouling, $30-$40 wasted.
I will try them next service though, you'll have to make sure your shop has them as they are not standard issue.

Not cheap at $16 bucks a pop but hey, we got performance motors and if thats  what makes them happy , so be it! [roll]

$16 a plug is pretty good. The SS is due for the iridiums next service and they want to sting me $30 a plug and there is 8 :o :o :o.
